Over time, I noticed that some readers of my blog might have gotten the wrong idea that Linda focused her training solely on techniques related to the testicles. As a result, both she and I were accused of having an unhealthy obsession with this area and hatred towards men. However, this is far from the truth. She taught us a comprehensive self defense system, in which the vulnerability of the testicles is just one, albeit important, element. I do realize that my bold and sometimes cheeky writing style may make some readers uncomfortable, but my intention isn't to shy away from such important, often life-saving topics. I aim to share what I learned from Linda’s course openly, which was based on her research findings, real-life experience, and extensive reviews of successful cases, suggesting that targeting the testicles provides the best opportunity for effective defensive counteractions.

Man's eyes can be beautiful, but also important "high balls" target in female self defense |
Every man
fears losing them, protects them anxiously, and our task was to learn how to
create the perfect unexpected “jewel heist”. Do you remember Linda's ideal
deadly sequence for dealing with a dangerous attacker: “Blind him first, then
choke him, and before saying bye-bye, desex him! He cannot rape you if he
cannot see, cannot breathe, and cannot breed!”. Who wouldn’t love her hilarious mottos, mnemonics, and metaphors!
Following the recommended sequence to shut down all vital functions may not always be possible. Some sensitive spots may be more or less accessible, or not accessible at all, during different stages of an attack or in various situations. To open the window of opportunity, the principles of distraction and deception are therefore crucial. I already wrote about Adam's apple a long time ago, but what about the balls?—hmm, I mean eyeballs 😉.
Many
“self-proclaimed experts” often claim that the eyes are the ultimate target in
female self defense, and it's a mistake not to communicate this way. I’ve
received plenty of such comments on my blog. I avoid ranking anything from best
to worst, but saying that “eyes are better-forget testicles” is completely
untrue; this is just someone's opinion, possibly an attempt to avoid feeling
uncomfortable in situations by avoiding discussing the vulnerability of male
genitals.
Consider
these hard facts about eyes: It is almost impossible to employ anything other than
the hand and fingers, and you need to exert precise movement, which can be quite
difficult in a tense situation or in the dark. To do so, you still have to move
your hand quite high, which can be a problem in close quarters or if he is
holding your hands. Those who say testicles are too small targets might forget
that eyeballs are also not very large objects; last time I checked, men are not
big-eyed mignons 😶. The attacker also doesn’t just
stand there; there is a natural protective reflex—he can pry off the hand
performing the eye gouge or blink and move away when something comes close to
his eyes. Don't you do the same? Attacking eyes might be repulsive for some
women, but that can be true for testicles as well.
Regarding
the pros, eyeballs are extremely delicate, highly sensitive sphere organs
protected solely by soft eyelids. A successful blow can result in serious
outcomes, including intense pain, shock, excessive tearing, disorientation, and
possibly temporary or permanent blindness in severe cases. The psychological
effect on the attacker is also significant, inducing a fear comparable to
losing testicles. Play-along tactics, distraction, and deception are often
necessary for the execution of devastating eye attacks.
Nevertheless, the eye sensitivity represents a crucial element in Linda's concept of distraction and deception, which I have already discussed in one part. If an eye attack succeeds, it temporarily stuns him and creates opportunities for follow-up strikes, including targeting our favorite sensitive dangling bits below. The good thing is that there's a convenient distance between the upper and lower parts. He might block one strike, but simultaneously, he's likely to fail to protect the other vulnerable spot, destined for a defeat and possibly losing something even more valuable…
What is
rarely discussed is that male eyes are not only important because they are a
physically vulnerable organ, but also because they provide sight, which can be
easily used to our advantage; to occupy his mind and lower his guard, even
increasing the sensitivity of the testicles due to arousal which is associated with
increased blood flow into the genitals. Remember, men are extremely visually
driven; a trigger of sexual excitement is often necessary to start the sneaky
play strategy. Just a quick glance at a woman’s breasts will make him
preoccupied and thus a much easier opponent.

Mirabelle plums are excellent eye simulants for training serious techniques. |
Like for testicles, she used fruits of appropriate size and texture to mimic the feel of real ones, including texture and resistance before rupture. Litchi fruits would be ideal, but are hard to get. However, Linda's Mirabelle plum tree in her orchard provided plenty of versatile, crushable, disposable training objects. The bigger served as testicles, the smaller as eyes…
Exactly as you write.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, in our Central European space, so-called self-proclaimeds ,,modern self-defences' are very populars, which literally shows nothing but a focus on the eyes, and that too in an absolutely announced, nonsensical and unrealistic attitude and scenario.
They don't understand that there is no one-size-fits-all goal or technique, but every self-defense situation is different and the strategy must be adapted accordingly.
Sometimes it can be the eyes/face, and sometimes the testicles
But, especially in female self-defense, the testicles should be one of the main targets to focus on.
This is because men attack women mainly for sexual motives, and therefore it is necessary for the woman to harm the attacker in exactly the part of the body with which he is threatening her.
It is hard to say why some self-defense instructors ignore this fact and completely neglect the most sensitive spot on the male body, and even discourage women from doing it.
I think it's a combination of not understanding that attacks on women are diametrically opposed to attacks on men because they tend to be sexual in nature.
And it could also be the reason you've already outlined, that by pointing out the immense sensitivity of male testicles, they would be de facto admitting their vulnerability to women.
However, each of these so-called "experts" has only strong talk, and of course none of them would have the courage to test the effectiveness of this without protection on their own skin
Proper self-defense instructors, even ordinary men, should have the courage to admit that testicles are simply very sensitive and advise their girlfriends, wives, daughters, sisters and mothers that in the event of an attack, this is a proper and legitimate target of self-defense.
You, Wendy, are doing a very commendable work in breaking this taboo by teaching young women how to defend themselves through your own experiences and knowledge from Linda's self-defense course.
Yours sincerely Stan.
Hi Stan, thank you very much for your comment.
DeleteIt is true that current self-defense training, not only in Eastern and Central Europe, is making attacking testicles taboo. For “experts,” it is simply more convenient to talk about eyes, just avoiding anything potentially offensive or awkward. What they teach is often more wishful thinking and is designed to grab money. Have any of the instructors actually tested the claimed best techniques in real life, or is it just nonsense? I would quickly demonstrate with a single kick that they are just bullshitting.
Linda conducts research, and her claims are supported by experimental evidence. It takes hard work, but she strives to do it, no matter how difficult. I experienced this firsthand at her course (Thanks, Bob and Peter). It’s encouraging to see there are men out there who understand the essence of this blog and why it’s important to be open and not shy away from the truth.
It's hard to find the courage, but if men want their loved ones to be safe, they must set aside all their fears and reveal their vulnerabilities, including their reproductive organs.
You are also right that there is no one-size-fits-all technique, and such teaching should be as comprehensible as possible, including the eyes.
Thanks again for your support and understanding of what it is about.
Kind Regards, Wendy

ReplyDeleteHi Bogdan, thank you for your comment. I do understand what you say that men feel uneasy reading what I write. Attacking someone's genitals is not an honorable thing, but in certain cases, it is necessary. Using too soft language will do no good, as it also softens the message.
DeleteI do understand that testicles are the source of sperm and the muscular strength, so hurting those soft organs also represents an attack on male pride and ego. The natural design is such that men are more muscular than women, but have a sensitive spot that equalizes the power balance, and it would be stupid for us not to use this vulnerability to our advantage when needed. The misuse of this knowledge is not what I support. Thanks again, and I will be very considerate of the man's balls unless of rapist ;) Regards, Wendy
hi wendy. really unique perspective and a pleasure to read.
ReplyDeleteOn my opinion eye pokes are the mvp of a woman combat strategy for some key reasons.
1) To start if a man gets poked in the eye its almost inevitable beeing stroke in the testicles next. There are just too many angles and options for woman to follow up for guys to react without vision
2) If i fight a girl ready to poke my eyes at moment notice i have to keep a high guard and that means i would have to deal with her testicle tentatives relying on my speed and combat finesse than already been completely ready to block it. If a woman doesnt target the eyes i just cover the groin and trade blows. Even if she had a bit better momentum striking size and power will do the trick. Throat punches can be really annoying but not to the point a light touch can totally disrupt me. And this is really huge. A decently trained woman can beat a guy combining eye pokes and testicle shots even if he expects her to fight dirty.
Finally as an extra distraction and deception are absurdly OP. The point its that they good on defense, but its completely unstoppable on offense. distraction may help a woman self her integrity on violent conflict, but with complete certainty will allow her to be the aggresor against any one she choose and get away with it. its ten times better as the attacker than as the defender. i think you not yet willing to give this part a big thought.
Hi André, thank you. Yes, taking out his vision will open a window of opportunity for follow-up strikes, and of course, testicles are the prime choice. The eye strike should also not be telegraphed and should come unexpectedly. A man can protect his eyes if he suspects the woman's intention. A quick combination of fast striking is the key. The advantage is the distance from the testicles to the eyes. It is dirty fighting, but we are talking about serious situations and a dangerous attacker, so fairness is not an issue. This is not a martial art. Regards, Wendy
DeleteI experimented it on my own flesh, if i keep a high guard, sometimes i just too slow to block or dodge a kick to the testicles. Or even on the leg. Its funny how mindblowing it sounds, but a woman can realistically beat a man on a fight. Specially if he is forced to keep a high guard.
Deleteif you could only pick one which would you choose.
ReplyDeleteHi Alex, you mean like target? Testicles, of course, have perfect placement, superb sensitivity, and the versatility of possible attacks.... Nothing beats the Jet2 holiday and testicles as a target ;) Regards, Wendy
Deletei kinda disagree about the placement tbh. but sensitivity is not wrong

ReplyDeleteHi wendy, I am in a conundrum, I live in a co-ed dorm and am very much in love with this girl Brittany S. But she just loves to bash my large swinging pendulum type testicles. i am helpless as I have very low hanging and sensitive balls and also I dont want to hurt her. she says its empowering for women to hit men in their manhoods as men have been oppressing women for centuries. sometimes she ties me up while I am sleeping and I wake up with her fist in my balls. sometimes she pulls me around using my gonads. she seems to love it.
ReplyDeleteso my question is wendy, how do I save my nuts from her and also dont hurt her feelings?
Hi Bogdan, my answer is that you cannot save your nuts in this case! Just kidding ;) The best thing to do is to talk to her (kindly); she cannot do these things without consent. This is only reserved for some dangerous assailants. You seem to be a nice guy, so I do not see a problem if you agree to help her with some self-defense practice and gain female empowerment. But she must understand that what she does is highly dangerous and can cause irreparable injury. Teach her what is still OK and what is not; that's my advice. Regards, Wendy
DeleteHi Wendy, who do you think would win in a mortal fight between a man and a woman, if both are completely naked?
ReplyDeleteHi, this depends on the skills of both opponents and other circumstances. But surely being naked means much greater advantage for a woman than for men, as the most sensitive male organ just hangs there unprotected, swinging around. If it gets in her tight grip, it is a fight stopper, and he is at her mercy; game over. Also, overprotection of that spot and fear of being struck there will have a negative impact on his fighting ability. Regards, Wendy
DeletePor el lado el hombre tienes razón ..pero obvias el lado de la mujer .que tiene muchas debilidades también..si al principio le haces saber que la golpeas en esa zonas..ella también intentará proteger y tendrá preocupación...
Deletei mean the tight grip can be let go if you were punched
DeleteI’ve never had a mortal fight, but my husband enjoys tussling naked with me. We’ve done this many times periodically over our marriage and I’ve won every time. I win the same way every time. I get close to him, grab him, strike him somewhere to stun him, the nose or groin, then grab his genitals with my hand, at which point he gives up and begs me to stop. He’s avoided me by running away, but he’s never been able to defeat me by getting me into a submission hold. The times he’s stayed to face me I’ve never lost, at least yet.
DeleteI know if we were in a mortal fight, he would be trying to knock me out, but I don’t think he’d be able to land one before I grabbed ahold of him, and if I can grab his body, it’s pretty much inevitable I’m going to get his balls if he’s naked. And if I can grab his balls in my hand, the fight will be over for him
wow, sally, how quick does he tap.
DeletePara empezar la mujer nunca ha aprendido a defender su parte baja instintivamente...y los pechos son una gran desventaja
