i pretty much agree, aikido as a self defence technique really only works on drunks, people who are horribly out of shape, or those who are frothing at the mouth mad. makes sense why women learn it though. they're mostly going to be accosted by those exact types, and if someone who isn't one attacks them then no martial art will really help them much without tons of dedication and training to overcome the physicallity differences.

yeah that's why i described it as outdated. lots of women learn it but it really isnt that effective in truly dangerous scenarios. i think its more about self confidence and being reassured that you can go out at night and not be scared shitless like a shaking chihuahua.
