You back?
Not really, I just came back online because I noticed something big happening in a fandom I left three years ago. As someone who had some weight in their voice, I had to say something, but now that that something has been said I don’t think I will be online much either. I kind of moved away from tumblr already, after all.

I may have little to no experience in Specord and I may have left the fandom almost three years ago now, but around or before the time of Specord we also had the forums on JB2448’s website; Crt and I (Falneou17) were mods on the forums. We did not have a lot of direct/one-on-one contact with each other over this period of time, admittedly, but I can at least second his tendencies to play the victim and dance around the fact that he made a mistake whenever he did. I don’t have screencaps of these moments as the posts that made him look bad were conveniently deleted by Crt himself, so take my word how you want to take it.
To those affected by Crt’s actions over the years: I may not have a lot of room to talk here as I haven’t been involved in the PokeSpe for three years, but for what it is worth I am deeply sorry that you had to go through all of that.

I spend a fair amount of time teaching women to kick men in the balls, and I’ve learned that this activity tends to generate controversy. Here, according to actual adults who have actually said these things to me, are some reasons you should not kick a guy in the balls:
1. It will make him angry.
I should hope so. I’m not sending him a friend request. If I kick him hard enough, there’s a good chance I’ll render him unable to act upon his anger. That’s my goal. His feelings are his problem.
2. It will make him hurt you worse.
Statistics say otherwise. And anyway, he’s already demonstrated his desire to hurt me. Why should I give him carte blanche to decide how much he’s going to hurt me? I’d rather be an active participant in that decision-making process.
3. Groin kicks aren’t really that devastating; I’ve seen lots of guys get hit in the balls and it hardly fazed them.
This response (almost universally from men) is so common I’ve come to think of it as “groinsplaining”—you can see it many of the YouTube comments in the videos linked above. These people rarely volunteer to demonstrate their own iron balls in a real kicking situation, but they confidently assert that men in general can shrug off all kinds of damage to the groin. All I can say is, I’ve seen two-year-olds take down grown men via the groin, and toddlers don’t even have any training. I do. I like my odds.
4. We shouldn’t be teaching people how to kick men in the balls; we should be teaching men not to do anything that would make us have to kick them in the balls.
Hey, that’s a great idea! Do you have a detailed, research-based plan for teaching all men everywhere to behave themselves all the time? And do you have funding for your efforts, and buy-in from politicians and community leaders, and a network of trained, experienced instructors who can effect this change? If not, better get started on your grant proposal. In the meantime, I’ll just be over here teaching people how to kick guys in the balls. That’s what I do.
5. Telling people they should kick an assailant in the balls is the same as telling victims who didn’t kick their assailant in the balls that they did something wrong.
No, it isn’t. It’s a practical way to reduce the number of future victims by giving them more viable options to disrupt and survive an assault.
Fact: We have the power to damage the bodies of men who try to hurt us. You’re saying we shouldn’t let people use that power. I’m offering people more choices; you’re trying to take them away.
6. Kicking a guy in the balls just makes the world a more violent place.
Maybe, in the short term. But if it stops him from killing someone, or putting them in the hospital, isn’t that a net win for non-violence? The Dalai Lama thinks so.
One in four women will have good reason to kick a guy in the balls at some point in her life. Luckily, it’s not rocket science. Anyone can do it! And ball-kicking’s efficacy is beyond dispute, as the men of MMA so nobly helped us illustrate here. Gentlemen, if any of you are reading this, and conscious: Cheers, and get well soon (the non-wife-beaters among you, anyway).

I wonder what our world would currently be like if J.K. Rowling had just let the man who spent seven years making the HP Lexicon publish his encyclopedia instead of bringing him to court and blocking his publication so that she could be considered the only official source of all things Harry Potter as she tweets out updates on Dumbledore’s sex life and wizards shitting in the streets…

Look at where you get your information. Make sure it’s reliable. Stop causing more pain to people already in a rough place.
