It should be noted that traditioning in most martial arts including Muay Thaiwhich mostly is not a martial art anymore due to the adoption of instinctive fighting techniques of the upper bodyboxing as it is calledand many other martial art techniques not exclusive to Maui Boran or Maui Tha etc women are not considered true martial artists anyway That is because the arts are designed used mastered and needed by men and its techniques are supposed to play to the strengths of a man A womans training dating back centuries was an emphasis on wounding the target with a basic attack and running This is one of the many reasons escorts where provided It is sad what has happened to Karate and TKD in the modern schools on average in the emphasis on sport and money from children practionersby way of parents unconditioned elders and women But that is another debate Regardless female fighters are not to show any signs of claiming equality to a male fighter since the potential is clearly lacking Like it or not gender is of the physical mental and in my opinion the spiritual as well Play to its strengths not its weaknesses It is the opposite sex that helps you compensate for your weaknesses due to your gender
