[QUOTE=Eddie;916369]Hardwork,
Chinese people has long been borrowing things from other cultures and made it their own.

Not really that much, neighbors Country did that with what China had to offer.

So many examples, look at Buddism – heck, even Chinese language – Motor cycle is mó tu ch (sounds like motor), logic is luó ji … so many things.

You are here referring to neologism, which are usually referred to words describing objects or concepts unknown to China before, hence they were forced to borrow.

Even in Martial Arts, this happened. If you ask your average person on the street in China where Taiquandao (Taekwondo) comes from, I bet you they will tell you it comes from china. I have spoken to many people who didn’t even know that TKD came from Korea.

That doesn’t say much except for the general education on martial arts.

The point is, they are so used to taking things from other ‘cultures’ and make it part of their own.

again,.. read above

So, the idea of mixing MA styles, is not foreign to Chinese “masters”. If they find better training methods form other styles, they would incorporate it into their own style, even if it came from other countries. I’ve learned a Pek Gwar Double hand Saber form, which came from the Japanese sword styles and was incorporated into a CMA system by the Chinese Grandmaster many years ago. He obviously thought that in that specific weapon style, their own style lacked a few things which the Japanese fighters might have perfected. Nothing wrong with that.

One of the few exceptions I believe (good one for sure)

You should really do yourself a favor and come to China some time to experience it for yourself. Your idea of “ traditional” CMA might change once you understand the Chinese “tradition” and language.

And after few months in China you believe you do understand the Chinese “tradition” and language??
What would be the Chinese “tradition” in a Country that changes every day that goes by and most of all in what is supposed to be the “New China”?
Perhaps, if someone was to understand better the Chinese “tradition”, would be better off spending some time in Taiwan or HongKong?

Eddy, I apologize for commenting your post, I just wanted to express my point of view, nothing more.

Be Well

[QUOTE=lkfmdc;916314]LMFAO… you’d think maybe some “glorified kickboxers” raped you in the ass the way you carry on, oh, wait, you WOULD LIKE THAT WOULDN"T YOU ? :D[/QUOTE]

You should really keep your gay fantasies to yourself as this is still a martial arts forum.

However feel free to share your perversions with your own “students” in your kickboxing “gym”.

Dude, this is 2009, Penn just won an Oscar for playing Harvey Milk, you don’t have to hide in the closet anymore, people won’t hate you (any more than they already do) for being gay :stuck_out_tongue:

Don’t tell me that is your real name. You must be proud to have a famous Hollywood actor play you.

I have news for you “Harvey”, it is because of people like you and your internet promotion of your gay fantasies, not to mention your glorified kickboxing classes, that us heterosexuals are now hiding in the closet.

So cool down and lay off those BJJ classes for a couple of weeks:D

I commend you for trying to once again take your anti-psychotic meds but I think, based upon your last post, that the dose is wrong! SEEK HELP!
