buy a gun, ditch notions of masculinity based on being able to hurt other people and join a gym for a contact martial art like judo, boxing or muay thai - the thing about learning to fight is every teacher will be teaching you the discipline to know to avoid one at all costs.

You don’t, this is who you are and all you’ll ever be

Hey anon,
I live in a midsized city and have never been in a fight. I have some nervous system issues as well as a congenital foot problem. I'd recommend seeing a physical therapist who can help you tailor your exercise routine to your own particular needs. It's helped me a lot and will help you more than whatever program a roided-out fitsagram influencer will try to sell you.
Just make sure to tell him it's because you want the best body you can get and not because you want to win a fight kek

Best of luck!

This probably isn’t the best place to ask that question. A lot of people here aren’t exactly the definition of healthy(no offense). Your concerns are valid and the “lol just buy a gun” response is something you often see from people online who don’t really understand the legal implications or responsibilities involved. If you’re considering a weapon for self-defense, something like a taser or pepper spray might be more practical. At the same time continuing to work on your physical fitness and self-defense training can really help build your confidence.

'just buy a gun' is relevant if its the US, its not relevant otherwise. Assuming the OP is US though no amount of gym or martial art is going to defend you against the average aggressor if they have a gun.

i also used to feel like a powerless pussy but that was mainly because i had no other ideology other than being anti-right reading theory and actually becoming a communist changed me and made me more confident in my self it also made me (somewhat) less doomer about the world, truth is you dont need masculinity you need focus

Lots of cities have leftist boxing clubs or self defense associations, might be worth a look, it also doubles as getting to socialize with like minded people so you can eventually find an org in which you can learn and be part of the struggle

Tasers are shit and illegal in a lot of places but I second you on the pepper spray rec, this shit is the bomb. Just gotta know how to use it.

>leftist boxing clubs or self defense associations
Like Unicorn Riot? That’s the single worst option. Just go to a regular boxing or MMA gym, it doesn’t matter that everyone is RW. That’s just the reality of those places

Like what?? From experience those groups are all right although your mileage may vary, the good thing is that it's fucking cheap because no one is trying to make money while the gyms will rob you blind
