Yes, I am a chick...a girl, a gal, a lady, a woman, what have you. The early days of UFC was just painful to watch. I have a hard time watching someone get the blood pounded out of them, but I'm getting used to it now ;) I have done some kickboxing for fitness, some Muay Thai and also roller derby, so I'm not opposed to contact or smacking peeps or aggressive sports, it's just the ear splattering blood gushing jaw breaking shiznat that turned me off at first. I rarely take offense to anything, so no sweat.
