I've recently joined a local fencing salle. Turns out fencing is just as much fun now as it was when I was sixteen. I'm taking the beginner's course, and it seems to be coming back gradually. This is mostly due to our excellent instructor, Jean-Christophe, and his outrrrrrrageous accent.

Tonight's session mostly involved the the beat attack, which involved Jean-Christophe using the word "beat" a lot with great urgency. In French, la bitte means something not polite at all, so I was grinning filthily beneath my mask. At one point he said it three times in a row, at high volume. I guess it's inevitable that I'll be thinking about cocks every time I make this attack now. But will this make my fencing better, or worse?

Better. Swords are penises, after all.

Oh my...you have great will power not to chortle or cackle too.

Unfortunatly, my fencing experience has mainly involved my watching other people, or being used as a prop in a display (off hand parrying wench don't ya know!)

I hope you're right.

But I think the reverse might be true: penises are swords, but not all swords are penises.

I wondered at the time what you would think! I hope your classes are going well.

Fair enough. Then this begs the question how penis-like is your sword? *wiggly eyebrows*
