That was....retarded (for lack of a better word)

I would actually find it much nicer to see more female traceurs. Continue doing what you love. That guy just has personal issues and is insecure with getting showed up by anyone else that he sees as lower than him and that he should rethink what parkour is if he has problem with girls

This has been discussed numerous times before. In fact, we, as traceuses, also have our own forum; http://www.americanparkour.com/smf/index.php/board,146.0.html

Please utilize the search function to find previous discussions of this topic.

Responding to OP: I'm a girl. I do parkour. Nothing anyone can do about it.

Alec Furtado · « **Reply #5 on:** November 15, 2009, 10:49:56 AM »

Yea seriously. It's Youtube comments... not even something worth a grain of salt. Plus,

So either way that's obviously that's absolute garbage.

Ok, I'll say it..

I don't think women should be involved in parkour.

If that's not a joke, why?

sonniho · « **Reply #8 on:** November 15, 2009, 11:38:36 AM »

Yes, why should not be involved in Parkour???

Thanks for your comments! And Rebecca - thanks for posting the link! I will have a look around, but I post it here because I also want men to answer my questions.

If not, I don't think you should be involved in parkour.

Don't worry about it, people on youtube are stupid.

Never ever read Youtube comments.

Ever.

Worse comes to worse sub to is videos and give good advise and tips

Well theres a good example of how our world is turning out. The women was made from the mans rib, not from his head to be superior, not from his feet to be walked on but from his side to be equal. It may sound cheesy but it is true. Well what do you expect form youtube, a bunch of people who have nothing better to do than post a bunch of hate comments because they have nothing better to do.

Jake Mathew · « **Reply #14 on:** November 15, 2009, 04:52:20 PM »

Youtube commenters are the embodiment of the world's population of ignorance. Its like asking a monkey for advice on buying a house or something. Don't take anything they say to heart, hell don't even read it.

I loved the video thanks for sharing your movement with us!! You have a great running stride. I keep looking for stuff to critique in this video but I can't find anything I really don't like. It was beautifully shot the movements were smooth and competent. There is always room for improvement just keep at it and you can only get better!!

give one good reason why not?

Brett Robert · « **Reply #19 on:** November 15, 2009, 06:07:11 PM »

Youtube comments are totally where I go for scholarly discourse, there or XBox Live.

Parkour is for young and old, men and women, people of all creeds, colors and ability level so long as they are able-bodied enough to perform at least some basic movements.
