Sexism and sexual abuse in martial arts



Hello all

I recently had a bad experience. Here's an article I wrote about it for Nick Porter's blog The Way You Practice.

https://thewayyoupractice.com/2019/08/12/culture-shock-guest-article-sexism-and-sexual-predation-against-women-in-martial-arts/

I've had a few enquiries by people who want to share, translate, link to, mention, or otherwise use this article. 

I think this is an important subject, and I very much want people to read and share it. I would like to be credited by the name Violet Revile but, providing that's done, anyone can feel free to use, share, translate or take extracts from the above article as they see fit (please do contact Nick Porter regarding thewayyoupractice.com though)

Love, Violet x

Horror stories on Reddit




Dear everyone


It has been a really, really, really long time since I updated Contact.

Sorry. Life kind of got in the way. ANYWAY! let's move swiftly on from my four years of blog absence.

I have been experimenting with horror stories and published some of them on Reddit, and it suddenly occurred to me that I really need to also put them here!

Here are links to the ones I've done so far, and going forward any new ones I come up with (there is one brewing) will be posted here as well. I'm just going to do links to the first four because I'm lazy, but in future I'll copy-post in full.


Looking for new friends, maybe more (a sister post to The Interview)
