A:  NO, it doesn’t make sense to.

I never understood the concept of why women who are afraid of being attacked by men would want to train only with

women.

Lets be real,,  Men and Women are DIFFERENT.  Men are often taller, heavier and stronger than women.  YES, not all BUT

MOST.  Training with a 100-140 pound woman is great but that will do nothing for you if you are ever faced with a 6’  280

pound guy with a chip on his shoulder.   

Yeah, guys are going to be harder to train with.  They are going to be sweaty, hard to hurt and hard to throw around but isn’t

that what you want to learn how to do?  Training with guys is also a great workout as it helps to build strength, endurance

and confidence.

If you only train with 120 pound women who scream when punched, kicked or twisted and are easily thrown to the ground,, 

How does that prepare you for the guy on the streets who is 200 plus pounds and is immune to pain because of the drugs he

just took or the alcohol he just drank?

If you are worried about being attacked by a 120 women than yes, I could understand training against 120 pound women,

but if you are worried about being attacked by a taller, stronger man, than it is essential for you to train with that type of

person.  It is the only way to learn what it is going to take to stop an attacker.
