Welcome to femcel memes. A place where anybody can post memes that fit the vibe.
Warning: We have a tendency to post things that may at times come from a self-deprecating perspective or things that are funny coming from another queer person. This space will always be a safe place for transfems, non-binary people, people with a feminine gender expression (GNC or otherwise) or anybody else in the LGBT Community to come together and share about our experiences but we truly feel that laughing about the sometimes silly and embarrassing parts the queer experience can help bring us together. We never mean offense or harm in anything posted but rather they are satirical takes coming from queer people.
A note about 'Egging': Our community is mostly made up of transfem individuals, and as such most memes posted will be posted with the intention of having a transfem perspective. However, regardless of gender identity, all feminine presenting individuals are welcome here. Whether that means you're NB, GNC, transmasc, or any other identity, you are welcome here. It is not our intention or goal to invalidate these identities. If something makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to report the post and I will address your concerns on an individual level. For more information regarding the problems with 'Egg-culture', please see Here.
Love Y'all and thank you for following this community

Uechi-Ryu adapts some Chinese styles and forms, including tiger, crane, and dragon. The stance isn't so wide and favors a more 50-50 weight distribution. My old school when I was a kid was a little different, labeled as "Okinawan karate" and was a little more diverse, including some kung fu, kenpo and tai chi, so I believe it was Uechi-Ryu.
I'm not sure about punching through armor? Something like that has never been discussed as far as I know.
Ah, I see... interesting!
A lot of people... or at least Westerners... don't know that Tai Chi is more than just meditative stretching, that it is an actual martial art.
A blend of all those you describe would be interesting to see.
As best I can tell, Uechi Ryu is Okinawan in the sense that its founding master was based out of Okinawa...
But yeah, seems to be a different lineage than Goju-Ryu and Shito-Ryu, which again, best I can tell, were both formed by two students of Higaonna Kanryo, who were good friends, both born in Okinawa.
...
But ah, the point of that 'lunge punch' I mentioned is not to... break the armor, penetrate it.
It is to hit with so much force that it staggers the opponent.
As opposed to something like a lighter, faster, flurry of blows, ala kung fu.
...
Like uh, if you are wearing kevlar / plate body armor... a .22 may make you flinch.
But a 7.62 from the same range? Even if it hits the plate armor, doesn't pen it... that force still goes into you, knocks you on your ass.
...
Also, it seems I have the worst timing, I just updated my older comment with some more... potentially related errata that came to mind.
