We are all aikido students once we put a gi on and enter the Dojo. I have trained with a variety of ukes - heavier, lighter, shorter, taller, younger, older etc. some women but mostly men. What is the problem ? we are all different and with each uke my aikido is challenged for different reasons. For all you men who are concerned about hurting a 'girl' please remember that if she didnt want to be thrown or have techniques put on she wouldnt have joined in the first place !
As for the men only Dojo - Daniel what are you so scared of? PMS - get real. You have no respect.
