Stupid shit Wing Chun people say

Wing Chun is my primary art, which I have been practicing for more than 3 decades. Over the years I have heard many stupid, illogical, esoteric, weird and borderline schizophrenic explanation of the art. But there are few that are used frequently in order to hide incompetence of teachers and inefficiency of their styles. Number one is "My Art Is Too Deadly To Spar." Many people truly believe that Wing Chun hides secrets of how to kill people with bare hands. Some just say that to hide lack of real fighting training. In reality it is not easy to kill someone with bare hands, especially if that someone actively resists. It is possible of course, and it happens sometimes, usually by pure accident. If killing with bare hands is actually possible people wouldn’t bother to invent weapons of any kind. If the art is” too deadly to spar or fight” it is not worth anyone’s time or money, simple as that. My next favorite “Wing Chun Is Not Meant \For Sport, I can’t use many techniques because of the gloves and many efficient techniques are forbidden by rules , like eye gauge or kick in the balls." Simple truth about this is, if someone can’t compete, he can’t fight in real selfdefese situation. Hitting the eyes of the moving opponent with finger jab is almost impossible. Kick in the groins doesn’t really work that well on people full of adrenalin who have desire to hurt or kill you. About movement restriction caused by gloves, that is also pure crap, I can and I use all wing wing chun hands position with or without gloves, no real difference there. Third place is a claim that you don’t need muscles to generate power. Power will come from “internal” sources and lately there is claim that muscles are not needed for punching power because more power comes from tendons and ligaments. This is not only beyond stupid, but amount of people who believe in this things clearly show how bad education system is these days all over the world. Basic scientific truths, about basic physics and biology, which supposed to be taught at elementary school level got lost somewhere along the way. No further explanation is needed. Fourth place goes to "Your Technique Is Wrong ,(because it is slightly different than mine)”. This shows fundamental misunderstanding of the basic principles of the art and also shows some psychological issues. Paying too much attention to the smallest details like someone’s life depends on them is just stupid. Either Art can work, or not, few millimeters difference in hand position won’t make real difference in real fight. Of course, ‘’snake oil’’ sellers will insist on smallest details explaining how important they are and how that makes their style more efficient, original and better than all others. Fifth place goes to secret techniques which are nothing more than new choreographies of movements without any real value. Any efficient martial art is based in simple principles and proper training approach, there are no secrets there, no “higher level knowledge” ($$$$$). Either you can learn basics of fighting in 6 months or not, You can become proficient fighter in few years or not. The only secret is hard work and proper training. To conclude this article, if you hear something like this in your school, run , don't turn back, because it is complete waste of your time and money
