The theme song for this site: Kung Fu Fighting
Historically, there was some incident -- or perhaps more than one, my knowledge of Chinese history isn't deep -- where some Emperor got in a pickle, asked the Shaolin priests to help him out and they saved his bacon and he PROMPTLY went "Thank you. I now wish to exterminate you because you are scary shit!"
See also Val Kilmer's The Saint and Keanu Reeves' Chain Reaction for how deep the doodoo is likely to be if you do something sciency that is world altering.
Anyway, as a Westerner, my general understanding is that Asian martial arts that are so popular in Western movies were born of peasants being told "You aren't allowed to own weapons." so they learned to fight with bare hands and feet and turn common farm implements into weapons.
Because you can't reasonably deny your peasants hands, feet and farm implements while expecting them to feed your over-privileged fat ass.
I've got a deadly genetic disorder and -- after finally getting a proper diagnosis -- I have spent roughly 25 years officially learning to manage it with diet and lifestyle after 35 years of coping as best I could while being denied treatment and called a hypochondriac.
IF it's possible to manage being trans with diet and lifestyle to at least some degree, then you can politely tell transphobic gatekeepers a big fat fuck you without saying a word to them while you order your sex hormone supporting meal du jour or whatever.
HA!
At least hypothetically and to some degree.
Footnote
Not REALLY relevant, BUT:
My brother was into martial arts and exposed me slightly to them. The ex husband took martial arts. I took gymnastics and it similarly uses knowledge of physics to do weird and incredible stuff that seems like it should be impossible.
This site does that with a "Let your food be your medicine" approach for "impossible" medical stuff. If you don't get it, keep reading. Maybe someday you will.
