For women training with men there are two scenarios that sometimes come up and offer nothing but frustration… And I’m sure some men might relate as well...

Your uke is a new student who intentionally blocks you, with a ‘let’s see you handle this’ look on their face. Unfortunately, retaliation is not in the spirit of Aikido.

Your uke is an experienced black belt who is ‘fragile-handle-with-care’ gentle, offering absolutely no resistance. Unfortunately, retaliation is not in the spirit of Aikido.
