Fencing

the coolest sport in the world. the different weapons are foil, epee, and sabre. all the official tournaments are directed in french so that makes it infinatly cooler and a lot of the actions have french names as well. it takes physical strength and mental strength as well. you better be able to take pain if you want to do this sport.

a modern sport based on the traditional martial art of european swordplay. made up of three different disciplines - foil, epee, and saber, of which saber is without a doubt the best. positive aspects include the opportunity to learn intelligent risk taking, how to win without being obnoxious and how to lose without getting flustered, the opportunity to learn at your own pace and the challenge of unravelling the mystery of the game. negative aspects include ignorant referees, the atrocious cost of equipment and participation in tournaments, the difficulty of finding competent instruction, and the compulsion of every greenhorn newbie to turn into the fencing master when someone just a week or two newer to the sport is around.

A sport where if you're a 'dry' novice. You will be plagued with terrible, apathetic judges and crazy old directors. Where they say things like 'distance parry' and give points to people that hit your foot or your mask! Go electric as soon as possible!

A sport where damn near everyone appears to be a mincing pansy poofter* but are actually full tilt hetro. If you see a couple of them together, do not ask which of them gets to be the boy, as they will beat the living shit outta you. *especially foil and eppe fencers. Sabre fencers just laugh, buy another round and point out the foil and eppe fencers playing Judy Garland songs on the jukebox by the bar.

Fencing is the actions of the go between for a thief and buyer of the thief's stolen goods. The buyer may unwittingly buy stolen goods from a fence in yard sales, flea markets, through classified ads, or other traditional markets. A shrewed form of fencing is when the fencer poses as a fence for stolen goods and sells cheap illegal imitations of name brand goods at high prices under the pretence that they are more expensive legit versions.

a SPORT which includes 3 weapons, and saber is the best of the 3 since it's slapping, foil and epee are poking :p

the awesomest sport in the WORLD which is awesome. it consists of 3 weapons : FOIL EPEE or SABRE! it is just the awesomest sport EVER!!!!

An activity in which fags assmeble pretending to be athletic. Mindless drivel and shuffling across mats in order to pretend to be straight athletes. The will power to not just wack each other is amazing. However, fencing is not a sport but rather a gayer version of arts and crafts.

Everyone who says that fencing is for 'fags,' SHUT UP! A: stop being prejudiced against homosexuals! B: have you actually met fencers? Have you tried the SPORT (which IT IS) at all, or are you just sitting in front of your computer feeling superior? I am a teenage girl. I am straight. I am a fencer. The best people I have ever met are fencers. Maybe some of them are gay, some are straight, but it doesn't matter. To be a good fencer, you have to be so physically and mentally strong. It takes years of hard work and commitment and dedication. Think what you like, I really don't care, but keep it to yourself. Before you post something on this website again, make sure you actually know what you're talking about, okay?
