        lfj's a guy who often spends long periods of time living in china, and the shaolin temple, itself. he's also fluent in chinese (as far as i can tell), so he might have a more accurate understanding of how the word (shifu) is used, the connotation involved, etc... especially in comparison to your average dictionary. lol...

        in asian society, you can't gain rank by being better than someone...(well, not traditionally) it's relational, as lfj said. you either are or you aren't.

        ranking systems are just a contemporary phenomenon.

          I understand that.

          Obviously in the west there is, its kind of intrinsic. I think it was introduced over here when the arts came over in the 60s...

          My GM came back from China after training with Wong Cheung in the mid 50s. It was already in place then.

          While the ranking system isn't a traditional thing, it is part of the western evolution of the fighting arts and as such is intrinsic to a LOT of styles.

                    why is it 'intrinsic?'

                    i only see how it's intrinsic to making money and keeping students. if that's what you mean...

                      While i see your point, not everyone makes money out of giving people belts. I gives people something to aim for. Different styles do this in different ways....

                          onesp1ng u need to chill home slice. there are plenty of people who just like the belts and take pride in them

                          and onesp1ng not everyone believes the same things you do either about chinese martial arts. not to mention alot of the most talented chinese martial artists arent even in asia. unless your talking about wushu lolo

                                Eating sausage is against chinese bodisatva rule and might be against access to absolute non violence (and dionysisac orgies)
