| Heathen? Yes. Foilist? Yes. But the combination is purely coincidental.
And I'll gladly bow low to look up at you on your pedastal. You're not wearing pants are you.

| With only the experience of a foilist before you as a basis for comparison, I would NOT take her remarks as all that flattering if I were you.

| She was lying to you. No woman who had been with a sabre fencer would admit an epeeist to her bed thereafter. Too much of a let-down.

A woman experiences a stiff weapon with a sensitive tip that can touch her all over ... she may not admit it, but she'll be back for more

(although, to be fair, depending on your situation a severed wire may not be bad). Hmmm...
