No, this is a variation on a circle parry and a counter circle parry. Both are commonly taught in French and Italian style foil fencing.
A circle parry is when you avoid your opponents blade by moving your blade around theirs in a circle. A counter circle parry is circling around your opponents circle so that they can’t get their blade past to stab you.
When two fencers know each other well, this often happens. It becomes a game of chicken, it only ends when someone is willing to risk leaving an opening so that they can launch a different attack.
The foil version of this happens at least once a practice on my college fencing team. The only difference is that the blades are horizontal rather than diagonal.
Bolded for sadness

Occasionally I go on Craigslist personals. I do searches for w4t, mw4t, and w4w trans to see what turns up. It’s always sparse and the little that exists is fetishizing. Then I search for w4w to compare.
I like making myself sad.
I just looked at the T-string sizing by Chrysalis. Yes, it’s way too expensive, but there are occasions when I want the extra security. Anyways, the sizing is jacked. Who undergoes a T-driven puberty and develops a 0.7 waist-to-hip ratio? Did these people do any research?

When comments are better than the article, Atlantic edition (“The Cheapest Generation: Why Millennials aren’t buying cars or houses, and what that means for the economy”)
I find thats true of a lot of articles lately. The comments sections can either be a gold mine of counterpoint and commentary…or a hooked on phonics trollfest.
