Have you been in a fight?
This came up in a recent discussion; I've always maintained that every man, or at least every man who calls himself a man, has been in at least one fight. This turned out to be a surprise for some people. A quick spot-check showed there to be at least some truth to my theory, but I want to try this on a larger sample.
By the way, this is for the guys. Women can respond too if you consider yourselves manly men, but as this is kind of about stereotypes, I'm really only interested in the male votes.
So, the question is:
When was the last time you were in a fight?
As far as I'm concerned, a fight might be anything from a simple jerseying to full-blown kung fu, but I'm looking for at least these three things:
1. It has to have been a physical fight - arguments don't count, no matter how heated, not even if you threw things.
2. It has to be mutual; if either you or your combatant didn't fight back at all, it doesn't count.
3. There must be an intent to cause real harm or embarrassment - so playfully punching a friend in the shoulder, or sparring in your martial arts class, does not count.
For those giving an answer other than "never", it would also be interesting to hear why you got into the fight(s), so feel free to post details.
