Millennial generation with its focus on win-win solutions and an instinct for avoiding confrontation.
Thats the part that caught my attention the most. Avoiding confrontation. Watch the animal kingdom. For the most part animals will avoid confrontation if at all possible. There are exceptions,,,protecting their young, mating season. They will threaten each other, huff and puff, etc., but when it comes down to it if there is an escape exit they can take to avoid a fight they will take it. Why? Because they know that even if they “win” the fight, the injuries they suffer from it may very well kill them afterward. Too much blood loss, too injured to hunt for food, etc. It seems we are the only species that deliberately seeks injury. When you think about it, how intelligent is that.
How do animals get tough? They do it by playing. Wolves play and nip. Humans play football. While sports is common, most humans don't actively seek out actual street fights unless they are backed into a corner.
