Boxing is part of the curriculum, but making boxing mandatory for female cadets is new.

Stepping up from eye-scratching and hair-pulling.

About time to make it mandatory for females because aren’t we all the same, after all, I see little Buffy on TV, all 100lbs of her, beating the stuffing out of some 225lb guy.

Now that boxing is mandatory, the next question: are they going to make boxing co-ed, pairing men with females?

If they don’t go co-ed, then this is a nothing burger.

As long as they’re the same size then it would be required coed I would think.

It might be worthwhile to make the women train in boxing to build toughness and character, but regardless of how skilled they got, their boxing would be useless in the real world against anything other than other women.

If we're speaking of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, she's strong enough to bench press a compact car....
