“Sheesh...these guys never got into a fist fight in school??”

Gals.

But near as I can tell, USMA figures it’s easier to teach a brainiac to be a brute than to turn a brute into a brainiac.

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.

Not getting into a fight at school has become the norm.

Both of my boys boxed in junior high and into high school. They were the only kids they knew that ever had a bloody nose from a punch.

Is there such a thing as an honorable fist fight in school these days - more likely to get shot or have a shiv "poking around"......

Then, if we're fortunate enough to become actual adults, the issue of fighting like that loses its luster and it is generally relegated to the thugs/rednecks/those who opt to "go pro".....
