Back in the 50s, my dad was stern about never, ever, hitting a girl. Ever. And no name calling. No racist words. No stealing. Work hard cause the world doesn’t owe me a thing. Be responsible. And, even at 11, I better not miss a house on my 5 a.m. paper route. And never loan my bike to anyone.
I read that Steve Spurrier had a rule.
Hit a girl and you are off the team.
A lot of coaches let them beat, rape etc. and stay on the team. Tom Osborne comes to mind.
I learned to never cuss around girls. Nowadays it’s common to see females who can out cuss a sailor.../apologies to sailors.
