"Pussification" is one of the stupidest concepts around.

I remember when they tried to spare our feet, ankles, knees, hips and back in the military the old guys said they were being soft on us. It's fortunate that most people in the present-day military may not have to worry about that.

After that, I heard a few boxers say that you ought not spar every day and limit how many punches you take to the head. I'm sure the older boxers will disagree, but I'm certain limiting punches to the noggin is a relatively good thing.

Then, when I started to get more involved with jujitsu they told me to fight at 75% to avoid injury.

You seriously remind me of Idiocracy where whenever someone starts speaking intelligently, bringing up psychological reasons or even physiological reasons not to do something your response is: Why are you talkin' all faggy?

Ease up tough guy, nothing will happen with young boys and girls not developing sociopathic behavior before they hit puberty.

I'm angry more at the asinine rules than I am at the disqualification.

Ok, they broke the stupid rule. That doesn't excuse the existence of the stupid rule.
