Bar fights are kind of a sport, right?
So, you know, they were those guys, right?
I mean, we all know those guys, right?
We avoided them in the playground because...
They were tough-looking guys.
That's the military, right?
They're amazing kids, right?
But, you know, sports is a reenactment, a practice for combat.
It's all, I mean, you know, this isn't my idea.
This is well-established, right?
It all trains people for combat.
And a lot of child's play trains them for hunting, right?
I mean, you know, the hide-and-seek and all that stuff.
Like, it's all...
You know, very, very clearly, sports are a way of grooming children to step into adult roles of hunting and warfare and playing house.
You know, kids play house, too.
You know, they're all in training, right, for the things that they'll be doing as adults.
But sports, I know I read that with young women who are part of a team,
soccer team, lacrosse team, longitudinal studies have shown that they do better in their lives, more stable marriages, professionally they do better, emotionally, psychologically they do better.
That experience somehow changes young women in ways that are very, very positive, and I think young men as well.
