[MR] Brotherhood, sort of...

[Chris and Sue]

For me not to include women in the "brotherhood" would be a little
hypocritical of me considering I've got female fighters bookending me right
now.  My first post-authorization fight was against Sir Fern (nobody told me
not to take her legs), and I'm working with an aspiring female right now who
wants to fight.

Being ex-military helps.  There are no colors or sexes, everyone is green.

i think we dont mention sex specifically because most of us dont view a
fighter as a he or she.  much like boats are "shes" fighters are "hes" but
not reliant on whether they stand up or sit down in the port-a-john.  i, and
i think most fighters, dont treat female fighters any differently.  i dont
think its fair to them and i personally respect every combatants willingness
to engage in violent conflict with me.  at least thats my personal view on
it and what i hear most often from other males on the subject.

OK, my one little pint of fuel to the fire-- Hello! People!! WOMEN FIGHT
HEAVY, TOO. (grump, grump...I stomp off to my A&S corner...)

I was really totally awful as a fighter, and I'm too old/fat/happy in the
corner reading by the AC to go back to it. But I really, seriously, totally
miss the camaraderie. Thankfully one of my best friends from college
(equally as old, but way more athletic and coordinated!) started fighting
out in Atenveldt, at least I get to fight vicariously now.
