“I read one time that males in our society tend to fight for dominance, and females tend to fight for survival. This generally seems to be the case when I observe fights. My theory is that men follow a loose set of rules when fighting in these “dominance fights” and seem to avoid certain tactics. Women do not.”

We’re talking about using this for fighting, not for a game or sport…it’s designed for the street.”

Makes sense since the movie is peripherally about Charles Manson. One of the people killed along with Sharon Tate (played by Margot Robbie) by the Manson Family was the guy who “discovered” Bruce Lee for The Green Hornet, a hairdresser named Jay Seybring. Seybring introduced Lee to Steve McQueen and Sharon Tate (among others) — Bruce choreographed Sharon Tate’s fights for a Dean Martin movie (The Wrecking Crew, which was also Chuck Norris’s film debut). So Bruce was friends with at least two of the people killed by the Manson Family.
When I first heard about this, my first thought was, imagine if Bruce has been in that house when the members of the Manson Family showed up. They were just drugged up nutcases with knives. One guy and three girls. One had a .22 pistol. They did some shooting in the driveway and then kind of blundered into the house. Normal people can still be caught unawares under such circumstances, but imagine what Bruce might have done to them!
Anyway, should be interesting!
