[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We can all agree that men’s lacrosse breeds trash men who abuse and assault woman. [/quote] Yes but why? It’s literally been like this since at least 1989 (based on my personal experience). I’ve lived all over the country and been involved in lacrosse as a volunteer or player for every decade in inner-city programs, west coast backwaters, and private school powerhouses since then and men’s lacrosse has never changed. I don’t get how its culture is perpetuated across time, geography and income. Back to volleyball: other girl’s sports are meaner and the players are not playing a “finesse sport” or “hardly breaking a sweat”. Go to a Big 10 game at Maryland before the season ends- it is so intense and fun to watch. And college teams have a great mix of body types and personalities. [/quote] I’ve always wondered this too. Is there some bro pledge every lacrosse player in the country is required to sign? On the flip side, I’ve never heard of a cross-country team anywhere populated by mean kids. [/quote] It probably attracts the type and repels those who aren't the type now. I think you take a physical full contact sport like hockey or football and then add a massive dose of privilege and you get lacrosse. It's a terrible combination [/quote]
