Men and Fighting: What Is The Appeal?

I just saw this article on Yahoo News.

It made the appeal of Boyzone go up by about 80% in my estimation. I got a slight thrill out of picturing them ‘brawling’ drunkenly in that bar. I thought, “RARR!”

WHY? WHY?

Why is the thought of a man having a scuffle so appealling?? Is that why the thought of a soldier is so appealing? or Martial Arts experts like Bruce Lee?

Thoughts, ladies?

    Naw Alanna, I don’t care for that. I once had a boyfriend that had an awfy short fuse. Ye couldny go anywhere but he wanted to splatter some guy. It got old really quick.

    What I DO like is men after they’ve been excercising or doing sport. I had another boyfriend that played rugby. I loved it when he just came off the pitch and he was all muddy and breathless and sweaty and smelling of wintergreen. Lovely.

    I’m still trying to imagine wee Gately getting ploughed in. Although gay doesn’t neccessarily = wimp. That’s just a myth.

    “I’m still trying to imagine wee Gately getting ploughed in.”

    Fiona, I had to read that like, 8 times. I was like….. ……. …… ???? ?????

    then I read the next sentence and it aw made sense. Ye meant fighting. I thought you were saying you were trying to imagine wee Gately getting his arse rummaged.

    Naw, I don’t mean cock-heads who want to fight all the time. But see someone who can handle thereself, like, defending your honor typa thing? I can see why maidens in the olden days like to watch men jousting or sword fighting for sport.

    I know what you mean about the post-sport horn for a guy. Saying that, i never had a boyfriend who played outdoorsy type sport. I DO like it when L come in after a wee drink and he smells of beer and fags. Wierd I know eh? Although he drinks maybe twice a year so…sake!

    Hahahahahaahaha Arse rummaged hahahahahahah. I had a gay pal who was very effective in a fight. Guys used to start on him and then realise, too late, that he was going to banjo them. I think he got a certain thrill out of it anaw. Dodgy.

    On that note, we could set up a fantasy league of gay bare-knuckle fighting. For example;

    Dale Winton v Paul O’Grady
    Graham Norton v Julian Clary
    Lindsay Lohan v Jodie Marsh
    Sam Fox v Sandy Toksvig
    Will Young v David Furnish
    Elton John v Sir Ian McKellan
    Rosie O’Donnell v Ellen DeGeneres

    Aw man, this is actually quite fun. I’ll stop though :)

    HAHAHA. Gay Fight Club. The first rule of Gay Fight Club is you don’t talk about Gay Fight Club….. Fiona, maybe there is ALREADY something like this going on. could be…..

    Sandy Toksvig would fuckin destroy the lot of them.

    DS

  6. bakerka23 says:

    Aye, that Toksvig is a big beastie but I’m no sure that Rosie O’Donnell wouldny pulverise her. She’s a force of nature.

    Lohan’s out in Round 1.

  7. Alanna says:

    Here are my winners of the Gay fight Club. You have to remember that his is proper physical fighting, i mean, i agree Toksvig is a formidable big wummin but Sam Fox is a good 10 years younger and she is also a total nutjob. If it was Gay Crossword Club then Toksvig would win.

    Dale Winton
    Graham Norton
    Jodie Marsh
    Sam Fox
    David Furnish
    Elton John
    Rose O’Donnell

    I agree except I reckon Furnish wouldny be able to overcome Will ‘The Chin’ Young.

    What about this lot;

    Rupert Everett v Peter Tatchell
    Stephen Fry v Simon Callow
    Jodie Foster v Cynthia Nixon
    George Michael v Wayne Sleep

    I’d pay a LOT to watch wee Sleep and big Geo slug it out.

  9. Alanna says:

    oooh i suppose your right aye. I like your new contenders but lets have a winners play series. So, how about this first. All the winners of the previous round play eachother… we will whittle it down to one winner, then that winner plays the winner of the next round. what do you think?

    Pete Burns vs Boy George
