I beat up a few people in 6th grade who were either picking on me or my friends, never had any more problems in Middle school, with the exception of the occasional brawl from the "regulars" (people I fought with often). In the first year of high school I beat up like 4 people, and I only had to fight one more time after that in all 4 years of school. All my fights were either self defense, or defense of others that would just let peoiple push them around because they were freshmen. Most of the time people would never show up to fights when they said they would, which to me shows that guys in general don't like backing down to someone's face (machoism?), but don't REALLY want to fight.
(As a side note, I have been doing martial arts for about 9 years, and though I enjoy fighting I don't enjoy hurting people, I only take it as far as it has to go)
