Why men like fighting so much

   I will almost never give just because as an answer. Just because, because it is, it just is, etc never explained anything. These answers rarely come from the mouth of an educated person and they are yet to prove anything over the tradbo-zillion times they've been used. It is also noteworthy that my blood boils to near evaporation when people use it on me amidst a debate. 
   What's this have to do with fighting? It has to be obvious. Why do men like fighting so much? Answer: because we do. We love that shit. We like doing it. We like watching it. We like telling stories about it. We like hearing stories about. Photos, interviews, replays, it doesn't matter, if its about fighting, we dig it. If they made teddy bears that were somehow related to fighting we'd buy em. 2 for $50? Cool I'll buy one for me and my buddy, he loves fighting.
   Not that the following is related, but I'd guess that maybe 1 in 20 guys could actually fight in any respectable way if their safety depended on it. 

  I don't doubt that there are theories why we like fighting so much ranging from the biological to the anthropological and Im certain many of them are plausible, evidenced based and follow logically, but I think this s one time that "just because" is a better answer. We just love that shit.
