Women turn to violence

Scary perspectives indeed!
The good part is that more girls and women learn to stand up for themselves if they ever should need it in a physical self-defense situation. The bad part ...

The beatings are punishing – fists flying, hair pulling and kicking. This is how more and more girls these days handle disputes.

"Me or my friend bumped into a girl in the lunch line and I didn't say sorry," said a high school senior. "She came at me. We started fighting."

"If you just look at them a certain way, they'll try to fight you," said one high school sophomore.
