For instance, suppose you see a woman getting thumped about by her husband or boyfriend. Is it a sign of 'weak' character to wade in and attempt to stop it?
No, not a generalization at all. I DID know what every fight was about and since I was talking about myself, I'd say it's entirely fair.
Furthermore, that example you offered is EXTREMELY rare and you and I both know that 99% of fights are avoidable and certainly have absolutely nothing to do with protecting someone's honor. To imply that there's a hero factor that has to be calculated in is absurd and utterly dishonest.
I think this calls for a fist fight.
Get at it, men! Oh wait, darn, it's the internet. It's rare, but not too rare. By that I don't mean medium rare like steak. What I'm saying is that when I did fight, back in junior high and early high school, it was really to defend my little brother. He has Tourette syndrome and kids thought it was funny to bully him around. Absurd, perhaps, but true.
