Fact of the matter is this- in a "street fight" there are no rules (so to say) and I don't get how men get in a tizzy when someone throws a "sucker punch"
in my eyes, it is better to get the jump on someone and catch them totally off guard rather than end up in a hospital. If you can land a punch, knock out a dude and avoid humiliation then better off for you, no?
Btw, I'm not trying to posture myself as some sort of "internet tough guy" who "gets in a bar fight every other week". I'M NOT- I haven't been a legit fight since I was in high school.
However, I keep on hearing about how sucker punches are against the "man code/bro code". That just sounds dumb
Ultimately, getting your ass beat or looking like a punk is against this supposed "man code" more that catching a guy off guard with a shot to the face
Street fights are about winning not about rules
You obviously don't know what a sucker punch is.
Scenario: You're in a bar with a girl you've been hanging out with and a few buddies. At some point that evening, some guy that you don't know tells the girl you came with that she looks pretty hot. You see it happen, but you can't tell whether he knew she was with you or not. Doesn't matter. You're pissed. Oh, and one of your boys saw it happen, too. So now you're acting all butt-hurt and decide to have another drink.
An hour-and-a-half later, you're more upset than you were when it happened. And one of your boys is giving you shit about it. The girl you're trying to date tells you to just forget it and even rubs your thigh, but you're not interested in getting laid - you wanna prove to your boys you're not a chump...even though they didn't tell you to. You then go over to that guy (at least you think it's him) who is also with a few buddies, tap him on the shoulder and say 'Wassup?' like a typical wigger looking for trouble. He looks at you like you're crazy - as well he should - and asks what he can do for you. You then confront him about talking to 'your girl' and not wanting to escalate the situation, he says 'Hey, I didn't know she was with anybody, my bad' and then turns back to continue drinking with his friends.
It's more than you can stand, so you take a shot at the guy while he's not even looking. That's a sucker punch and it's a bitch move, period.
Absolutely against the man code, but totally acceptable if you're a bitch.
