>>3917797Exactly. That's boyhood fun. Perhaps in a perfect world that sort of thing wouldn't be possible, or rather, desired at all; yet in the one we live it is and is, and we have to acknowledge that.
It's just a careful balance to keep, especially when it takes a unilateral form, like in story telling, where there isn't any sort of pushback when you increasingly ratchet the violence up. You can quickly come to a situation where you're don't sufficiently distinguish between the validity of real boy violence, vs fictitious.
Hope you and your husband are happy btw :3
