A team of Canadian researchers claim that dodgeball, the gym class staple, is a tool of oppression.
Butler said that teachers should be focusing on helping kids “control their aggression” in gym class instead.
JFC now dodgeball is under fire, what's next Red Rover?

Gym class is meant to burn energy that may otherwise lead to being expressed in a negative way, or turn you into a fatass.

This isn't a new thought.

I am not one of these "the pussification of Merica" type who says it about every little thing, but this sounds like some bullshite.
When I was in elementary school, it was played at recess and once a week, on Fridays when we had "PE time".

I like that it points out the weak and unathketic kids

I’ll bet if a study was done...... it would say thet since schools started phasing out dodgeball, school shootings have gone up. Let the kids take out their aggression in a harmless manner.

We used to play in a dodgeball league down at the beach and it kicked arse. About 20 people on each team, 8 teams down there at a time, everyone drinking and having a great time.
I know, a CSB for sure, but reminiscing about those evenings is fun for me. And no one was mental impacted by the experience.
