I looked and looked and can find NOTHING that can be construed as vulgar. What's the deal? I spent a lot of time writing it.
Sounds fair the only reason guys do that stuff is so they can 'grapple' other guys, why don't you just join the TSA.

"Judo is the way of the highest or most efficient use of both physical and mental energy. Through training in the attack and defence techniques of judo, the practitioner nurtures their physical and mental strength, and gradually embodies the essence of the Way of Judo. Thus, the ultimate objective of Judo discipline is to be utilized as a means to self-perfection, and thenceforth to make a positive contribution to society."

-- Kano Jigoro, founder of Judo.

I played rugby and cricket to a pretty good standard when I was younger but judo was always the most important sport to me in those years because of the stuff that this quote is getting at.
