Have you ever been involved in hazing?

Question

Hazing, which more or less amounts to some form of initiation into an institution, organization, or possibly a team, has been going on for hundreds of years. However, in the past 20 years or so has been frowned upon due to some of the more extreme ways the hazing has taken place.

Have you ever been involved in any sort of hazing? Please tell your story.

Answer 1

Well, there was this super short girl that was punching freshmen in highschool as a sort of hazing thing, she punched me in the chest.

You know, sometimes girl punches kinda hurt.

Answer 2

No.

Answer 3

Yes...on both sides...In a fraternity.

But nothing really too severe.

Answer 4

no

Answer 5

When I was young (12) my friend next door formed a club. The only people who could join would let him slug them in the stomach. They could slug him in the stomach if they paid him ten dollars. WTF?

Answer 6

Canadian Army Cadets

Answer 7

My football team had hazing when I was in high school 4 years ago. It wasn't anything demeaning or painful but it was something you had to do to be accepted. Most of the time it was embarrassing or buying liquor for a party. Mine was at a university football game. I had to lift my shirt and these random girls if they had some laundry they could do on my washboard (stomach).

Answer 8

i think i have

Answer 9

I was hazed when I was initiated into my sorority, we had the choice to opt out.  It was fun and brought us a bit closer to our big sis.  We were not forced to do anything embarrassing, or illegal...it was more of a trust exercise.

We also hazed the Freshmen for the soccer team, again, not anything mean or degrading.  They had fun and so did we.

Extreme hazing is wrong, but hazing can be fun and can build trust.

Answer 10

Hate to admit it but sort of I guess.

We were 12 year old Girl Scouts out in GS camp with our entire troop.

Out in the woods for a week. there was a swimming pool  and one of the girls in our troop put some TP in her suit to look better, older, bigger whatever.

Anyways we all laughed at her because we knew she wasfaking.

When she went into the make shift shower, we all pulled down the shower curtian to see if she was really faking or not.

Sort of embarrassing to admit now, I almost forgot about that.

She ran and screamed at all of us, we were jerks.
