ANST -Ladies Chest Protection

The question was, can an unarmored female breast take a minimum strength 
killing blow without causing the lady so struck to experience hideous pain. 
 My answer (as in, for this female and her breasts) is yes.  I'd rather get 
hit in the tit than in the bicep.  I'd rather take a shot to the breast 
than one of those hard rising wraps that lands in the crease between the 
leg and my fanny.  

In both instances the blow to the breast doesn't hurt as much -- either at 
the time the blow was received  (as was already mentioned, the breast moves 
even in a bra, taking some of the force  away from the blow) or later -- 
the breast itself being mostly fatty and glandular tissue, unlike the 
biceps or rear end, where the bruise is often deep within the muscle and 
screams at you every time that muscle flexes until it heals.

I agree completely. The only people on the field are *warriors*, and you 
either treat them with respect, or they painfully teach you why you 
should. I did not mean to imply that *anyone* fighting requires special 
treatment.

At the same time, however, I was taught that you hit your opponent just 
hard enough to win,  and that knowingly and deliberately hurting him/her 
was dishonorable. So my question becomes: Is it possible to strike even a 
merely *legal* blow upon an unprotected femine breast without causing 
undue pain? Lady fighters, what say you?
