  1. I never understood why catfights are between ladies while dogfights are between aeroplanes.

    1. @thelastgherkin Well in rioplatense Spanish "Gato" is slang for prostitute, so it makes a bit of sense for the catfight part. I think air battles are called dogfights because in their earlier stages, they resembled the rolling and circling that dogs do when fighting.

      1. @nerthos And ladyfights tend to have scratching and yowling, I guess?

    2. @thelastgherkin There's an anime joke in there somewhere, I just know there has to be!

      1. @scribus @nerthos Would an aerial battle between two pegasus mares be both a dogfight and a catfight?

        1. @thelastgherkin Maybe. It would also be a horsefight, so you'd have a whole catalog of animals to choose from.
