Personally I see that as a fookin liberty. You offer yourself up to help someone demo something, and then they hurt you.
There's a whole macho sub culture too, where the hurt guy is required to pretend that he doesn't mind, and that he is tough enough to take it.
Someone does that to me? I'll ask him to show me the move again, and then I'll cave his fookin face in.
I'm a friendly guy!
As an aside, I used to hate some of the guys in my Shukokai days. We used to hold these tough foam pads against our chests for each other to hit. It fookin hurt!
So you'd hold them for your partner whilst he batted the crap out of you. But, when it was his turn to hold? Why, he'd need to "go to the toilet" or something. Next session, I'd always insist on going first.
I remember inviting a guy I knew from another forum round to my home to train. I let him get me into some complicated neck lock, a move that he would have never got on if I was resisiting. He then said "Are you ready?" and cranked my fookin neck. I kicked his fat arse out.
In my sparring days there was this guy who always wanted to go in slow motion. He reckoned it was good to develop "control." But, of course, he'd then whip these fast kicks into your head. How he complained when I punched him in the gob.
