Like V (aggressive) with short neck, head partly turned away from opponent. Obviously very ambivalent. Doesn't appear to be the highest intensity sort of pattern; but not obviously low-intensity either. [[in margin, 3 vertical bars & cross hatch doodle]] Before I forget.....None of the little most intense disputes ("i.e." or "or" the disputes characterized by choking, have been characterized by V's. Does this mean that the V does not extend into the highest intensities? Or does it mean that the A and E [[drives?]] have been very well balanced in the intense disputes I have seen.
