Is there a place for "hazing" anywhere? We live in a society of heirarchial structures and hazing seems to be a hidden topic in the grownup world. Here are some examples:

1) Naval personnel making their first cruise across the equator meet up with "King Neptune" onboard in a hazing ritual.

2) It is the "tradition" in the Supreme Court that the junior justice in our nation's highest court serve the water and otherwise attend to the other justices during their closed door meetings. This tradition was disregarded when Justice O'Connor, the first woman on the Court, was in her freshman term.
