Sometimes you must butt in to get ahead, so I presume that this poll is welcome.

That weird first one.

How is it weird? ;p

Can't play soccer without 'em.

Sure you can. All you really need are legs. A headbutt is just an extra move that might give a player a leg up on the competition (figuratively speaking) when used at the right time.

Aside from soccer, I don't do much head butting, but I do a lot of butting heads.

They're all weird. I just agreed with that one more.

Strictly speaking as someone with fighting training, a heafbutt is a tricky maneuver to employ. If you get it right, it can be quite effective- such as the nose aforementioned in the poll itself. Especially if someone grabs you from behind. Just slam the back of your head into their nose, and- yeah, you get the picture. But the thing is, if you get it wrong, it will hurt. A lot. Heads are hard; they have to be. So you don't want to risk seeing stars if you don't have to. Heck, it may hurt you regardless, if you don't get a soft spot on your opponent with it. I mean, your forehead hits theirs, and you'll likely be in just as much pain as them, in the end.

I figure it's not wise to impact the back of your head too hard to avoid getting knocked unconscious. Well, you get knocked unconscious from elsewhere, but I thought it was easier from the rear.

I'm the headless astrial from spectral hollow! OOOoooOOOoooo!

Headbutting would suck no matter which way it goes, i'll stick to my parkour tactics and make a bee line path away from trouble XD

I'm sure the issue leading to considering a Headbutt can be resolved with cookies and tea.

Unless it's soccer where headbutting in the chest is a proven effective mean... and completely legal if you don't get caught.

That's a common misconception. The back of the skull is actually the thickest part. If you want to knock someone out via hitting their head, you want to go more for the region of the temple. People just think back of the head because it's what you always see in media. Sure, it can happen, but you have to hit it a lot harder.
