Seems to me that Rock, Paper, Scissors is a game of disfigurement and/or a metaphor for destruction of reputation.
Paper disappears Rock from the social scene. Scissors makes Paper not so pretty anymore. Rock makes scissors UNRECOGNIZABLE. It is also a game of escalation, which tends to be the natural way of things.
