One of those lines that really stuck with me for awhile was True Detective Season 2.
“The fundamental difference between the sexes is that one of them can kill the other with their bare hands.”
Never had it laid so bare for me before but on average, that’s probably true which must be fucking terrifying. As a guy I’ve been in a handful of scraps but if I’d weighed 30% less and had a lot less muscle, those would have been really dangerous. (Except for that one kid who punched my jaw so weakly and drunkenly off target that all I could do was howl with laughter.)
Jesus! At first I thought that was a bit of an oexaggeration (and I think it is a little bit, as how much of his additional weight is muscle etc) but I’m decently muscled and am slightly less than 30% his weight without much body fat.
Wow. That would be terrifying. I absolutely would not hang out in a lot of the sketchy areas I love.
Edit: Checked, our height difference and the average height difference for North American men n women is also pretty similar. That’s a wildly, and increasingly appropriate image!

Or imagine if half of the people around you were the size of The Rock by comparison 😳
