I’m what is referred to as a strapping woman, 6 ft 1, 88kg. Reasonably fit.
My 12 year old son is 42kg, 5 ft 2, reasonably fit.
We play a game where we face each other, lock hands and push. He’s beaten me and pushed me back almost every time for the last 3 months, unless I use rat cunning.
Ive been currently reading about the men beating up women in the Olympic boxing. Current TRA line on X is
- They are women
- Even if they aren’t women, it’s the same weight class so it’s fair
- Women and men are physically equal and it’s only because of socialisation that women can be beaten by men.
Well, I repeat, my 12 year old son, nearly half my weight, can beat me in a strength competition. That’s anecdotal, but anyone with half a brain knows that this is the case across the board.
