You do realize how commonly women are raped and abused by men
You do realize how commonly men are beaten and murdered, don't you?
they might happen to be more sensitive to the implicit or explicit threats
Oops, you're lowering the castle defenses now... Didn't you hear your sisters in arms giving you your marching orders? You're not supposed to admit that women are more sensitive to abuse... You're supposed to tow the party line, claiming that the only cause is evil men are being more verbally abusive to women.
I'm tall, 182 centimeters, and I still once had a guy literally pick me up and carry me back to his apartment when I tried to walk away from him.
Men are stronger than women, no question. Carrying a knife will even things out quite nicely, though. Clawing out eyes works pretty good, too.
In the list of people who are treated special, can we exclude female body builders and throw in any and all physically small or frail men? If physical abilities are the only determinant, we've gotta have a few categories, including the linebackers you mentioned. Female midgets must get the best treatment of all.
