Language warning, as is standard when a liberal feminist makes a startling discovery, a profanity-laced rant against the state of the world results:
Are you F—— kidding me? With relatively little training, men in my weight class can lift ONE HUNDRED POUNDS MORE THAN ME? Just a few months in, y’all can lift 274 lbs to a woman’s 174? 57% more? A HUNDRED POUNDS? Are you f——- kidding? That much more? I had no idea. You guys are that much stronger? Serious? I got genuinely angry. I still am. I didn’t know, and it is so UNFAIR.
This rant would be funny if it wasn’t so pathetic.
Poor little entitled feminist.
My main concern is the safety of male police officers and firefighters, who are put on the beat or in a fire truck off to a three-alarm blaze, with their much less physically able female counterparts.
So, the makeup of males is that they’re physically 60% stronger than females? So what? That would explain why they go hunting while women go gathering, and why it’s typically males that go to war and women who keep the home fires burning. (Hey, we have breasts with which to feed our young, but that’s another story.)
Male strength makes me, a female, feel protected by the males around me, not pi**ed off. I’m grateful, not envious.
But then, I’m not a poor little entitled feminist.
“Male orgasms are essential to the procreative process while female orgasms aren’t.”
Actually not exactly true. When a woman has an orgasm is helps propel those male sperm on their merry way on their journey to seek out the egg; as for the female sperm, they don’t need any help – they’re already great swimmers.
I think women who are quite tall and/or heavy might feel they should be as strong as men of similar height and weight, but the fact is the strength of a being is in the design and the amount of the muscle. Take a gorilla for instance, you wouldn’t want to mess with one – they are powerful animals – all in the design.
The strongest muscle in the human body proportional to size is the uterus, so there you have it – women rule! Mind you, I’m sure men could make a similar claim if they had a mind to – pun intended.
Speaking of male strength: A few years ago I was driving to a picnic on an army base, and managed to get one set of the minivan’s wheels in a ditch. A group of soldiers was jogging past, noticed my dilemma, and offered to help. I started to get out of the car to get my kids out, but they said, “Stay where you are, ma’am.” About 6 (or was it 8?) of them LIFTED the minivan out of the ditch, with us in it.
It was as close to swooning as I’ve ever come …
Thanks for sharing the tip. Because of an left-arm fracture two years ago (spiral below the elbow, with crushed wrist at no extra accident), I have to use a 15-lb dumbbell for bicep curves, palm up, in order to get my left bicep comparable with my right.
Daniel, I can empathize. About 4 years ago I shattered my arm in a mountain bike accident; 14 fractures, one compound. It took me about two years to get back to 95% and after three years 99% of the pain is gone but my arm is still not quite as big as the other. I use a curling bar and now put 5 extra pounds on the injured side. The first three months after the accident I would have killed myself if I had the strength, it was a nightmare.
