Originally posted by Meikai I mean… is the difference in obesity rates for women and men considerably larger than you'd expect, taking into account the fact that women on average have ~100% more body fat than men (lb for lb, a fat chick is gonna be FAT relative to a guy). Like, we probably shouldn't expect exactly double obesity rates, but I feel like it's gotta be enough that it would be very noticeable. Theory: this is probably represented everywhere, in every country, in the general distribution of how skinny/fat people look - surely, women are ~always the curvier sex.

Originally posted by aldra I unironically agree with this to a degree, but at what point does the individual's ability to 'equalise' combat against greater and greater numbers of attackers actually start to become more of a problem than the crime it's meant to hedge against?
in essence being armed allows a woman to defeat a larger, stronger man who means to harm her - a single-shot pistol would do the job. what if there were two men? you'd need more than one bullet. if she's anxious or nervous, probably a lot more.
at what point should it stop though? fully automatic weapons allow you or a small team to use fire team tactics, but can also be used to take a group by surprise and kill them quickly. man-portable rocket weapons can defend against light vehicles but can also be be used to destroy a train or a plane as it takes off or lands. nuclear weapons serve as an effective deterrent but could be used to raze a city.
as weapons are made available to address power disparities between people and groups, they also empower the individual to use those weapons offensively or recklessly.
personally I'm all for legalisation of all kinds of weapons but I don't think it's possible for a society or state to function if the individual is empowered in such a way, past some point or other
So the good lil sheep thinks the government should not have to fear the people. -
