I think my biggest eye opening moment was doing martial arts in my 20s. I've always known men are stronger but I'm very small so used to equate their strength with their size. In martial arts I was the second strongest woman in my group and could hit and kick harder than much bigger women. But the first time my instructor got me to practice defensive moves on the smallest man in our group was mind blowing. He was smaller than many of the women I was stronger than but it took him no effort to pin me. I felt like when a normal person goes up against Superman.
I think that most women who genuinely understand the physical differences between men and women are women who do sports or strength training. Especially male dominated sports. Most women like those in the video haven't done any sports since pe at school and they skipped most of those classes because of cramps. Then they watched Buffy and thought it was a documentary. They don't truly know just how strong men are and they don't ever feel good from sports and know why they shouldn't take it off women who do love it. It's why I have the most contempt for women like Megan Rapinoe. She fucking knows full well that she's lying and she knows what she's taking off the women coming up after her.

Then they watched Buffy and thought it was a documentary.
And totally ignored the fact that Buffy is (because of the Slayer thing) enhanced well above human norms for either sex. Which didn't keep her from getting ragdolled anyway on occasion.

I genuinely cannot believe that any woman with male friends/siblings/partners is not aware of the difference. Though there's a difference between knowing men are stronger and understanding how fucking easy it is for someone to pin you down or move you around even if you're struggling. That's what they don't get. I think for most it becomes very clear around puberty and those who don't get the memo either get a sad and painful lesson later or aim to take away women's sports because they don't understand how large that gap is.
