I feel like you are conflating things here. Wife beating for example is made worse by the fact that men typically have a lot of power over their wives. To take a less problematic example, think beating up a subordinate at work - it is much worse than beating up any random schmuck because of the power dynamics at play
Okay, perhaps the example was inappropriate then, but no matter how current society tries to distort the issue, it is enough to investigate any world-setting record weight lifting competitions and other areas of extreme sports to learn that men genuinely are biologically far physically stronger and to a lesser degree faster than women. It really usually is bullying for a man to beat up a woman.

That said, the most dangerous female fighters in the world are obviously considerably superior to average men, and there are many women who regularly brutally beat their husbands simply because the latter won't fight back due to chivalry and/or stigma, so it is not a onesided situation.
 
I do not understand what you are trying to say here. Please elaborate.
A straw man fallacy occurs when someone takes another person's argument or point, distorts it or exaggerates it in some kind of extreme way, and then attacks the extreme distortion, as if that is really the claim the first person is making.
 
Okay. That was not my intention. Sorry. I was trying to speak in more general terms.
 
Thank you. I will close this thread then.

Also, a final comment about that I simply think that some people have turned confused regarding what true sexism really means, and that refusing to harm women does not qualify, but it is still idiotic in this particular fictional case.
