Why do some people seem to think a boy can overpower an adult woman?

I hear some men saying a 14 year old can overpower an adult woman if he wants to and so he can't get molested or raped.

Do people realise there are many women who can overpower a boy that age?

  • Very true but as @msc545 pointed out most female sexual predators don’t overpower their victims

    • Predators manipulate their victims, they don't rape them most of the time. Regardless of their gender

  • Lots of women out there who can overpower 14 year old boys. I know women who can easily overpower the average man.

    • Thanks

  • Yes, I believe Men talk out their ass, If a Woman wants to overpower a high hormonal teenage boy age 14 I believe she can do it , She could also kick him in the balls

  • Some 14 year old boys would be thrilled that an older woman wanted to have sex with them and would do it willingly, not realizing they are being used, coerced, and manipulated. Physically, some 14 year old boys are big and could overpower an adult woman, and some are not.

    • Exactly it depends

    • I have just one problem with the "used, coerced and manipulated" theory. What does a women want other than sex? Boys do not have money. Some might have a car. Only one thing is sex and its the exact thing a boy wants. So if a boy wants it how can it be these things? And just try and make the defense that he didn't know thats what she wants. I am not against the idea just want to understand this theory?

    • @josephinelcajon many girls that age would love to just have sex with [insert sexy celebrity here]. That doesn't mean it wouldn't be immoral for the celebrity to have sex with the teenager. Adults should know better & that they shouldn't be having sex with teenagers.

  • Because most people just overestimate male strength. Also they confuse extremes with averages. Can an average young man overpower an average adult woman? Probably not, but that doesn't mean that every woman can overpower every young man. The other thing you're up against is the popular idea that women don't rape. It's myth that's populated by multiple sources.

  • They can. Addrenaline and if well built. Heck if a woman is for example strangling the poor boy to death. let's say because he touched her butt. He could overpower her in that moment in desperation for survival.

    • It depends on the woman and boy

    • and situation. Some think and under certain circumstances

  • Why you so obsessed with this topic?

  • I think it is so too. 16+ has enough strength unless the women is a gym goer

  • There are a few women that could overpower the average 14-year-old boy. In fact, a few women can overpower the average adult men. However, as a general rule adult women can not overpower 14-year-old boys. That was proven when a group of under 15 boys defeated the US Women's National and world champion soccer team.

  • This true on both sides. It depends on the boy and girl..

  • Depends what weapons he has on him or knock out drugs

  • yes there are many women who could over power a 14 year but depending on how much he knows in terms of fighting ability it wouldn't matter how strong she was if he could use her weight against her or some other form of fighting style

  • well I guess it's possible, by why would the boy want to? if I was 14 again I would enjoy being overpowered by an adult woman,,,

  • At age 14 I was benching over 100 pounds easy and I wasn't even that into lifting. Men are objectively stronger than women, a woman who lifts regularly can't out perform a man who lifts regularly in terms of heavy weights.

    All that being said, many boys nowadays drink so much soy they probably are weaker than women.

    • Not boys tough. And every woman who lifts would overpower a 14 year old boy

    • I would hope so. Don't think there's any data behind that.

    • You shouldn't hope lol

  • Are you talking about actual fight, or just pure strength measurement?
    If a grown woman is fit and knows how to fight - she would probably win.
    If it's an average woman against an average boy - I'm not sure, but outcome would probably vary.
    If it's pure lifting contest - I'd say a boy still wins.

  • haha yeah

    The Russian weightlifting team was full of potential rapists.

  • I know when I was a boy I could I was 6'0 at 15 years old

    • Crazy...

    • So you see some young boys can over power grown women. But I never had to cause they like me

  • Seeing teen boys now, the antibiotic infested generation, I believe it.

  • Some probably could but not all

  • That’s true for both boys and girls.
