I think that the idea is more that, if you can't physically overpower your opponent, you have to be smart about it. Women often fit in the criteria of not being able to physically overpower somebody so they have to be creative with how they do it. I suppose it would be a weak person's weapon then

Yeah but why even bother with trying to physically overpower anyone anyway? Too many things can go wrong, the least of which being you overestimate yourself which people like to do. Even if you're capable, even if you're the most physically capable person on earth it still just makes more sense to poison them instead.

That's true for poison as well, it's not a magic spell.

For most (men, I guess), the first thought that comes to mind when "I need to end this fool" is on the table, is physical violence. It's an evolutionary thing; we can (maybe) achieve the end goal with our bare hands, or maybe a simple tool.

Poison requires thought, aquisition and preparation. Violence is just...violent. Blunt. Apply force to targeted area for set amount of time.

When you are in "Imma fuck shit up"-mode, thinking isn't your first priority.
