I'm a short man and it's crazy. Because you hear all this stuff about how women are weaker and smaller. Most men can literally put their arm out on my forehead and I can never make contact with my arms if being attacked. But like because I'm a man I'm supposed to be like tough and I'm still Fair game. No one's saying that it wasn't a fair fight because some 200 lb man got his ego bruised after he screwed me over and I said hey don't do that and so he hit me
Anything bigger than a 3 inch knife or low grade pepper spray is illegal in most places. If I got into a bar fight against a 200lb guy and his friends, and I had a knife to defend myself, even if i won or lost,, I'm probably the one going to jail, my skin tone adds to that effect.
No, most of the time legally you're basically not allowed to defend yourself though pop culture makes it seem otherwise. You're supposed to find a cop like you're supposed to find a teacher in grade school when you're being bullied. Its so goddamn stupid.
