On the contrary, I quite agree. Its a common fallacy that women are weaker than men. Women simply have a different muscle structure than men. Women don't get as massive as a man does, ie if they work out they won't bulk out as much. I would say that a man has higher ultimate strength point than a woman, but that's only in extreme power building cases. Jane who works out at the Y, could very easily beat the crap out of Joe who works out at the Y just as much. Provided that Jane is a better fighter. In fact women are quite deceptive when they work out because they don't get massive. Getting this to a Ranma example (if we were dealing with real life) Kodachi would probably be stronger than Kuno because of all the strength excercise required for gymnastics. Shampoo is more than likely quite stronger than Mousse because of her amazon combat training. *****JUSTY***** [ArchBishop of the Church of Nabiki] [ICQ# -Its Broke Again-] [Gate 4 * Washu-chan's Little Lab & Justicar's Pocket Dimension] [The other half of Super-Deformed Gaijin Productions] [#WASHU# | O.C.S. | C.O.R.R. | T.A.A.T.M. | C.B.U.B. | U.G.M.A.] [http://pages.map.com/~ebaker] [July 95 R-ML] - - - - "Who needs the infinite love and wisdom of Ganesha when I have...
