I do not feel this way. And both times I was fighting an attempt at forcibly rape in my young years, I won quickly, surprising myself with my strength. I was not lifting weights or anything at that time. Granted, I also quietly threatened the attackers with the police but they must have realized that I could not call the police and thus it was an empty threat. So yes, both times I really surprised myself. Once at 16, the other time at 25. A little later, at 26, I was acquaintance raped because I could not say no to the man, and I could not say no because I felt that I had owed to him for various favors such as watching my toddler son on occasion and in general being nice to me. I was furious with him afterwards but in the act, no, I could not assert my boundaries.

Other negative experiences with men have all revolves around manipulations and my emotional vulnerability and susceptibility. Never around being physically weaker.

On a separate note, I like strong physique in men but only up to a limit. I find the bodybuilders' bodies funny rather than attractive.
