About girls' self-esteem?

[emrekaankeles]

Have you noticed that even if he argues or fights with a panda-like man, the girl in question will say to him, "I'll beat you!" He can say something like this or hit him. Where does this self-confidence in girls come from? If men see someone a little stronger than them, they step back. Is the reason for this self-confidence in girls because they think that the other person will not hit me anyway, or because they act without thinking about the possible consequences, or because they cannot control their anger?

Yeah man I've noticed that too. Girls definitely seem to have more confidence standin' up to dudes even if they're bigger. Couple reasons I think:

- Like you said, they know most guys won't hit a girl no matter what. So they feel safer talkin trash.

- Guys are kinda brought up to keep their cool and not show when they're mad. Girls ain't afraid to speak their mind, consequences be damned!

- Girls are feisty little things. They just don't back down easy even if outsized. Maybe gotta prove they ain't weak or scare easy.

- Testosterone for sure makes guys wanna fight quicker. Estrogen chills girls out a bit so they think before swingin fists.

- Also society respects girls who stand up for themselves more maybe. For a dude it's seen as loss of control but for a girl it shows she ain't a doormat.

So I think it's like a mix of social norms, hormones, and not bein afraid to speak their mind. Guys could prob learn some of that too instead of always backin down!
