Guys, would it bother you if your girlfriend is stronger than you?

[Anonymous]

I’ve unfortunately learned that I’m stronger than 3 out of 4 men in my family. I played arm wrestling with them and when we started, neither of our arms were moving which indicated we were the same strength. Their arms were involuntarily shaking and I beat them. Unfortunately, my arm is really sore because I was straining and putting everything I had into it but I never expected any of them to lose. I hate being strong, it makes me feel insanely masculine and I fear I could be stronger than my boyfriend/husband one day.

I don't think this is a real woman, but instead, one of those guys who get off of female domination and muscle chicks that look like men.

In either case, it sounds like the men in your family are all soy-fed weaklings who are an embarrassment to their gender. But to answer the question, no, it wouldn't bother me if she was stronger. Because I'd just push myself to get stronger than her. And if it was impossible, I wouldn't be dating her anyway, cause I don't get to date She Hulk, Wonder Woman, or any other superhuman women out there.

I’m a biological woman. I wish I could say I was a guy because it’d be less embarrassing.

[MCheetah]

How tall are you? And are you slender, medium build, heavyset, or muscular?

[Asker]

I’m 5’6, 280 pounds and I do work with dogs which may play role in my strength.

It wouldn't bother me, I think it would just make a relationship a bit more unique. There is nothing wrong with being strong as a woman, even stronger than the men in your life. Just because someone is different doesn't mean that they are worse.

There are probably few times that your strength over the man in your life will actually be an issue, if you have a healthy relationship all that should happen is that you can help lift things a bit more. In the old days women used to do a lot of manual labour and your strength would have been used more.

Being stronger than a man is like being richer than a man. Logically it isn't actually a problem but some people make it out to be. If you actually like each other and treat each other nicely, it shouldn't matter if you are 10X a mans strength because there wouldn't actually be any problems created by that.

[TheUniqueOne96]

No, but it would be a bit awkward if she doesn't train and I do, lol, but some people are just stronger anyway.

As long as she's not violent towards me or anything, then it's not a problem, especially if she's also bigger and taller than me, like my ideal partner would be.

Barack Obama doesn't, so why should any of us?

Never mind Bary is the woman and Michelle is the man.

It's a good think you don't compare the general public to famous people because they're all trannies.

But really some of us do and some don't. Doesn't make more difference than the color of your skin.

Maybe the men in your family are just weak- you also may have strained your tendon. Arm wrestling is a poor judge of overall strength, because all you need to do is resist movement via placing pressure on your tendon, then torqueing down with your shoulder (especially if your arm is longer). You don't really engage either your bicep or tri in arm wrestling, and if you keep doing it you're going to have tendonitis.

The only way that can happen is if the girl goes to the gym and the guy never even lifts anything hard. Men are naturally stronger which makes it almost impossible for women to be stronger.

A perfect example is. I can deadlift 100 kg and only started recently to lift. A friend of mine is quite skinny and only gets 50 kg done I'm more on the heavy side. I doubt a woman of the same skinny size can lift 50kg

Most or lots of guys could still be stronger than you though. Maybe there is more to the story. How old are you and your brothers? If they are younger maybe they haven’t fully developed yet. Maybe they are just built to be really skinny and most guys are still stronger?

This is not possible because I do isometrics. Those can give you the strength to break chains and bend metal (add to that testosterone). If you're worried about being stronger than your boyfriend just make sure he trains the same way. It's why Bruce-Lee used them (isometric chain and bar + spring).

[Iron_Man]

I couldn’t imagine that, that would freak me out. That would make her a monster and I’m a Hulk this is after COVID-19 I’m bigger now my arms

[delta50]

As pros/cons go it would be in the cons column. I wouldn’t rule out a stronger girl if our personalities clicked but it’s not my preference.
My advice is to be assertive with guys you find attractive.

[Hairylegs222]

I wouldn't have a woman that's stronger then me. I don't find that attractive. It's cute when she's small and thin 😍. It's hot when she likes my muscles. The other way around would be weird to me.

If you think arm wrestling is some reliable measure of strength you may want to let the power lifters know. Real strength isn’t measured in numbers or pounds. It’s about whether you can push someone’s hand down in a game.

[JDAC092299]

No tbh I’d love that as I imagine with that strength comes self confidence more often than not, This isn’t a nice opinion I know but being with someone who isn’t confident is such a drag.

On the flip side, you would be able to fight off a pedophile rapist. Be able to beat the crap out of them. IF you need some inspiration of strong ladies... Look at MMA fighters, look at the Vikings fighting along side men.

[HighValue]

Can she still look weak and wimpy? Skinny and petite like Ariana Grande's build or weaker looking?

[wowop99266]

Of course not. I don't care as long as she knows she will have to be the submissive one in the relationship.

Although I'm sure it would bother the majority of women if they were stronger than their partner.

[Berethor]

No guy wants an amazon trope, yes it would bother me if a girl is more masculine than me.

[Summeroflove]

No. I find it attractive. Though I do need to work on getting in better shape.

[DavidRaul]

No not at all. Why would it bother me. But i have been into strength training so you can't just deny the fact

[Quidthonian]

It would bother me. I would respect a woman like that. I consider myself physically weak man, so a strong woman by my side... that would be nice.

[exitseven]

It would make me workout harder but it would not bother me.

[YakubDavid]

If it doesn't make her personally insecure, I wouldn't care. She's still mine. So what he heck.
