Serena Williams is not to be toyed with
According to Last Week's Poll
I was watching Serena (or maybe it was Venus) Williams playing tennis the other day, and it occurred to me: if necessary, would I be capable of establishing physical dominance over her?
Let's say she came into the BGM with a bag full of shit she collected from around her house with no receipt and no evidence it even came from the BGM, and she was adamant about returning it for cash. Which is the kind of shit I generally deal with when I'm not blogging.
Then let's say one thing led to another, and she walked around the corner to where I was standing, intent on putting her shoe on me.
Obviously, I'd be left with no other choice but to defend myself. The question is, would I be able to? Hence, the topic of last week's poll.
Check the results:
In a fight, could you take out Serena Williams?
- No (233 votes)
- Yes (121 votes)
I'm not gonna lie, I voted yes, but I had to think about it.
I'm an exceedingly large man; I can only think of a few women I've ever met who are taller than I am, and I don't know that, physiologically, a woman's legs could even support my sheer body mass. Over the years, I've discovered that I can shake even the sassiest of women to their absolute core just by shouting at them. Which is the kind of shit I have to do from time to time in my series of soul-crushing minimum wage jobs.
But Serena Williams is obviously no average woman. Whatever size advantage I'd have over her, as well as my inherent (obviously) gender advantage would be discounted by the fact that she's built like a ninja who just got out of the joint after having served a 10 year bid. Except, her left arm is just as strong as her right one.
My hope is that I would be able to prevail by channeling a strength similar to what's known as "old man strength," where, a lot of times, an older guy will be able to kick the living shit out of a younger guy who you'd think would have the upper hand, physically.
What do you fruits think? Am I being delusional in thinking that I could take out Serena Williams in a fight?
