Try being left-handed in a right-handed world.

What nonsense.

You might hurt gen z's feelings with that vertically challenged talk. At least with American gen z's, they're short asses.

I'll take your remarks as wanting to know what my reasoning behind my observations is. Think of all the pesticides/herbicides that people spray in their homes, lawns... and how the younger generations are indoors than previous generations. Put two and two together, along with the poor diets they receive from schools or just your typical highly processed factory foods the majority of Americans eat.

The piano hand span thing is probably overblown. Most pieces don't require you to play more than an octave, and smaller hands can have some advantages as well. I would say that a bigger issue for woman pianists is having to sit upright all of the time, and reliance on chest muscles, in which women obviously have other things there than men do.

All these daily irritations are examples of what happens when women have to use products, software and spaces that have been designed by men, for men. They fail to take into account women’s typically smaller size and different needs.
Did I miss the part where women are prohibited from designing products for use by women?

Cars are designed for people who are 5'8".

As a very short fat person I think seats at baseball stadiums were built for really skinny tall people. That' does not stop me from going to ball games.

I don't get this, are companies really supposed to spend millions in R&D and millions more just to make seperate male and female versions of different phones, cars, bookshelfs etc.?

Well, that is rather what the Japanese did with the T-61 tank.


Now, on another front, from both sides of the coin.


I don't make too much of an argument about it when it comes to guns because if the balloon goes up, I may not have too much of a choice to what I can get my hands on.


But on the other hand, while I love my USP, I do think that the years of having to adjust to it are causing joint issues. But on the other hand to that, that with the shakes I have now, with that thing being so heavy, I still can shoot straight.


But, even so, when it comes to rifles, I prefer the carbines to the full size because they are easier for me to use.

Gov't supplied '70s style platform shoes should take care of that.
