I (24m) am 6’6" tall. One of my female friends who’s 5’5" told me that my height makes my belly particularly vulnerable in case if I get attacked with a pocket knife, for example. Why is it so?
Is this a novelty account or something, what’s with the fixation on your belly? You’ve been milking this subject for 2 months.
Yeah I noticed that. This is the second day in a row I’ve seen a post like this
A month ago he was asking people in the comments if his height makes his belly more vulnerable to attacks. Definitely this post is disingenuous, even if we can’t figure out the motive.
Not seen the other posts, but maybe the question has not been answered or the answer they are looking for hasn’t been said
So he was wondering in two other posts about belly wounds from swords and asked if being tall made him more vulnerable. And then by coincidence a coworker told him that being tall made him vulnerable to being stabbed in the belly by a pocket knife? And he didn’t know what she meant by that but had asked others the same question a month earlier?
Honestly, if someone pulls a knife you’re fucked anyway. I like to say that the best sport for self defence is track running. Less risk of being injured, and no risk of dealing with legal consequences of injuring someone.
At last, the justification I needed for wearing a chainmail undergarment!

What the fuck have you done. Go down the comment thread to see your generated images.
Yeah, last time someone tried to mug me, I realized he had two buddies behind me forming a triangle around me.
Like, I’m a big guy, the three of them added together might have had 50 pounds on me tops. And I was drunk and stupid enough I was just going to fight my way out of it.
But after a punch to the face I sobered up enough to realize what was going on and that if either of those guys behind me had a knife I was completely fucked. And we were in a nightlife area where there was literally at least one stabbing a weekend.
So I just made a path thru the one in front of me and gtfo.
I don’t know if muggings are as popular as they used to be now that no one carries cash, but if I see a gun or knife I’m 100% giving it up.
I’d probably try to take my ID out first. But even that’s a mild inconvenience, nothing close to getting shot/stabbed over.
Maybe she’s really bad at flirting?
“Omg OP, it’d be so easy to cut you open and see your pretty guts. Lol jk, here’s my number, you should come over and see my knife collection some time“
I’m guessing she meant that it’s a larger target so it would be easier to hit vs. trying to stab a smaller person
Are internal organs proportionally larger on tall people, or are the the same size as those in short people but with more empty space around them? If it’s the latter, then being tall would probably give you a better chance of surviving a single random stab to your stomach area right?
