Yup! Ballerinas scare me more than bodybuilders--THEY LOOK SO TINY BUT THEY ARE MADE OF MUSCLE, IT'S CRAZY. And they're fast and agile! YOU HAVE NO CHANCE.
It's something that bothers me about people saying "delicate looking girls can't put up a realistic fight." It supports the idea that only one kind of body shape is a "fighter's" shape when a fighter can look portly, be as dainty as a doll or anything in between. Everyone confuses a body builder's physique with "fighter" and it just isn't the case.
