Most murders in the US are done with handguns. I’m sure even out of shape women are totally capable of committing murder.
Even considering size, there’s a huge overlap between women and men in size. Plenty of men are the height and weight of an average woman. But they don’t seem to be as fearful of walking alone and they aren’t significantly less likely to commit murder themselves. It’s a complex situation, but I think the biggest factor is the relationship between violence and patriarchy.
