Riiiight ... all you need to do is lift a sword. That's it.
Someone much stronger won't pummel the shit out of you, wear heavy armor on top of the sword so you can't do shit, send your sword flying and chop your arm off while you REEEEe about equity.

You'd think actual, practicing martial artists would know damn well how reality works out when you put men up against women.
Which probably suggests to me two things; either they're complete and utter LARPers in the worst way and don't really stress-test, women are so rare in thier hobby that it never gets put to the test, or they're just simping heavily.
It's a coin-flip either way, but I'd probably pick a combo of the last two.
They do. That's why there are countless age categories in tournaments and men and women have seperate events.
Edit: Here are the britbong fencing categories for example: https://www.britishfencing.com/gbr-fencing/age-group-definitions/
Yup. I've helped out in a number of tournaments. It's always interesting to see how the age/gender divide works out.
Hint: You really don't see many women participating in tournaments, even when they're allowed in as white-belts, locally. To get any appreciable number requires you to start pulling from all across the country.
