It reminds women that they have control over men's conduct that men do not have over women

I take it you've never actually talked to a woman before if you think being polite and decent can't encourage her to do the same.

My view actually looks a step in to the future, what does yours do? It's an ideology, it's not a working practice.

Your general philosophy is "they won't hurt you if they're afraid of you." That's all well and good, provided you can accurately predict and control that fear. A far more effective approach is "they won't hurt you if they can't hurt you," because then you can guarantee that control (and, by extension, you don't have to do anything if they can't hurt you). Disabling your attacker will much more reliably protect you than trying to intimidate them will.

A stubbed toe is self-inlicted,

And could have been prevented if the object in question didn't exist. Why not take such steps to prevent such a grave threat to your personal safety?

1 is the denominator, they are equal, 100N and 300N are the numerators. The outcome is different as they apply different amounts, but they both supply a single blow. Strike 1 is worth 100, strike 2 is worth 300.

You really are bad at math. 100N is the numerator in the expression I gave, but not in the calculation of the percentage in the first place (which is what I mentioned denominators in reference to). A 100N punch when one can exert a maximum of 100N is a 100% punch. A 100N punch when one can exert a maximum of 300N is a 33% punch. 100N=100N, ergo, 100%=33% if you account for the difference in denominators (maximum strength).

Simple math. Unequal punches are not equal.

You have failed to display why a human would be wrong to deliver a tried and true methodology of establishing dominance to suppress aggressors.

Because being intelligent allows for more nuanced risk assessment and negotiations, thereby expending less total effort, minimizing total injury, and maximizing total productivity. Pointless violence doesn't help anyone.
