Why in case of a stab (especially if the person stabbed is significantly tall) - its the belly which usually gets wounded?
I (21f) am a pretty short (5’2") fencer (HEMA, rapier), and I often get advice to target a tall opponent’s belly with my rapier. Also I’ve attended a self-defense class, and the instructor gave me advice to go for the abdomen of a tall attacker, if I have a pocket knife in my hand.


Must be tall and live in london. Bro’s gonna get some armor to walk outside.
According to the post he’s a fencer so he’s already got armor lol
I’m a 21 y. o. girl and 5’2", not a guy and not tall anyway. And yep, I’m a fencer.
My apologies
Don’t assume this person is telling you the truth.

Their pronouns can be whatever they tell me they are, although it is suspicious that her username and height continuously changes.
