No, girls are not weak (physically or mentally).
He never mentioned mental weakness.

I believe part of the perception that girls/women are weak comes from:
1. Women were not given much rights in the past and honestly jokes like "why is she out of the kitchen" or "go make me a sandwich" basically illustrate the power play.
2. Media images of models as ultra-thin has led many young girls to pursue this image and as a result many do end up extremely skinny and physically weak.
3. Take a look at the news and see how many fights, arguments, wars etc. are basically caused by men. Violence is sometimes associated with strength.
You cannot deny the genetical differences between the both genders, stop claiming that all differences are due to social constructs.
1. If women are just as strong as men, why are the very stongest men stronger than the very stongest women?
2. Oh lawdy. Media bombards males with pictures of muscular, handsome men, yet you don't see me (and many others like me) running around trying to look like a model.
3. I've never in my life seen my male friends fight with eachother. Girls, however, act as if they lived only to fight. They get mad at each other all the time for the most trivial of reasons. Backtalking, backstabbing and feuds with "friends" seems to be part of everyday life for many females. So don't give me that damned arguement.
