Chances are good, physically, you will be stronger than a woman. But that matters less than you think. Because, the strength is in your mind. My martial arts teacher told me "It's not a matter of big or small, strong or weak, it's all in your head, and the only size that matters is the one of the beast within you" And he just blew me away, because I realised, holy shit, it's true. I believe, STRONGLY, that a man can overpower a woman, simply because he has been told all his life that he can. He is confident, violent, does not hesitate. A woman will be weak, afraid, fear for her life, becauase she has been told she can stand no chance against a man, that she is weak. But I can say, from personal experience actually, if you shed your fear, if you without holding back even one bit, use your full strength, the difference will decrease dramatically. It's all in your head. So women, if you're able to realise that, become strong.
And I would like to add one more thing, before I go. (Fellas, you won't like this) Those two glands men have hanging between their legs are very convenient to aim for. Only do it in an emergency, though! But if you land a good punch (Or kick) in his nuts, he isn't doing anything for a while ;)
At the same time, kicking a woman in the groin can be just as incapacitating.
Note: I saw a History Channel program on Muay Thai, and the master that is the subject of the program once killed his opponent by accident with a blow to the groin.
