Kari,
I've gotten the same revelation numerous times during my teen years. During one of my dreams that I was a female, I took careful note of how small and feminine my hands and arms were. It dawned on me that if I was ever in an abusive relationship or got into a physical altercation of some kind, I most likely won't be able to defend myself.
In the real world, one of my roommates in college was much taller and bigger than me. Whenever I was near him I felt like I was a short and small person. This realization didn't make me feel intimidated, rather it made me think about how most females probably feel when they're around me. If the vast majority of males were 6'3"+ and weighed 220+ lbs maybe it would be easier for you and me to pass as female?
