Yes, serious question.

I’ve read in the news about stereotypical looking nerds who have killed a person by strangling them with their thighs. As in, they jumped on the person and then wrapped their thighs across the person’s neck (like a boa constrictor or a pair of scissors) squeezed their thighs together and then slowly suffocated them in that way.

I’ve also heard of non fatal cases where the victim was still unable to break out unless the nerdy guy let him/her get out. Every time the person who was strangled remarked about how the strength of their thighs was spooky and it freaked them out.

Is there a reason why nerdy guys seem to have strong thighs? If so why? Is it something in their diet or do the genes that make someone susceptible to being a nerd also make the muscles in the thighs stronger?
