You'll probably have a definitive answer by the time you finish reading this sentence, but hold on. I mean it. Stop for a sec.
I think if you really consider this necessary question for any considerable amount of time, your decision will get significantly harder. Now you're rethinking your answer and don't want to make a decision yet. Me neither. The only possible way to do this is to go over the pros and cons of each:
Really Small Hand
Pros:
Small fist inflicts concentrated pain
Pressing more than a single button on any type of keypad = non-issue
Kid-sized gloves/baseball mitts/mittens cost less
Miniature knuckles hard to hit during game of Quarters
Cons:
Hand can be easily crushed doing everyday activities such as giving a handshake or saluting
Impossible to grab certain objects securely (ie youth-sized football or YooHoo beverage)
Limited hand strength results in loss of ability to clutch/grasp
Hand signals such as thumbs up or "hang loose" indistinguishable
Obnoxiously Large Throat
Pros:
Extra mass of throat acts like reserve food basin
Throat can be used as miniature TV tray, holding 2-3 pizza rolls easily
Fills out a turtle neck or turtle neck unishort divinely
Can be used to deliver a discreet punishing blow (aka throat-butt)
Cons:
Heavy protrusion can make talking/attracting the opposite sex difficult
Singing voice is permanent Sub-Bassitone (a new sound pitch category created for people with obnoxiously large throats)
Shaving is considered a suicide attempt
Can be easily choked by a t-shirt or small child
Hmmmmm. I'm gonna go with the really small hand. Just the thought of doing several quick karate chops in rapid succession with pinpoint accuracy makes my soul smile.
