To go into even more detail....


A sport, any sport, is defined more by the limitations and challenges placed on the athletes and competitors than by their maximum acchievement. This is blatantly obvious by looking at the competitions. You can go faster running straight than jumping over hurdles. So why do hurdles? You can throw farther with a small rock than a hammer. So why the hammer throw? You can swim a lot faster with free style than with butterfly. So why swim butterfly? The answer is because the interesting thing about sports isn't just seeing how fast someone can run and how hard they can hit, but how far people can go in the face of limitations. The average man punches much harder and faster, and has wider reach, than the average woman. No one who knew what they were talking about would dispute this. It's also true that the average Muay Thai fighter would drop the average Western boxer in a fight in about five seconds. That's because the boxer is trained in a sport that has rules and limitations that don't actually help you in a real fight. But do we, because of this, say that boxing is a joke and a stupid sport, because it's less effective in a no-holds barred fight than Muay Thai? No. Because boxing is a seperate sport, and within that field the boxer is quite skilled. Likewise, a champion free style swimmer will outpace a champion butterfly swimmer every single time, but we don't call the latter an obsolete joke, because the swimmer is clearly skilled within the limitations and rules of his or her field. Likewise with male and female . Men are generally better at most sports, simply due to their genetics. To attempt to disprove this would be pointless. It's more interesting to see which women have the skill, drive, and willpower to succeed against others on their own level, than to try and see how many handful of women out of a thousand can hold their own in a inter-gender wrestling championship.
