The difference in physical performance in sports are huge between men and women, how on earth could anyone suggest otherwise? Take discus as an example; males throw a 2kg discus and the weight decreases with age of the competitors in entry (it goes down after age 49), men 60 years old + throw a one kilo discus, while female athletes throw a one kile discus througout their entire career. With that in mind, seeing that the women's record is around 2 meter longer than the men's record, with a discus that weight half as much, that's pretty telling. In the 100 meters dash, the current female world record is the same time that the men had as their best over a century ago and 106 men have broken the 10 second barrier. It is thus reasonable to assume that the best woman in the world is not even in the top 500 of the men, which is also very telling. In the 800 meters, the difference is a whooping 12.5 seconds and on the 1500 meters it's 24 seconds. On 3000 it's around 45 seconds. 5000 meters times are 1.24 minutes apart between men and women and 10.000 meters 2.14 minutes. That's nearly three laps of the track during the fast laps. Long jump shows that women are about 1.5 meters behind in the top tier, triple jump almost 4 meters. The high jump for men has a record that is 36 centimeters above the female record and the female top tier is about the same as the males were in the 1930's. Pole vault shows a difference of 1.10 meters between men and women. In shot put, again we see an object of nearly half the weight (4 kilos versus 7.2) being thrown roughly the same distance (a little shorter, in fact), which says a lot about the huge difference in strength between genders. In javelin, the weight difference is a lot smaller, with the male implement weighing around 33% more (800 grams versus 600 grams for women) and this has a dramatic effect on results, the women's record is a staggering 26.2 meters behind the men's record in this event. Hammer throw is much the same as shot put; they weight 7.2 kilos for men and 4 kilos for women and the women throw it a little bit shorter. In sports like soccer, handball, tennis, volleyball and practically every physical sport there is, men will have a significant advantage with more strength, stamina and usually better coordination due to better spatial awareness. You simply cannot argue against facts; the difference between men and women is sports is massive. |
Well said, I don't think there's really anything else to add to this, men are just better than women at physical sports.
