Biological equality

onenerdykidIn matters of general physical ability and in regard to how much muscle is required to play a certain sport, people who are less strong/have less muscle mass will not be as good at sports as those who have the proper amount. That holds true for men and for women. To say that all women are physically inferior to all men is factually incorrect.

WidelyHomierBut on average it is a fact that men are physically superior, there may be outliers and exemptions, but the fact is that the average man is physically superior to the average women.

onenerdykidWhile this is true, you cannot draw the general conclusion in your OP that "women are bad at things like soccer". Such a statement isn't remotely correct since there are plenty of women who are better at soccer than men. What you should have made is a comparison of the world's best men's soccer player vs the world's best women's soccer player, and yes I would most likely agree with you. But to say that women are straight up bad at sports is completely inaccurate.

WidelyHomierI'm just generalising man it's beside the point.

FrenchFryDude women.

FrenchFryDude women just aren't as strong as men plain and simple. It's not rocket appliances.

ianrich511There is no advantage to either gender when it comes to skill.

FrenchFryPeeing with aim??

SFBgirls suck and they r nerds

FrenchFryPeeing with aim??

S.J.WWhy the fuck do you need to aim when you sit down?

nocturnalThey're not equal men are stronger than woman no one can argue that, because believe it or not we are different.

I remember a year back we started talking about woman in the military doing combat I said i didn't want any woman to be going to war in my group with me, everyone freaked out.

http://www.military.com/daily-news/2015/05/08/female-soldiers-fail-to-pass-phase-one-of-army-ranger-school.html and this was after they all got special treatment and weeks of prep and training before. They were also held to a lower standard that the men didn't get. after 3 retrials all the woman still failed patrols, 5 were sent home the 3 retried then failed there patrols again. Think 2 girls ended up passing

VinnieFThey should still learn to aim. Women's toilet seats have pee on them all the time. I get it's because they like to hover, but it can't be that difficult to learn to hit a 10 inch target from 4 inches away.

S.J.Wwhat the fuck are you doing to know how woman's toilet seats have piss on them all the time?

butterslut.generally speaking men are stronger than women, that's genetics, duh. testosterone = muscle mass. there are always exceptions though. Can a female soccer player be better than a male soccer player? Yes! is the best female soccer player better than the best male soccer player? Maybe...anything is possible...but probably not. but, gender does not denote value. so whether one gender is better at a sport than another it doesn't really matter as long as everyone is getting the opportunity to play. I personally think that everybody has skills that they can bring to the table, which is why i enjoy coed sports.

nocturnal"is the best female soccer player better than the best male soccer player?" That's not a maybe that's a no. Also and being that were talking about professional sports no it should not be opportunity to play, it should be the best players on the field whether they be all men or women.

The-RodentLook at the best female and male athletes.
They are both devoted 100% to mastering their craft but women are just physically unable to compete at the same level as men.
You will never see a women anything like Lebron James its just not possible

butterslut.whatever. the main idea is that it doesn't matter who is better or worse we're all still human beings and our worth is the same.

nocturnalAre worth is not the same, it completely depends on what subject you're talking about. With sports men are almost always going to be worth more.

butterslut.im talking entirely generally, we are all human beings with the same feelings and desires. the only thing that differs about us is our genitals and physique. unless youre an extreme idiot sexist and think that men and women have different brains you can just sit over there at the idiot table with the rest of the people from before the 1900s

nocturnalOur brains are different

Download-My-AppsReally? I haven't heard of general anatomical differences between male or female brain. You could easily argue that females out

Aomamethere most certainly are. gyre shape and depth among other things. not saying that means anything but anatomical differences do exist.

Download-My-AppsReally? I haven't heard of general anatomical differences between male or female brain. You could easily argue that females out performing males in school and being able to use higher executive functioning as being reflective of how we encourage each gender to play and interact at a young age, think about what toys girls are given vs. what toys boys are given. I'm not saying there isn't a biological difference between males and females, but the opportunity and the environment (including sports and play) are a huge factors.

These gender stereotypes don't do anyone favours. To simply say girls brains are better at school, boys are better at sport is a massive generalization. And I hat you're looking at things as a little too black or white.

californiagrownIt is entirely accurate and you are splitting hairs and arguing semantics. Are humans faster than Cheetahs? Well sure, if the human is Usain bolt and the cheetah is sick and old. see what i did there. recognize that logic.


In what sport are women superior to men?

Download-My-AppsWell, we can have the first sentence stricken from the record book then...

onenerdykidIf you read all of my replies to the OP, you would see that I was attacking his absolute statement of "women are bad at things like soccer". If you want to have a debate about physical ability, I suggest we state things in general terms not absolute. Of course men are generally physically superior to women and as I said in the post you quoted, if you take the best male example in sport X and the best female example in the same sport the male example will more often than not trump the female. But to say that women are bad at sports is a stupid statement, because you only have to look at real life to see that women are not bad at sports. Is their best example better than the best male example, most often not and I never said they were otherwise.

Your example is not even remotely related to the one I used- at no point did I compare a healthy person to a sick and old person. But let's make things easy for you and keep everyone the same age and same health. You don't think that there could be a girl who could ride a bike faster than a a guy of the same age & health? Obviously there could be and there are. Race stats prove there are faster girls than guys, on the same track nonetheless. Where I will obviously agree with you is that if you look to the fastest guy he is for sure faster than the fastest girl, but there are girls who are faster than some guys. These are examples of girls being better at the same sport than guys of roughly the same age and health.
