Transgender man wins women's 100 yd and 400 yd freestyle races.

No you posted to a link that doesn't show that. I'm not doing the heavy lifting of proving your claim. The link didn't do the heavy lifting for your claim, either. You haven't provided any evidence and I don't need any to refute it.

That's a bit reductive, the whole point of the site is the sake of talking.

Good shout, I was thinking sailing as well but that seems to be segregated.

Though I'd imagine we'd see sports using animals banned before we see open category only events at the Olympics.

Is war an olympic event? Are females equally represented on the frontlines in war? (or even according to their %'s?).

That's a bit of a bizarre answer.

Honestly, I think you've lost it here.

In those gorilla troops there are gender roles though.

In fact the silverback case study only reinforces the theory, since Silverbacks would instinctively treat their women as subjugated property. Suggests to this layperson that far from being disprovable nonsense, the gender dichotomy has played a critical role in the development of the species and in particular the distinct traits between male and females:

If we become a species with higher parity in gender roles why would we not develop with parity in physical performance as well.

If you don't want to support your arguments either, I'm not gonna do it for you.

Maybe I'd be arguing for the sake of it if I presented a bunch of conjecture, refused to back it up then attacked people for asking me for proof of my claims.

You're entitled to that view.

I would say that it is interesting to see the same reductive reasoning play out twice the same way for the same argument (OEJ went down the same rabbit hole many months ago) and to be fair, you got to the logical conclusion of that direction much faster.

Though "war" was a bit further out of left field than others (we are of course counting all the open world records set by female war vets 🙂).

I did preface myself as the layperson. I'm a mechanical engineer; not an anthropologist, sociologist, biologist, geneticist, athlete, OB-GYN...

are all women female?

All you've done is play linguistic games? Biological this, biological that.

I guess turnabout isn't fair play. Shuck a duck.

I wouldn't be bringing language into it either, unless we're going to start boiling some couch potatoes :)

To be fair, there is a concerted effort to remove the qualifiers for a lot of sports, e.g. when the ladies team play it's reported as simply "manu v liverpool".

Right now it's the Womens's World Cup and World Cup, either mens gets added or Womens gets dropped.
