“We could do anything boys could do and sometimes better” is about as stupid a statement as it is possible to make yet no one ever corrects them.
The Olympics are coming up. Lets just check the times and distances (for events which are the same) and you will not see girls doing anything as well as boys and most certainly not better.
Oh don’t be fooled by the things they purposely put in to make it seem they are similar. Such as men run 110 meter hurdles over high hurdles. Women run 100 meters over medium high hurdles.
Men throw a 16 pound shot, women throw a much lighter one.
Check the times in the 100 meters. The men’s times will be so superior that an excellent high school boy would beat the women’s world record.
Can women lift the same weight as men? No the can’t and it is not even close.
On the other hand, women can do things men can’t do such as having babies and providing milk for them. Women can usually do very precision work requiring very nimble fingers.
In other words men and women are different, no matter how many lies are told and believed by the stupid among us.
so women have the babies, breast feed and have nimble fingers?....wow....thanks for all the compliments.../sarcasm/
Most sensible post so far. I wonder how many astronaut-qualified males were passed over to allow this female her chance at breaking the glass ceiling.
They don’t give women different hurdle heights and weights in track and field events to ‘make them seem similar’, but to fit them to their physical scale and capabilities.
Sports can be just as exhilarating for women as for men and just as much a challenge. You sound like you resent women competing in sports at all.
Horses can run much faster than men, but that doesn’t mean men’s races are without merit.
