This is why esports are the future. The problem is that men dominate gaming and the few women who do game have a million incentives to not go pro. Eventually though woman pro players competing among men as peers will be the norm.

The crazy thing is women typically have better reaction time and sometimes hand eye coordination. A lack of opportunity and hostile environments drive women out of a lot of gaming and sports.

I have looked at many studies, none of which have ever said that women have better reaction time. All of them say that men do.

If they could take being called the nword, stupid, autistic, fat, short, skinny, nerd, virgin, bad, dogshit, retarded, roomtempratureIQ, cracker, commie, nazi and bald. As well as men take it they could do great.
Substitute short and virgin that arent realy insults when said to woman for some generic anti woman insults and u got their list.

Forgot the touchgrass category of insults. Now sure woman migth hear those aswell but its way more likely for a man to get them.

Not really gonna happen. Men are just genetically better at almost every sport,except long distance swimming. Or do you spot any woman in the top 10 of the best current chess Player?

Holy shit.
Do you *actually* believe that? Asking for a friend.
Gororar t1_ixguqn6 wrote
no. like seriously. its factual. Here why woman are better than men in long distance swimming
Here are the top chess player in the world. You need to go back quiet a lot to find a woman.
​
Here is a video about an all woman Esports Team competing with man.
​
If you want to see a woman be at the top of a sport, you need to go to fiction and watch queens gambit.
Or go to long distance swimming. Like I said. Its the only field in which woman are genetically better suited for than men.
​
edit: people downvote me, because they think facts are sexist lol
daiaomori t1_ixhdesp wrote
But how do you disentangle genetics from all the other co-factors, namely sociological ones?
I don’t disagree about the factual chess high score, but you just pinpointed everything - for all sports - on „genetics“.
Sorry, but that’s completely counter-factual.

You mean thats why his thinking is screwed or why men are better at all sports except long distance swimming?
Im so confused.

Not the person you're talking with, but assuming you're not a troll, women have an advantage in long distance swimming because their bodies are more buoyant than mens' due to higher body fat. This allows them to spend less energy staying afloat. The difference isn't enough to matter in short sprints, but becomes increasingly important the longer the race.
daiaomori t1_ixho17p wrote
Seemingly, you miss the point.
The original argument was "men are genetically better prepared for every sport but long distance swimming" - which is complete nonsense.
The universal statement is (as most universal statements) pretty obviously counter-factual, the empiric basis is completely biased, and routing this "to genetics" is also even more obviously false.
This does not mean that men are not better than women in most sports. But the original argument is simply wrong. This also doesn't change by the fact that women are better at long distance swimming for a biological reason.
As a matter of fact, many men are less able to compete with some women, so we talk statistics, anyway.

you are funny. I love the "lalalalala iam not hearing what you say, because I dont like it lalalalala" mindset.
daiaomori t1_ixla8ww wrote
Maybe you need a hug; you could ask someone like Dani Elle Speegle. Wish you luck, mate :)
And I mean come on you must recognize that your claim doesn’t make sense. „All Sports“. The German table soccer league was all-gender until very recently (no idea why they split it up in the first place but anyway).
What about fencing? Platform diving? Synchronized swimming?
Sure, „all sports“ and „only genetics“. You could even build a solid argument, but you don’t seem to have the basic concepts at hand how arguments work.
Gororar t1_ixlmgi4 wrote
Men are better equiped to perform at the highest level in any of the sports you just named.
"you could even build a solid argument".
I did.
I even gave you studies to look up, why woman are in a dissadvantage compared to men... except long distance swimming :)
Danskheart t1_ixlnfff wrote
Men are better at literally every sport you just mentioned. You're kind of proving yourself wrong.
Gororar t1_ixhmscv wrote
what do you mean with "screwed"?
Biological Men and Biological Female Brains/Bodies just work different.
For example: Men on average have almost double the amount of upper body strenght compared to woman.
I dont understand what exactly is so confusing for you. Iam giving you all the links to look up on the topic to educate yourself. But you just seem a bit angry about it.
