LOL I don't watch much sports apart from fight sports. And here is is just as evident. Take for example Lucia Rijker:

5'6" junior welterweight Lucia Rijker of Holland, now living in Los Angeles, California, may be the world's most dangerous female fighter on a pound-for-pound basis. She has been referred to as “The Most Dangerous Woman in the World,” and “Queen of Lightning”.

Some could argue she was possibly the best female fighter in the world.

Lucia eventually amassed a 36-0 (25 KO) record as a kickboxer, and won four different world titles. Her only defeat in a kickboxing ring was in a Muay Thai style exhibition match at Sporthalle Zuid in Amsterdam in October 1994, when Lucia fought male Thai boxer Somchai Jaidee, who knocked her out in the second round.

This is another example of the difference between man and woman. Forget the wiegh-ins, if you know anything about combat sports you'll know that it's possible for a fighter to weigh in a pound or two higher at the official weigh-in, but in actuality be smaller than the opponent. Here I thought Jaidee was smaller than Rijker. So this was not a case of physical dominance. He had less than half of her fights and had been defeated. What pisses me off is when world-class boxing cards have women's fights on the undercard, when they are absolutely NOWHERE near the level of world-class male boxing. It is ridiculous and insulting to all the men who have miles more talent than the women who have the privilege(yet another example of female privilege) of being there. Women should have the right to be involved in sports(without any leg-ups of course). But really it does not prove anything about
feminism whatsovever and actually makes things worse. It is a complete myth that it is both genders being liberated from conforming to stereotypes. The more manly women get the more manly they will require their men to get to be able to handle them or whatever. Some women fighters are quite pretty and feminine like Gina Carano:
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x13...on-part-1-of-3 I can't picture many men not finding her attractive. I personally do not mind aggressiveness or toughness in attractive women, and I also like passive women, but most women do not like unaggressive/passive men. This is not social conditioning it is simply normal. Feminists would deny this and say some bullshit like 'aggressiveness is a good trait to have and is["should be"] desirable for BOTH genders', how convenient. Reality destroys this logic. It is rare for a woman to choose a man less aggressive than her, but very common for a woman to choose a man more aggressive than her.
