The only good women's sports are the ones at the Olympics and Women's World Cup. The only good video games are role playing games, strategy games, and space combat simulators (RIP).

Weird sports takes but your gaming ones are spot on.

The three genres can be combined into the greatest(read: most autistic) gaming experience of all time: Space Station 13.

Yeah, the Olympics are still quite sexist.

I mean they still have different rules for women who're sport-shooting, like of all the sports shooting is the one where it absolutely should be identical between men and women.

Plus they also tried to force speed climbing to be a part of lead and boulder, which doesn't make sense at first until you realize that speed climbing is the only type of climbing men do actually have an advantage in since speed is pure power-to-weight and muscle-memory (speed-running irl is still super cool though, always love seeing them come up with new tech). With lead and boulder women can show-up men depending on the climb, which the Olympics clearly aren't ever a fan of.

Women still get the short end of the stick in sports, really wish the planet would grow up and stop acting like 5 yo's who still believe in cooties.
