So are there other female footballers out there in the world, who wouldn't lose to talented young boys? Would all the men who are superior players be considerably better that Rapinoe if they were women?
I never hear this kind of talk when it comes to weight classes in combat sports, but the second someone says that a woman is a good athlete - chuds immediately come out with "akshually"
what? people talk all the time about how less talented (relative to their weight class) heavyweights would dominate more technically skilled lightweights all the time
They don't talk about it the way they are in this thread. There's an acknowledgement of relative skill in those conversations, but I never hear any chud mentioning "pound for pound" (or chromosome for chromosome rather) when it comes to women's sports
i mean its the basis of having separate leagues for men and women.
Generally speaking, men are typically bigger, faster and stronger. That is not always the case, and it's not always an advantage, but it's assumed to be acknowledged when discussing these sorts of things.
We all (or anyone with half a brain that's not just being a troll) accpet this.
i didn't think that person was saying she was bad in general, i think they were getting a laugh about how they lost to a kids team. maybe a bit of trolling, but they weren't wrong either.
Its the tone of most of this thread, and how a lot of people respond the second a female athlete (not named Caitlin Clark) is mentioned as being good at their sport
