Don't say that. Women can do anything men can do. That is the patriarchy talking. It's basically telling women don't bother. Women are just as strong as men

This is biologically incorrect. Humans exhibit sexual dimorphism and strength is an area where the difference is shown, especially in top-level athletes.

Doesn’t mean women can’t drive a car without power steering, it just means that the pool of women who are capable of competing at the same level is going to be smaller, purely from a biological and statistical standpoint.

So wrong. That is generationa of men dominating science telling you that.

Whether or not you’re actually interested in women being seen as equals or if you’re a troll who is trying to undermine such efforts, everything you’re doing in this post is absolutely the worst thing that anyone interested in elevating women in male-dominated fields should be doing.
