My god what an asenine take.

No, but no woman would ever win with the best from both genders attending.

I don't think you could even qualify for the mens qualifiers in athletics with the world records for women.

You do know there are tons of co-ed sports out there, right? And women win them all the time.

But please, continue to be rude. That will definitely prove something or other.

Discus.

Womens discus weigh 1 kg

Mens weigh 2 kg

Next you'll tell me women are hindered by being forced to use a smaller discus or something.

This is what you said:

Good, name one and ill give you a list of world records in athletics.

Where's the list of world records?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

But you named a sport that wasn't co-ed, so they don't have world records for women throwing a man's discus.

I guess they should have said that. Instead they decided to troll.

I'm giving you some context since you clearly don't know anything about sports.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You can insult me, but that will not change the fact that you said you would give me a list of world records but did not. You've had two opportunities to do so, in fact.
