Man Vs. Woman
A popular
theme in many a movie, sitcom and especially commercials these days, is a woman
defeating a dude in events that men would be assumed to be superior.
The theme;
woman can do anything a man can do.
It is funny
to see the woman surprise the man with her unsuspected superior ability. Men think it is funny. Woman think,
“See
there isn’t anything we can’t do as well or better than a man.”
Women can do
most things as well as any man. Often as
not they can do almost anything better than a man. However, if it involves strength, sorry, I
know this is politically incorrect, but men are stronger.
Not just a
little stronger, but a whole heck of a lot stronger. Men are stronger and faster than women. The science is settled.
Yes, there
are a very few extraordinarily gifted women that can hold their own
athletically with men, not at a professional level, but certainly at an amateur
level.
The late
great Andy Kaufman, a comedian with a strange sense of humor, had a successful
act where he challenged women in his audience to a wrestling match. Andy was not an imposing physical
specimen. He was just an ordinary dad-bod
dude. He egged on and insulted his
audience until finally a woman would accept his challenge.
A woman with
real muscles would take on his challenge, and Andy always won. He not only won; he would humiliate the
challenger. The strongest woman in the
audience was no match for this ordinary man.
Hell, I am
76 years old and I very much doubt there are many women of any age who could
beat me in a fight…not that I would ever fight a woman. OK, there a few like Ronda Rousey that would
kick my sorry butt in seconds, but still…
Currently
the woman’s sports world is in a quandary over a male swimmer turned female who
is winning all the races. This person
was a good swimmer on the men’s team, good not great. As a woman this average collegiate athlete is
dominating the pool.
Young women
who have worked hard to be the best at their sport are angry about losing to
this six-foot+ used to be a man.
The woke
world doesn’t know what to do. If they
protest her participation, then they are admitting there are some things where
dagnabit, men are superior. Then if they
protest, they are also offending the LGBTQ community.
Interestingly
enough, who is the loudest voice protesting this man turned woman competing
against women always been women?
Kaitlin
(formerly Bruce) Jenner. The one-time
world’s greatest athlete when she was a he believes a her used to be a he has
too much of an advantage and should not be allowed to compete with an always
been a she.
Where should
a man now a woman compete? If she can’t
compete against women, what should she do.
Compete with the men? After the
operation and hormone treatment she would probably be disadvantaged.
In my
opinion, if anyone is going to be disadvantaged, I think it should be a her who
used to be a him.
Choice has consequences.
