In terms of stamina and the ability to endurance hunt? It’s true. Peak female runners and peak male runners tend to average out in the marathon, the records being about 10 minutes apart. For bursts of speed needed to play Soccer and other sport? Men take the win easily. Also, these are not peak female athletes, they are just a “pro” tram from Australia.

It must really hurt that reality doesn’t agree with you.

I’m not the one downvoting you

Oh, that was me. I think they're being unnecessarily unfriendly in an otherwise reasonable discussion. Bad vibe.
