Females on average, only have 52% of males upper body strength, and about 66% of the lower body strength of a male. I can vouch for this having had a near lifetime of experience in weight training and also as an instructor. Women have no where near the density or muscle mass of a male due to the much lower levels of testosterone in the female physical make up. Men are the opposite, high levels of testosterone and low levels of estrogen. Both sexes have each others hormones but in much different ratios. This is why men in general are larger than women. Sure there are some very strong women but they are the exception rather than the rule. No elite woman can compete with elite male athletes, just as the average woman cannot compete with the average man. The world is going crazy.
I agree, the two genders will never be equal. The fact that we were made to be that way will always be ignored by those who choose to resist nature. Women are also psychologically different in that they tend to think and to act on their emotions, hence the motherhood ability that is a natural part of the female makeup too often ignored by the selfish among them.
In a general sense, women do not make good police officers or front line troops and should never be placed into those roles.
“No elite woman can compete with elite male athletes, just as the average woman cannot compete with the average man. ”
Never say never applies, because under certain circumstances a woman can win against all genders.
Only two weeks ago, a 24 year old German doctor in under 11 days won a 4000 km bicycle race that ran from the western shore of the Black Sea in Bulgaria to the eastern shore of the Atlantic in Brittany, France.
Part of the reason is there was a great deal of climbing through the Austrian, Swiss and French alps. Women, being lighter and with a smaller profile against the wind, have an easier time climbing. But because of their lower weight, their downhill speed is less. And their weaker muscles work against them in the flats. But this years winner managed to outlast two men that were ahead of her due to unlucky injuries, and then got super fortunate in staying ahead of the bad weather. Part of the reason she was ahead of the weather was that she slept less than all other riders. Simply an amazing outcome.

I am sure everyone here applauds her feat. And we realize that those trans-gender cheaters, if their intrusions are allowed to continue, will discourage more women from even trying.
And here is the really cool addition to Fiona’s story. The leader in the race who had to scratch because of injury was her training buddy!
One more thing you guys should know about the TCR bicycle event. It is a no support race. Each rider must travel alone and make due along the way for food, shelter, tools and repairs.
Kudos to her Pascal. The lady is a one off freak, one woman in a million would be my guess
It could be that women are better often times at long distance endurance sports.Long distance swimming comes to mind.
Still, this was the 7th running (started in 2013) and I do not recall any woman having finished in the top ten before, let alone won.
I think her having trained alongside a previous winner and learning some of his tricks played a roll here too. His story was he’d been injured shortly before the race and thought it would heal. I forget what happened to the next leading man who scratched before Fiona got to Switzerland.
Yes, woman who can endure unusually long childbirths may have extra abilities to endure with little sleep.
From your summary of things it looks like she got lucky with some benefits falling her way because of circumstances outside her immediate control. That’s not a feature of gender but irrespective of that she must be an outstanding athlete.
I can tell you she is also smart. There were 4 checkpoints every rider had to show up at. Everyone has a GPS tracker on them, so everyone, including spectators like me, can watch the dots move across Europe in real time. When she got to Ck pt 4 in the French Alps she considered taking a room and sleeping. But because most of the remaining trip was across flat land she declined and rode on. Although she wound up finishing 10 hours ahead of #2, you can bet she was thinking “better safe than sorry.” The hare lost to the tortoise because he slept.
And also sniping the enemy – there were a number of Russian women honored in that role by the Soviets against the Germans during WW2. Maybe, some of them are better shooters as well?
Here is where you can see Fiona’s stats https://trackleaders.com/transconrace19i.php?name=Fiona_Kolbinger
Her moving time was: 7:21:54 (dy:Hr:Mn)
Her stop time was: 2:04:36
Number 2’s stats shows he only rested 2 hours longer, but he had routing and mechanical trouble so took 8 extra hours in motion.
But here, in number 3’s stats, tells a tale. https://trackleaders.com/transconrace19i.php?name=Job_Hendrickx
His moving time was: 7:09:26 (that’s 12+ hours faster)
But his stop time was: 3:06:11 — more than a day more, about 50% more rest.
Job hare meet Fiona tortoise. LOL
As a retired Police Officer I can tell you that women are not completely suitable for Police work as they simply cannot do all parts of the job. A very basic example (there are plenty of others) would be you, would not send an 8 stone police woman on a raid on gang headquarters as it just puts other officers under pressure. I was involved in the policing of the protests during the 1981 Springbok rugby tour of New Zealand. The weakest point in the skirmish lines was where a Police woman was placed. I know as being a supervisor I was immediately behind the line. I also found that in tense situations the policewomen tended to inflame the situation. I am not a sexist, I am telling it like it is. Nursing is a parallel occupation and females are better at it that me due to their natural nurturing instinct. The event Pascal is referring to is an outlier. I was an elite player in a racket sport and played a couple of top women in friendlies, and had no problem beating them and was not extended.
Alan, part of my ‘responsibilities’ as an ‘experienced’ cop was to take the odd probationary constable under my wing, and to induct them into what street life was all about.
Attending the local ‘pub brawl’ soon sorted out those who were going to make it as police officers and those who were not – and some of them were young males. A bad suicide – like a few weeks old during the height of an Australian summer sorted a few others out, etc, etc.
I lay the blame for such failures with the police force and their recruiting methods – for instance; no one is offered the reality of what policing really entails or being taken down on the streets by those who simply do not wish to be arrested for whatever.
Believe it or not, that comes as a shock to the ill informed young’uns of today. But, I most certainly agree that women do not make – and there were a few exceptions that I was proud to work with – good police officers.
I think it’s society as a whole,we in the west have had it too easy for too long.Most kids coming up have never had to deal with any stress.That’s why we see videos of teenagers going into complete meltdown if their cell phones quit working.
Video from last year of a female officer that got very lucky-

If his gun hadn’t jammed she most likely wouldn’t be alive today.
In their affirmative action, equal opportunity requirements – United Nations mandated – the police hierarchy continue to allow two female officers out on the beat, or on mobile patrol, even though I could relate to you the many instances – and just like the link you have included – that placing two females together or as alpha units in Highway Patrol vehicles, does not make for an effective team able to deal with the unknown that is every active police officers shift.
No two shifts as an officer are the same, and it was that unpredictability of what to expect, and that I once enjoyed, that some others simply could not handle. In short, an active officer in General Duties patrolling has to be alert for the entire shift – many simply cannot appreciate that simple individual safety aspect and let their guard down when it becomes most needed.
Females because of their lack of aggression, generally do not fully appreciate that aspect of policing when dealing with ‘members of the public’.
Society today contains many ‘victims’ and all by design, a ‘status’ that has been used to undermine what was once the most stable civilization on the planet – the West – all of the pillars of our civilization have been under constant attack for well over 100 years by the Marxists, so that those who can see this, can now stand back and watch the results of that deliberate undermining.
The female officer in that link let her guard down and got too close and side onto that person sitting in the vehicle who could have killed her. The golden rule on vehicle stops is to stand to the side of the vehicle and behind the driver, which is a basic and simple safety precaution. I hope that officer learned her lesson!
In the US we have recently had an epidemic of officers being basically executed,right out of the clear blue,with no warning.That’s how little respect there is for the rule of law in some neighborhoods.
I tell people constantly to study places like Sierra Leone and Somalia,places where the rule of law doesn’t exist and then realize that can and will happen here if things continue on their current trajectory.
And you would be offering good advice.
