Just because you know a few girls who lift more than some guys, that doesn't change the fact that in scientific studies with large samples of the population, men consistently have the capacity to lift more weight, probably because we evolved to hunt, climb, and lift big rocks so our species wouldn't die. There's a reason the world record deadlift is set by a dude, and it's not because of sexism.
That being said, there are absolutely some women that perform better than some men at some feats of athleticism, but that's not the fat part of the bell curve in most sports.
It's probably because of this kind of sexist thinking that women are held back from participating in these types of sports. We should encourage more women to participate in these kinds of sports by conducting campaigns. The stereotype that men are physically better than women is what is holding women back. So please stop spreading these stereotypical ideas and holding women back.
Science isn't "sexist thinking," dipshit. Also, women aren't "held back" from those sports. If anything, creating women's classes for those sports makes women more likely to participate because they don't have to deal with the intimidation of entering a pool of competitors that are by-and-large more physically apt than they are at most feats of speed and strength. Until you can bring me some science to back up all this bullshit you're vomiting, don't fucking bother me with your talk of "stereotypes." Scientific facts are not stereotypes.
See, this is why you believe in magic.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
