The reason, such as it is, the men beat women in physical competitions..to some extent, comes down to the duration of the competition. Women have mor endurance than men, period. It;s biochemical. We can cover for our disprity through violence of action (early aggression securing an early lead, for example)........but that pretty much the same as a short guy in basketball covering for his lack of height by better foot and ball work.
I found some articles that do say women have more endurance than men of a similar athletic ability, more fatty deposits to rely on in a very very long distance run.
Although that doesn't seem to translate to actual records in things like, longest distance ever ran, longest distance ever swam.
There are ultra marathons and men seem to complete them in a quicker time than women usually.
The way I can imagine a woman's endurance working for them athletically is if there was something like an ultra ultra marathon. And even then the world record for the longest distance ever ran is set by a man.
Maybe it simply means women would survive longer without food because we have more body fat, while men have more muscle mass. But yeah, marathons, which are 26 miles long, men still win and it's not even close: https://www.runnersworld.com/marathon/th...on-courses
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
