Is there a single sport or exercise that women are genuinely better than men at, all else equal?

Don't they have superior flexibility and power/weight ratio? I would assume perhaps something like rock climbing/bouldering a woman might beat an equally trained man.

Im assuming ballet since theyre nimbler and less weighty disposition lends itself to the grace
>>
>>77059442
Yeah, immediately after posting I thought maybe ice skating too, similar thing. But it's kind of subjective, isn't it
>>
>>77059437
No.
Only thing women can do better then men is be a mother.
>>
>>77059437
No because they don't have the same competitive drive to succeed even if they had the ability to compete.

marathon swimming

ultradistance running, ultradistance swimming
can make a strong argument that they are just as good if not better at shooting
if you wanted to argue you could make the claim that any sport where men are only marginally better is up in the air because women are generally discouraged from competing depending on the country

For both ballet and figure skating the men mog the women. Male ballet dancers are needed for their strength to lift and move the women around. Male figure skaters are also more athletic so can do more dramatic moves etc.
Don't think there's a single sport where women are superior to men.

On all the ultra distance events men are better by days. It’s been posted here a bunch, but people still bring this up for some reason. Same with shooting - not even close. Men have vastly superior reaction times, visual acuity, fine motor skills, hand/eye coordination, stability, and this has always translated into vastly better real world performance in civilian and military applications. I think people bring this one up because it feels like physicality is less of a factor and they feel like you have to give SOMETHING to the foids. But really you can’t unfortunately.

Not really, not even things like dancing or gymnastics. Men are better chefs and fashion designers too

Nobody watches ballet for the men, its an entire sport designed around women and you even outlined how in your response, the men are just extensions to emphasise the female grace whilst in the air.
Its high society cheerleading, yes the jocks are tossing the girls up but no one watches cheerleading to look at the dude throwing girls up

So i think my answer stands, in regards to doing ballet and all it entails, the chicks are the centrepiece and are "better than" the men
>>
>>77059437
>superior flexibility
On average, maybe, but sports aren't about averages, they select for the best
>power/weight ratio
Lolno
>perhaps something like rock climbing/bouldering
Good call and yes the gap between men & women is closer here, but still no
Despite light weight being obviously a massive advantage, women aren't strong enough
In competitions the routes for men and women are different, the men's are harder
The best female climber janja garbret is way, way better than all the other women, but she's not as good as the top men

This guy is right
Women can be pretty good long distance swimmers cuz they have higher body fat %. Makes them float better, and they re lighter.
>>
>>77059909
>something like rock climbing/bouldering
lol then don't they compete with men?
>cause it's male bouldering/rock climbing
no it isn't - it's open bot, male is actually open for all things: male femal it - doesn;t matter
there's category that precludes men from competing and it's whaman rock cloombing
and on real rock whaman have no chance whatsoever

that's a myth, u can't support this claim
>but once whamana swam sth no man has ever swam
and? it doesn't prove anything
>>77059562
>Bodybuilding
no bot, that's same as having a dick and balls lol - it's a property and only that
>>
>>77059612
>Men are better chefs and fashion designers too
Yes but those men are gay so they don't count
