Depends on the sport (for example, women can't pitch a baseball as fast as men, but most can hit and play infield just as well), but in most cases -- heck no.

Edit: I was curious so I just checked -- since the WNBA's inception in '97, only seven players have ever dunked: Lisa Leslie (she was the first, in 2002), Brittney Griner (she holds the record for the most dunks, with 13), Lisa Leslie, Michelle Snow, Candace Parker, Sylvia Fowles, Liz Cambage, and Jonquel Jones.

Not in a million years can a woman hit a baseball or play infield as well as a major league baseball player can.
Realistically, a woman who is a really, really good basketball shooter could hit well over 80% from the foul line. That, I can easily envision.

Not with a regulation size basketball they can't.
You are correct on your 1st statement.

It’s one of the most arrogantly selfish and unfair ideas I’ve ever seen forced on a society, not to mention the blatant hypocrisy. This is clear to any rational person.

It highlights the insanity of those pushing it and proves that they have no business being in a position of authority over a civilized society.

Beat me to it. Women don't have the arm strength or range of a MLB infielder. They just don't. Doesn't make them inferior human beings (as the woke community believes), just not as good at most athletic events. Biology is a *****, ain't it?

In another sport, Serena Williams is almost assuredly the best woman's tennis player ever. But, in her prime, she would not have been top 200 on the men's tour. In an interview, someone asked her how she'd do against Andy Murray (I think that year they both won Wimbledon) and she said, in effect, it would be no contest, she wouldn't win a game. "It's a totally different game they play" was her statement. Very true.
