Thanks. I thought I was about to have to construct the resource argument again.

And yes. It is STILL irrefutable.

I'll take it one further.

You give me 100 18 year old men who are 30 pounds overweight and 100 18 year old women who played sports all through high school.

At the end of 13 weeks of Infantry OSUT training, I will guarantee to that AT LEAST 45 of the top 50 performers are from my 100 men. I wouldn't be stunned if all 50 were.

I went to OSUT with a guy so fat we called him Grimace cause he showed up on purple.

At the end of 13 weeks. He was doing 80+ push ups and running sub 14 for two miles and kicked arse on the 18 mile road march. He's have killed 99.9% of all the females I worked with in 23 years.

The gap between typical men and women is enormous.
