     @BILLSan345 @ArtistBristol Extreme sports are very masculine by nature, such silliness called "high marking" by sociologist at one time. Boys just want to see who pee the highest, run the fastest, jump the farthest. And derivative sports that are extreme by nature tend to favor genetic freaks and drug-takers, but the drugs work best on those genetically predisposed to make most use of them. It is the female team sports that are part of growing up and socializing that matter. The old school feminists who wanted to actually change the socialization of girls and boys, wanted us to develop more cooperative games, where strategies to cooperate mattered. Supposedly anthropologist have evidence for these kinds of games in other cultures, but I know all of the last 100 years of anthropology is now called into question.

     @ArtistBristol There couldn't be a clearer argument than she makes against the non-binary category being added to the two sex categories in marathons.
