I thought about Tennis, you can find super stars in both sex.

The female super stars would not make the male top 200.

Serena Williams vs. Rafael Nadal in a grunting contest...Williams dominates.

Yup, this has even been discussed here in this thread before.

Maybe we just stop this madness now and admit that women have no chance winning against men. Physique of a man is far superior afterall. Even in sports like car racing or horse racing...

Women are better at a lot of things than men. It's just men tend to be more competitive in a lot of regards.

There aren't really any competitive caregiver events Wink

Men would still win. As I said, men are a lot more competitive. They'd try to optimize and maximize the sport. Personally, I hate game-shows because of this. People gaming the system rather than just having fun. (Honestly, Japanese Game Shows are best because of this -- watch 24 hour endurance tag, I bet you WILL laugh).

If I play, I play to win. Even if I'm just playing for fun and don't care about the result I try to win. I just won't care if I lose then.

You're a male. I think biologically, that's what we're programmed to do. Win at all cost. If we're better than the man beside us, we're a better mating partner, right?

Yes, I was reaffirming your statement.

@bryant.coleman  Same thing for chess players. Also if more men play chess it's even more likely they're simply better. People enjoy doing things they're good at more than things they suck at and tend to do it more because of that.

I was just posting the opinion of the researcher. That was his justification for the lack of gender equality in chess. I don't agree with him fully in any sense. IMO, the only woman GM who is capable of competing against the male GMs is Judit Polgár. She has defeated Viswanathan Anand, Magnus Carlsen, Anatoli Karpov, Ruslan Ponomariov, Garry Kasparov, Alexander Khalifman, Boris Spassky, Vasily Smyslov, Veselin Topalov, and Rustam Kasimdzhanov.  

Yes we're talking in general here. The above does show the difference in chess is far lower than in more physical sports such as tennis.

Chess ..! I don't know what the research says but I think if a average Male and Female want to compete they should play Chess and see who's bad and who's worst at it..!

Now that I think of it, women are really good in volleyball. And even better in beach volley. I've never seen a profesional women team competing with a men's one to be honest but women's volleyball league seems just as profesional as the men's one (at least to me).

Then why do both the male and women play in different competitions and don't face each other? It's not like there is physical contact (oh the horror!).

That is truth about people! Also I last time when I checked I did not see many women with grandmaster chess title. It maybe so that women play little chess but I don't think that is the main reason.
