Man, that's bullshit. We have some stellar dudes playing rugby with us, but none of them would ever get banned.
I'm definitely not one of them, mostly because I can't run for shit because of my smoking habit, but I think that the great players have as much right to participate as I do.
Definitely agree that women will never be as good as men at sports. The best (99th percentile, no kidding) female athletes I have ever seen are usually on par with average to above-average male athletes. Look at shot-put, for example. Women can throw it roughly as far as men, but they are only throwing half the weight.
I think that there was even a case where an excellent female Thai boxer was made to do (and failed) testing for gender, as she was some sort of hermaphrodite.
