Sex segregation in sport is designed to benefit women, not men. Men don’t need men-only sporting competitions. In sports involving strength, endurance and speed, the best woman will never outperform the best man. The mens’ 100 metres was run in 10.8 seconds in 1891 in Paris by Luther Cary. This dropped to 10 seconds in 1967, a time achieved by various athletes. Currently, the record is 9.58 seconds and is held by Usain Bolt (2009). One hundred and thirty nine men have run the 100 metres in under 10 seconds. In contrast, the women’s 100 metres was run in 13.6 seconds by Marie Mejzlíková in Prague in 1922. The current record is 10.49 seconds, held by Florence Griffith-Joyner, and was set in 1988 in Indianapolis. This time was achieved by men between 1912 and 1921. Perhaps the difference between men and women in the 100 metres is explained by its being a sprint, so let’s look at records over a longer distance. Maxie Long ran the 400 metres in New York in 1900 in 47.8 seconds. The current record is held by Wayded van Niekerk (2016, Rio de Janeiro) and stands at 43.03 seconds. The current 400 metres record for women was set by Marita Koch in Canberra in 1985 and took her 47.6 seconds. This time was achieved by men in 1924. Still too much of a sprint you say? Very well, let’s look at the 5,000 metres. The first record we have of this event was set by George Touquet-Saunis in 1897 in Paris and it took him 16 minutes and 34 seconds to cover the distance. The current record of 12 minutes and 37 seconds is held by Kenenisa Bekele and was in Hengelo in 2004. The current women’s record is 14 minutes and 11 seconds, set by Tiranes Dibaba in 2000 in Oslo. This time was achieved by men between 1932 and 1939. It would be tedious to go through all the various sporting categories. Suffice it to say that much the same differences can be found in the field events of long and high jump, pole vault, shot putt and discus as are found in track events.

There is a reason for this consistent difference between the sporting performances of men and women, and the reason is not hard to find. In the aggregate, men are stronger than women, are heavier, taller, have a greater lung capacity, have greater upper-body strength, and have significantly greater skeletal muscle mass. Perhaps even more significantly, men’s muscle fibres have a larger cross-section. Men run faster than women; the fastest woman in the world wouldn’t meet the men’s qualifying standard for the Olympics. Men can lift heavier weights than women, and throw the javelin, discus and shot put further than women. All this is blindingly obvious, unless, of course, you’re wilfully blind.

One can argue about the merits of having sporting events that are exclusive to women. In some cases, where the aggregate physical differences between men and women are obvious
