I'm hoping someone on this part of Mumsnet can point me at a sport reference/ website that I just can not find.

In light of the Penn swimmer I was looking for a link I remember seeing maybe a year ago that I'm pretty sure I must have found on here. I wasn't peaked at the time and didn't save it much to my chagrin.

It was a series of graphics that showed top 10 US boys team results for a series of athletics events and top 10 Olympic (I think) female results. Each graphic then shuffled the results and the overwhelming majority of them showed all the boys results as higher than the professional women's results.

Please tell me someone has come across this and/or has any memory of seeing this! I'm sure I didn't imagine it. I can't find it anywhere but with friends starting to question TWAW (especially with regards to sport) I would love to have this to show them!

Thanks!

Given this particular attack is on women's swimming, here is the 2020 Olympic mixed relay, where the difference between male and female athletes couldn't be any more apparent.

I remember watching that and wondering how anyone could fail to see the massive difference in body shape.

Just watched that mixed relay again - brilliant.
Yes, the difference between the men and the women is so marked - the shoulders on the men! And I would assume that the women swimmers themselves would look quite big and muscular next to a ‘normal’ non athletic small woman like myself. Next to one of the male swimmers I’d look like a tiny hobbit.
