The 4 minute mile - no difference between men and women in sport.

Sorry if this has already been posted but I notice that a female athlete has been really trying to become the first woman to achieve the 4 minute mile.
She had pacemakers, special clothes, special shoes, lots of training and support. Sadly she didn’t manage it.
Back when it was first done by a man he walked to the stadium as a warm up and had a fried breakfast on the way.

But there is no difference between men and women in sport.

Please inform your partner that Lia Thomas was a mediocre, lowly rated mens swimmer, but magically galloped up the rankings to be in the top ten women after changing his name and growing his hair. He was also getting close to breaking Katie Ledecky's record.

I know, I know. We just don't talk about this issue any more; we're not going to agree and we don't want to fall out over it.
TBF because we haven't talked about sport for a while, he might have changed his mind, with more and more evidence coming out, and I just don't know. But he's fully TWAW in things like calling men she if they want you to.
