Those are SIMPLY unfair comparisons. Yes, the women play basketball with a SLIGHTLY smaller ball, but their hands are smaller - that can't be held against them. They play a very exciting brand of professional and amateur basketball.
......And of course, women can't QUITE run a 100-yard dash as fast as men can. On average women are slightly shorter so can take SLIGHTLY shorter strides. And women are anatomically designed with larger pelvises for childbirth.
............Incidentally, women tend to live 5 to 7 years longer than men. So they are winning that race.
............Incidentally, shorter men tend to live longer than taller men on average. Per scientific studies.
