I was watching pro golf coverage on the news and it seems so odd that men and women compete separately - same goes with pro bowling. Just seems weird to me that a game of skill is gendered when you can’t even raise an argument that someone might have an advantage because of what’s between their legs.

    Shooting sports in the Olympics had one all-gender competition until a woman won. Mysteriously, she was prevented from defending her title because it became a “men’s” competition the next time round. (I want to say they didn’t even have a women’s event in the next Olympics, but I could be misremembering.)
