In doing so, you denigrate women by painting them as victims of their hormones, and are only one step removed from the days when women were considered too fragile to compete in events such as the marathon.


Painting of the gender as victims is not my intention. I'll try chose my words differently next time...

Do you mean the published evidence is weak at best? How many woman have you talked to about this? The women I've talked to and listened to on podcasts disagree...

I think discussing a possible physiological scenario for race day time guessing games like this is as relevant as the other variables being discussed like the weather, rabbits, and competition. You also haven't given a guess for Gwen. Play the game with us Andrew Wink
