Surely, we should have had a world champion darts, snooker, golf player by now.

Im sure if a boy and a girl started practicing at the same time in darts and snooker for the same amounts of time their skills would pretty much develop at the same rate. Golf, not so much as strength comes into the driving process. I guess you are trying to do another men are superior to women claim though.

Why on earth would you think they wouldn't? Several female world champion snooker players started at very early ages and practise relentlessly. But they still don't compete with men despite it not being about physical strength. So what is it?

The three sports you mentioned all centre on spatial awareness. Women's brains are not constructed like that.

Does physical strength also result in superior spatial awareness? I mean, they're not technically connected are they? Yggdrasil seems to think it's purely cultural.

Yggdrasil seems to think it's purely cultural. There's no misogyny because there is a plus side to that negative (ditto for men). Men were designed to go out hunting and throw spears at stuff. Women were designed to stay in the cave and teach the children through communication. Men are goods at throwing, catching, etc, but useless at communicating. Women, vice versa. Nothing to do with physical strength. Lefties always try to deny nature and put it down to some kind of oppression. In this case, bollocks.

My point was that without a balanced study group it's pretty much impossible to say about darts or snooker. You make suppositions and pronounce them as fact. That is not how science works. You may well be right, but to make the claim without supportive evidence shows a wish for it to be so and is letting seemingly held prejudices get in the way of fact.

Where did I make suppositions and pronounce them as fact? You said "they do start at the same age". You have no idea if that is true or if they practice as often or as long. Your premise is utterly flawed and based on prejudice rather than fact. You let your misogyny get in the way of evidence.

Why would they not practise? What on earth are you talking about? Get a-fucking-grip. YOU are the one making assumptions here. YOU. Tone the fucking virtue signalling down before you do yourself a mischief. Ng-yee

So when you said:
were you looking at evidence from a balanced study group or just making suppositions and pronouncing them as fact?

Reann EvansKelly FisherAllison FisherYana ShutYeah but sexism. Girls try to pick up a pool cue and their dad walks in and slaps it out of her hands and makes her go watch Lifetime movies. I don't care how many examples to the contrary you give, it's because you're a sexist.

I'm watching the snooker right now and the commentators are Stephen Hendry, John Parrot, Steve Davis, and its making me wonder why age plays any part in a players ability too. Tennis? Sure, you have to retire, your body can't maintain that level anymore, but why would snooker players start to lose their mojo at the same kinds of ages?
Shouldn't Stephen Hendry be brilliant until he's an old man?

It's because the clitoris is on the outside.
