I am genuinely convinced the only reason we don’t have coed sports is because million dollar athlete men couldn’t handle being dunked on by a woman

Watch some Olympic events next time it's on. Men have a clear advantage, scoring significantly higher. It's necessary to separate men and women into different categories or women wouldn't bother participating.
