On a friendly level, in my experience- softball, bowling, cycling, swimming, running, soccer, golf, tennis, volleyball, martial arts, American football

In competition, women dominate long distance swimming. I know a few high school girls who have done well in wrestling and American football.

Do you mean men competing against women?

Or do you mean men and women competing together on the same team?

Men and women compete side by side in:
• Curling
• Equestrian events
• Sailing
• Archery
• Horse shoes
• Bowling
• Billiards
• Drag Racing
• Auto racing

To name a few.

There is a show in South Korea called Society Game. It is like Survivor but actually good.

It is subbed here. http://bxrme.tumblr.com/post/152186981508/society-game-subbed

It is fantastic if you like reality TV.

But getting back to the male female thing. In one of the first challenges a female does a awesome thing. Something no male was smart enough to do or had the dexterity to pull off.

MJ is amazing.

And seriously. Watch The Genius. http://bxrme.tumblr.com/tagged/the-genius It is fucking amazing.

Chess*

(*However chess is semi-segregated. There are titles and competitions that are restricted to women-only, but there are no men-only titles or events. IE: current world champion, Magnus Carlsen, couldn’t compete for the women’s world championship, but current women’s champion, Hou Yifan, could compete for the world championship held by Carlsen.)

That particular table in @Call_Me_Jay‘s link is a wimpy table.

Here you go, Dutchess

“Top of the line home, commercial grade table. This is your Tornado table if you are in a commercial or heavy use setting. This is the table type that dominates the US National Tour Scene. If you want to take your skills on tour, this is the ideal table for you! It’s the same beefy construction as used on the commercial coin operated games, minus the coin mech and a few tweaks inside the cabinet”

Shooting, Chess, horse riding, acrobatics

Dutchess_III's avatar

How do you figure acrobatics @mhd14? Shooting, chess and horse riding don’t require a lot of strength. Acrobatics does.

mhd14's avatar

@Dutchess_III Acrobatics require more flexibility and less weight, females are most suitable for this….
and Women have more strength then men.

Darth_Algar's avatar

Nevertheless, you don’t generally see women competing against men in gymnastics.

mhd14's avatar

never we do see women competing with men in BOXING !!

Darth_Algar's avatar

No, and no one suggested we do.

Dutchess_III's avatar

Women don’t have more strength than men. That’s why you don’t see them competing with men in BOXING!!!

Both do gymnastics, but in different areas. Never against each other.
