Good discussion to have

Did you explain that women will never grow the muscle mass that a man could - we're physilogically different?
And therefore, no woman would ever match someone like Lance without some kind of chemical assistance

I think its really important for kids to know and understand this difference, because otherwise they can grow up assuming that women aren't as "good"

But if they understand the physiological differences, then they will understand why we have women's bike races, women's marathons/sprints etc

But the coorporate favouitism toward male sport is, I agree, shocking and unjustifiable. Half of the planet is female - I'm sure their (the corporations) advertising would be just as watched/supported inside womens sports as they would inside mens
