Watching that feels like a fair minded approach to the topic and how it can contribute to the conversation. The challenges in an Internet forum for this topic is that some will give these kinds of thoughts justice, some will butcher them into something well intentioned but appearing sexist, and some will say blatantly sexist things like “women can’t see angles like men can.”

Angels are all around us.
A lot of men can't handle the notion that there are women out there who can beat them at pool. This is especially true for some men who have played pool all their life and hate the idea of some 21 year old Chinese girl kicking their butt. :thumbup:
I think we have had almost as many "why can't women play better pool" threads as "custom cues not worth it" "LD shafts are a gimmick" and "what is best tip" threads LOL
The only answer is "no-one knows". I think it's because they don't put in the time or practice like men do. And I have one that may be a bit unusual but from watching women play it may explain things a bit, for some of them, the boobs get in the way of a good stance. I see many of them stand sideways too much.
In my local room, it's 12-18 yr old Chinese girls, along with my son LOL

Well, I went to the trouble of finding and listing some of the past threads on men vs. women in pool, so members could read some of the previous comments, and now .............. poof, gone.
I agree with ChrisinNC's comment in post #6.
I love this post. You say a lot!!
Jordan Peterson says that if you want to speak the truth as you see it about any matter of substance, you have to be willing to potentially offend some people. I couldn't agree more. I'm not advocating offending someone. I'm advocating speaking the truth as one sees it.
Great post,
