It seems to be a general consensus that women tend to learn to shoot better than men, for both cultural reasons and fine motor-skills issues.
Leads me to ask: is there any organized shooting discipline in which women consistently score higher than men? Just looking for examples to cite if anyone accuses us of trying to "subverty inclusivity for your reactionary goals."
I'm sure there are individual times when women have placed high in competitions, but is there any general trend for, say, women biathlon shooters getting higher scores than males, or female clay shooters tending to break more birds than their male counterparts at national competitions?
I realize the issue is complicated by the fact that far more men than women are involved in many shooting sports, giving males a larger pool of talent to draw upon. Not unlike how the Army sometimes manages to beat the Marine Corps rifle team, due largely to the fact that the Army is ten times the size of the Corps.
If anyone has any concrete examples that can be verified by posted scores on line, those would be great to keep handy.
