I think serious lifters tend to be more rightwing because it’s all about personal agency: You want to achieve a certain physical goal, the only path is individual effort. It takes the responsibility from vague unfalsifiable systemic factors and places it squarely in your own lap.

@cremieuxrecueil Lower Neuromuscular efficiency. Women are on average less able to voluntarily recruit all of their muscle fibers/motor units to complete a lift/task compared to men. So they can do less with the same muscle mass. This would also explain why they have lower vertical jumps.
