17 year-old girl outperforms professional athletes.....well, probably....

  1. I enjoyed watching this clip, she is a perfect example what a girl can achieve when she spends a lot of time in the gym. She has great balance, her gymnastic exercises at the end of the clip are very impressive and then her power. True girlpower. I don't think there are many boys her age, or even men in fact that can do the same feats she performs.

    Boys play games at their computers and girls train their bodies in the gym.

    1. In fact, many guys thrash themselves at the gyms. So, if the general assumption is that guys play computer games, we automatically conclude that Mistresses are naturally more capable than us, by all means. I will further fortify this as My Mistress, a seemingly tiny woman, is provenly stronger than much bigger and very well trained guys. One such guy dared mess with Her, and as you can understand She made him regret it.

  2. Tasslehoff, I agree. She seems to be the star athlete at her gym. i'm sure there are at least a few boys there who wish they could come close to the kind of skill and strength she has in so many disciplines. It would seem that there are more and more gyms where girls like her are excelling.

  3. no probably about it, she clearly does
    now tell me how well would she perform if she were given the funding and resources professional male athletes got?

    1. No doubt of course...just that the title of the clip leads you to think you are actually going to see some professional athletes being out-performed which would have been better....hence the "probably"

    2. I wonder about the intention of the use of the phrase "professional athlete" in the clip's title. I mean, is the phrase intended to mean "male professional athlete" or does it imply any athlete, male or female? Do we still think of a male when we see the word "athlete" and only think of a woman athlete when the word "woman" is used?

      Another thought: It would have been really interesting for the makers of the video to have included a male trying to keep up with this powerhouse girl. Maybe there isn't one because they just couldn't find a boy who could do it. :)

  4. She already shows superior skills in so many disciplines. If she would be given the funding and resources, she would be a perfect example of what you and xaan are telling here for a while now. When women get the same opportunities, men will bite the dust and fall behind.

    I was watching this clip again today when my wife walked in the study. She could immediately tell by my face that I was embarrassed. She watched this clip with me and was impressed by her strength and skills too.
    I'm sure she would love to read the comments on this blog and I think I'll show her some wonderful articles here.

    1. Hi Tasslehoff - Please do introduce your wife and her friend to the blog - the more real life Amazons we can share ideas and views with - the better...

  5. If women had the same level of funding and resources, I agree with Tasslehoff that it will mean the end of males as the standard for athletic achievement. Male superiority os being challenged on all fronts and the walls of the fortress are failing and falling as the Amazons surge through. Make physical power is really the final bastion and it is increasingly precarious.

    Males have historically enjoyed an un-level playing field, but, since males have resisted levelling that field, it looks like women are hard at work levelling it themselves and all the male muscle in the world will not be able to stop them … We live in a time when female cheerleaders are better athletes than the males they are cheering for … common sense says that as soon as the field is level, it will be the males who cheer on the women.

  6. Talking about athletic women outperforming men …

    Three women and 43 men ran the American Ninja Warriors Finals course. 7 men and one woman completed it and she, Jessie Graff who is a stunt woman on the Supergirl TV series, placed 4th out of the 8.

    So the women had a 33% success rate and the males managed just above a 16% success rate, not even half.

    Graff finished 1.5 seconds behind 3rd place and 4.25 seconds ahad of the 5th place finisher.

    As more women enter this competition they are — predictably — gaining on the males in absolute terms and already showing to show proportional superiority.

    1. She looks elegant, strong, confident and has perfect balance. The way she hangs there on the rotating beam and grabs the ropes with her legs. Amazing. She makes it look so easy.

    2. In spite of being a "television personality" rather than a full-time athlete. Good job, womanpower, good job. Constantina
