Yes, M/F reproduction is different, but for any given trait, you will find overlapping distributions, usually with greater male variability. If you want to make (for example) a special forces squad, you will be able to find some women right at the edge of the distinction.

yes but those under 15 boys would thrash 99.9% of men at soccer! The elite sporting women are at the 99.9th percentile of the male ability distribution, which is pretty much what overlapping distributions says.

No, I don't think that's accurate at all - u15 boys are at a huge disadvantage against men. You routinely hear stories about how elite college women's teams will scrimmage with pickup teams of guys from the same college (and get thrashed) in various sports.
