Read the article, and try not to be such a sexist.

A part from the article, he's right. They should workout, of course! But what he said is a fact

I disagree. Female bodies can do strenuous exercise, too. The composition is not that different. Exercise needs to be adapted to the person.

Dude they literally have less efficient oxygen carrying bloodstreams, political correctness doesn't change biology https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10084493

The paper is from 1999 and a journal with an IF of 6. O2-uptake also doesn't determine fitness or the ability to do strenuous exercises.

One lesson I've learned is to never argue with a woman.

Well, never argue with a biologist and medical student. ;-) Women can really do strenuous exercises, too. Just different levels/types.

Be safe, listen to your body, and yes, you have the right to stop. Eg don't start w/the weights if it's your 1st body pump class etc.

Just walk during break time and at home for 1-2 hours a day. Get a stand up desk at work. You don't need to over exert & injure.
