I'd argue that the above questions aren't well formed. Gender equality is such a sticky issue that it's really important to use precise language. For the first question, it might be fair to say that the average amount men can lift is more than the average amount women can lift. However it's really important to realize that given 2 individuals of different genders, there's no reason to make any assumptions about which one is able to lift more weight. You could just assume, and if you had to assume, you'd be most accurate by assuming the man could lift more than the woman, but why assume? Be very careful when taking a statement that's accurate wrt to populations and applying it to 2 individuals in the population.
