> Even having different boxing (the sport) categories for men and women could be construed as "sexism". I disagree that fits under prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination. But of course it can be overly broad if you apply it overly broadly.

How is it not stereotyping to assume that women are weaker than men?

  Because sexual dimorphism is real, but it isn't as simple to apply that to things that can be affected by society and culture.

    I'm glad you agree that sexual dimorphism is real.

      Of course, it doesn't explain everything about sexism though. You're basically making an appeal to nature fallacy about the roles of women in media.
