I was taught that women tended to be better than men at climbing due to the basic physics of their physiology. That pound for pound women have stonger muscles and that women tend to have lower center of gravity due to wider hips (though maybe this was just for pear shaped women?). And that this more than offset their shorter reach and lower strength. I’d be curious if this line of thinking is still fasionable in the sport, I never got very good at the sport, and havn’t climbed in like 16 years. It sounds like from another comment here that at the top tier men might only have the advantage of numbers and the top climbers simply tend to be men because they out number women climbers.
