Bruce Jenner’s 1976 time in the 400 meters — as part of the 10-event decathlon — is still faster than the women’s individual world record for 400 meters specialists.
And don't get me wrong: there are women who are faster, stronger, smarter, tougher than me, and I'm an athletic male. But anyone who's done BJJ knows they can get their butt kicked by a more technically proficient woman. And there are women with 500+ lb deadlifts, great endurance athletes, etc.
Fact of the matter stands: in competition, a male will always have a huge advantage. It's not fair to women competitors.

Yeah, true.

Now that Bruce is no longer Bruce, methinks he should claim the women’s record, based on his time in 1976.
