Are women superior to men?

Changes from Version 11 to Version 12

On the point: Better swimmers biologically

Australian Susie Maroney swam a record 197 km (122 miles) from Mexico to Cuba, covering the longest distance ever swum without flippers in open sea. She completed the marathon swim in 38 hours and 33 minutes, arriving in Cuba on June 1, 1998.[[wiki-answers]] Men are not biologically equipped to snatch her title.

Woman have a higher percentage of fat(fat floats) as well as a lower percentage of bone mass and muscle.(muscle and bone weigh you down) therefore it is easier for women to float. Distribution of fat towards the periphery in women allows their/our legs to float higher, making them streamlined.
The potential hydrodynamic benefits enjoyed by women become noteworthy in longer distances where swimming economy and body insulation(women have to spend less energy to swim at a higher velocity) become more important. The first woman to swim the english channel, swam at a speed that was 35% greater than the fastest (male) swimmer before her.- [[Essentials of exercise physiology By William D. McArdle, Frank I. Katch, Victor L. Katch page 285 'Effects on buoyancy':men vs women']]

Counter:
Why heavy? even a heavy 'man' would lose? how typical of men to suggest 'cheating' to win. And the fat in women makes us more buoyant so that's an absurd suggestion.

other than that men cannot outperform women as women and men swim separately in separate swim competitions/championships.

Not for shorter distances. If this were true then the list of world records found here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_world_records_in_swimming

would not consistently show men outperforming women at every distance.

Oh yeah? Michael Phelps broke 8 world records.Beat that.

Since most women weigh less than most men, they swim faster. Try having a race between a heavy woman and Michael Phelps, then decide.

See I dont even have to read your arguments to know that you are just flat out WRONG. If women are such damn good swimmers why arent they competing with men in swimming events? Why do they need their own division? And when in their own division how come their times in identical events are slower than that of men?

Wow this argument is not even founded on logic, but then again the entire premise that women are better than men isnt founded on logic either so i cant expect the points under it to be. be$1  
This argument might just prove how much women will lie to conclude to themselves they they're right.  
Swimming World record$1 
Women: Me$1 
50m freestyle 23.73 20.9$1 
100m freestyle 52.07 46.9$1 
400m freestyle 3:59.15 3:40.0$1 
1500m freestyle 15:42.54 14:34.3$1 
200m breaststroke 2:20.12 2:07.3$1 
100m butterfly 56.06 49.8$1 
Etc.. Faster for longer= better

Yes, because... Better swimmers biologically
