      Women’s routines tend to be more artistic and dance-like, sometimes telling a story, whereas a priority for men’s routines is to display strength. (The women’s score also includes a spot for artistry on the balance beam.)

      The men’s and women’s floor exercises are fundamentally similar, but the artistic performance aspect of the women’s discipline is missing from the men’s.

      Not only that, but women’s floor routines tend to include dance moves (often to music) in order to showcase their artistry, while men’s floor routines are typically about showcasing strength.

      Men’s events typically emphasize upper body strength and powerful acrobatics, while women’s events highlight balance, grace, and artistic expression.

      Women’s gymnastics: artistry > strength

      Men’s gymnastics: artistry < strength

      Both still require a lot of artistry and strength respectively. They just have different priorities.

      Also, thank you for ignoring 99% of my comment and nitpicking two lines. You argue like a politician.

        I ignore the irrelevant bullshit because I think it would lower my IQ to stoop to the level of addressing it.

        Both still require a lot of artistry and strength respectively.

        That’s my point.
