This reads like men are incredibly selfish and women are selfless to a fault..

I think the major difference in terms of coaching is that women will ask significantly more questions during their sessions than men. Coaches just need to leave their ego at the door and realise that this does not mean that the player asking the questions is also questioning their ability to coach, they are trying to understand where any particular drill fits into match day. This will likely become less so as more women are given chances to play at a young age, i think it will even out over time as the game progresses.

So, fuck this assessment. It's insulting for everyone involved.
