obviously what I quoted is an exhaustive list! but yes, figureheads do represent the game they play to a large extent

I beg to differ regarding the "large extent", but so it goes.

The women's tournament has been fun, I've only watched highlights but still enjoyable. But it is technically and physically nowhere near the men's game. Not even in a similar stratosphere.

Problem with this attitude is, consciously or unconsciously, you're not comparing like with like. Lot of blokes are so insecure about the women's game that the mantra in the back of their heads is "not as good as the men" when it's not relevant. The international games are superlative - even if women are never going to be faster and stronger.
