I can see this getting me into trouble very easily for jumping in here but here goes anyway.

We are used to seeing the men race on TV and develop a visual image of what it should look like as the they go through the obstacles. The fact that men and women are built differently has a bearing on riding styles. I don't believe that women struggle as much per se as the difference in riding styles depict. When I took Tigger to the DM WSMX and saw just how good the female instructors teaching the class were on the track, I enrolled for it too. Many of the girls in our class that day could ride circles most of the guys, myself included. None of the other guys were slouches either.

If we were used to watching women race on TV and the occasional men's race came on, it would probably look the same as you describe the opposite. Reminds me of dancing. When I see a woman dance they look so graceful, the movement is flowing and looks effortless. When I try to dance, I remind myself of a bull in a china cabinet.
