Aren't the best women in esports really men too?

Whenever I hear "one of the best %X players is a woman" and %X is a videogame or card game I check if it's a troon and I don't think I've been wrong yet. It's like Cassandra syndrome except instead of being cursed with prophecy it's like being cursed with noticing obvious things.
'The best %X' is virtually always going to be man. Women cluster toward the average, men spread further to the extremes.
It makes perfect evolutionary sense for it to be this way - the women need to be stable because they carry the children. The men need to be more variable because if they're not, there'll be precious little evolution/adaptation.
Sports, esports, swimming, wrestling, speed running... let's just face it. Women are just mad that men are better women than women 😌
Have you seen the speed running community?
Not really, no. Not since the days of Quake 1 at least.
Well if you wanted to see a lot of men calling themselves women play games quickly then you might like it.
Speed runners I'm assuming have some form of mild autism and I would not be surprised is there is some connection between autism and transgenders. At the very least it makes them easy targets for groomers.
Funny enough, being in to videogames is such a guy thing to do.
Well, Scarlett is a dude and best "female" starcraft player by far.
So we just default to having nipples letting our hair grow long and it all works out for us?
