  • There are sports where women have reached or surpassed men’s records, for example long-distance endurance races or some accuracy-based competitions. Anything where raw explosive strength or size isn’t the main deciding factor. There are examples in history where women have been banned from participating in specific sports because they have been able to win in competition with men.

    I think, for the leagues you listed, size, strength and speed are often key, and as such most men have an advantage over most women. I don’t doubt there could be exceptions to that rule.

    It took me far too long to understand the wtf-ness of this.

    In Finnish, ‘Jussi’ (the Finnish ‘J’ is similar to ‘Y’ in English) is a common men’s name. Think John or similar. It carries some connotations from classic literature to peasants, hard work, and sisu.

    And “pussi” simply means a bag, specifically a simple one usually made out of paper or plastic.

    The branding is supposed to invoke an idea of breakfast buns that are traditional, simple, and full of energy to carry you through your day.
