What happens if men performs on balance beam in gymnastics..?

Question

Even though men are stronger than women, why cant they perform on balance beam in gymnastics, which is performed by women..

Answer 1

For the same reason women don't compete on the high bar.  It just isn't done.

Answer 2

I don't really know too but one guess is cos it's really easy to lose balance. And if a guy does that there's a high probablity that he'll land on his crotch (?) And we all know what effect that'll have.

But I'm sure the rules don't really depend on safety lol - the reason's probably because men are too big so have less good balance than women.

Answer 3

hmmm good question, i think it does have to do with our body structures because although men are stronger their balance might not be as good because girls are more petite (most of the time). it's just like how girls don't compete on the horse!
