You might as well argue that athletes shouldn't use heavy metal objects* (for instance) to improve for some unspoken politcal reasons (not enough Womyn working in the iron industry perhaps?**).

No one said it's the ONLY way Womyn can improve.

There's a school of thought that it is A way.

* what we English speakers call weight training

** of course once we open the door to politically motivated traning methods it's only a matter of time before we refuse to train with the Jews, the Blacks, the Whites, the Muslims, the left handed...and so on. For whatever reason.
