Women haven't been culturally suppressed in the developed world for what... 50 years or so? It's long enough to realise where women are willing and competitive and it turns out the field isn't perfect parity with men.

Uhh, what? 50 years is nowhere close to long enough to eliminate cultural norms like that. That's barely two generations; a great many people who grew up under the "suppression" you mentioned are still alive and directly influencing the upbringing of children born today, to say nothing of the indirect influence of how they parented and influenced the previous generation. You grossly overestimate how quickly culture evolves.

Nobody's encouraged to be a professional sportsman,

Somebody's never met a set of hockey parents.
