Women solving Square-1?

[Gabig]

Hi
I have a question. Do you know something about women who solving sq1? In Poland there are two "good" women, and I'd know how it's in the other countries. Is it popular? Are there any women in first WCA 100?

Women, in wca, not possible, how would the get out of the kitchen? JKJK. But anyway, it doesnt matter what sex you are, really.

Stephanie Chow, if I'm not mistaken, has been #1 at sq1 for ages.

Daryl Ariawan from Indonesia

My competition results certainly don't show it but I don't think I'm *that* bad at Square-1 (for a girl of course ) When I was practising every day I was easily averaging 23-26. Should probably get back into that before Euro...

I suck at sq-1 in competition, but I used to avg ~27 when I practiced at home. My PB avg12 was 24.xx (mostly easy scrambles ). I had a 21.41 avg5 on video a few months ago.

It's fine, we are awesome anyway Sarah Competition awesomeness is overrated.

> It doesn't matter what sex you are. Anybody can be good at any aspect of cubing.

I don't get why you are all saying "it doesn't matter...". What's wrong with someone asking who the best women are?

It's just a different group of people, just like asking who the best solver is in Europe for example... Nobody is saying anything against women solving they're just asking because they're interested to know.

Women? In my square 1 solving? It's more likely than you think. Free wimminz sq1 check

I found this a while ago. I'm not sure how complete it is, or how many of you have seen it, but it's certainly something to browse through.

Yeah guys. Its not sexist to ask a question like that.

I guess my rank of 37 puts me in first because I'm a girl right?

how the **** do you get a sub 30 sq 1 avg? I've been solving for a couple of months now and i avg at 1:30. Which method is this? I use the one with the 2 alg oll and 1 alg pll.

Lol some people solve for a couple of years to get that fast I guess. Practice also.

Can't really help on methods cause I do not own a Sq-1 and cannot solve one.

Don't use OLL/PLL for square 1. Use CO/EO/CP/EP.
