So an average male (say 5'9 ish as an adult, no neurological issues, but no indication of exceptional ability either), with training since a young age will reach professional caliber proficiency/mastery in any field? So he will be an NBA caliber player if he trains in basketball, will be NFL caliber if trains in football, will be a boxing champion if trains in boxing, will be a chessmaster if trained in chess, will be a Nobel level scientist if trained it science, etc.?
And a female could do the same in all of those fields since it is mostly training?
Sure... just look at Tony Romo (fits both of those arguments )
