Wot, like men sweat and women perspire, you mean? OK. The women's game has come on a bit since last time I saw it, but the basic problem they still have is a lack of power, especially when shooting.

Was just wondering what would be the equivalent male standard for English Women?

It could be complete rubbish but when I was at Uni in the US we were told the world cup winning women's team were comfortably beaten by the U16 US boys team

I can well believe that.
You seen the size of some 16 year olds these days?
For pace, power and agility they would destroy a women's team.

Much more interesting/satisfying watching the women run around than the men though!

While it may not be a sight from a connoisseur's POV & while some of the girls may not be exactly cover models, they're not all rotten. Going back a few years now, but I take it you haven't seen the Playboy shoot of the Brazilian women's team of the day? Doesn't look too much like hard work to me   .

I never hear anyone panning Dame Kelly Holmes for being slower than the men, or women tennis players because their game is slower. Rebecca Adlington, her times are rubbish compared to men! It's completely ludicrous to compare the two. All I care about is that the England womens team is better that other nations women's teams.
