I don't think so really. It's just that a lot of the stuff involved with traditional athletics was developed with men-as-standard: female-bodied people take longer to build the same amounts and kinds of muscle, which means that stuff like unassisted pull-ups can be discouraging, and hard to see measurable improvement on, unlike assisted.
Especially when you weigh in, like me, at 108-110kg these days. :P
