I agree with you that 20kg for a woman is not thát crazy, even for a beginner. But the "woman's bar" is also very popular, which is only 15kg. I think the main reason many women prefer this one is because the thinner bar is easier to grip.
If you gym got one, yes. I think I've only ever seen a lighter bar once, and the gym only had one of those.
Maybe other countries are better at accommodating for woman in the gym than commercial gyms in Norway are.
