Feminism #2

Now I don't agree with that. The test should be universal. Certainly in the UK I understand that it is.

Absolutely. Whilst strength is not all there is in firefighting, there IS a minimum strength level required for the job and this should be universal, male or female.

I don't think the squeamish thing is true, as there are plenty of women in the health professions, and I, myself, am not in the least bit sqeamish - anybody who's had to sit up all night with a sick pet knows what I'm talking about!

Well, I gues it's just the women I know who are squeamish but we have to go get my dad to kill all the bugs.

women in the army is a laugh, they never gonna achive the respect it requires to lead a unit, regardless of GI Jane

Why have women got smaller feet?

So they can stand closer to the kitchen sink. 😄

Only joking. We now have more female press-workers at my place than male. The reason being, that without doubt the women handle the repetative work better than the men. But we also have to have some blokes to handle the heavier work we do.

smaller frame, generally. there are exceptions. he he.

Short comment:
I am so against feminists! Women claim the same rights with men and to be equal and then when they have to i.e. carry luggage or something then they remember... "Oh! But I'm a woman!"
Yeah, right... 🙄

Does seem a bit off I agree.

I don't know much about feminism.

Jessica Lynch. That's all I have to say.

She wasn't actually a front line solider, was she?

She was tortured and was an inch from death! Most frontline soldiers don't experience that

LaurenE147 is speaking the truth. I used to participate in this same discussion on the debating forum.

theres always an exception, she was it.

Agreed.

Yes, but most questions abotu women in the armed forces revolve around whether they should be allowed in the front line or not.
