In most cases you might be correct, especially when it comes to a business environment.

But the reality is that the issue of women in combat roles is no different than what we've seen with women in many other "traditionally male" roles. You probably couldn't find a single law enforcement agency, fire department, etc. that hasn't instituting "gender norms" that hold women to lower standards than men for identical roles.
