(this)show(s) that women "can deal with the same stresses and training that men can."

How many (hand-picked) women can do what (many) men can? Apples to oranges!!!

I saw this syndrome back in the 70's as a USMC Naval Aviator. The Navy decided to allow female pilots. If a man wanted to become a Navy or Marine Pilot, he had to volunteer, qualify physically and mentally, endure and pass all the training and basically prove himself qualified every day to win the wings of gold.

In contrast, the Navy sent scouts all over the country searching out women who were already civilian pilots and massaged their journey through Navy Flight Training.

Then - "Oh, look; women can do what men do!"

Yeah, OK.

One positive thing I gleaned from the article is that both of these women had strong fathers who influenced and mentored them. Feminazis, take note.

Still, it’s a waste of resources.
