They cannot say that it wasn’t caused by women, because there were no men in the pilot’s seat.

It probably crashed for the same reason there are few female racecar drivers, because there are skills that are inherently male and inherently female and flying a jet plane is what men do best.

I don’t like women in warplanes, period. That being said there are plenty of men who have even worse accidents than these women. I’m not saying that the pilot wasn’t at fault but I don’t believe they are any more likely than a male crew would be to be at fault. There are many women flight crews in civilian aviation and they seem to be doing just fine.

Men are more risky drivers, that is true. Men will tend to do things like drive through a space that has a margin of two inches on either side of the vehicle. But that’s because their inherent maleness allows for things like that more than women.

What I say is not inherently anti-female.

Civilian planes is a different ballgame than military jets, because the stress isnt’ there.

Well, that’s the thing when women think they can perform the same tasks as men: they seem to not understand that things like being a fighter pilot, or a Special Ops soldier, the overwhelming majority of men can’t do it, or at least do it very well.

They seem to believe that the men who do those jobs get to do them because they are men, and the ONLY reason they don’t get to it is because they are women.

There is no reason to bring John McCain into this conversation. Right now, he is crashing jets in hell.
