Changing the admission standards does no such thing.
Your logic fails the test.
By changing the admission standards you are de facto giving preference to a particular sex. You are "tilting" the scales - so to speak - so that women have an "opportunity" to qualify.
I will also guarantee you that the fire department was forced into changing their policy and threatened with the loss of particular funds if they didn't. The almighty dollar is what ultimately caused the change in policy.
Women should not be firefighters - period...
