Some time ago I saw a documentary on Marine recruit training in which a platoon of male recruits were "compared" to a platoon of female recruits.From the outset it was repeated claimed that the two platoons were getting *exactly* the same training.No easier stuff for the women.

One day after a particularly tough (and,supposedly,identical) day of training both members of the male and female platoons were interviewed.

The guys were clearly tired...sore...and even appeared to be dispirited but every one of the made it clear that they could hack it.

The women,when interviewed,were weeping like school girls.
