"If a woman is physically incapable of doing a job, she ought not to do it. If a man is physically incapable of doing a job, he ought not to do it. A man who is five feet nothing and 98 lb. is not superior to a woman who is 5'10" and 165 lb. of solid muscle, merely due to the fact that he has a penis and she has none. This is not a question of male and female. It is a matter of ability to do a job. "

I assume that you've been there and know what you are talking about. 

Well, I've been there....22 years of military service and saw the encroachment of women's lib on the military.  I observed some fine female soldiers and some who couldn't carry water in a bucket.  I was mostly in Special Operations so your quote "A man who is five feet nothing and 98 lb. is not superior to a woman who is 5'10" and 165 lb. of solid muscle, merely due to the fact that he has a penis and she has none"  had no relevance.   Most cultures will not even talk to you if you DON'T have a penis.  In the type of war we are now in you have to develop male relationships that evolve into trust.  Women in a lot of cultures haven't reached that level and won't for several generations if at all.  No caterwauling will change that. 

Most 5'10" and 165 lb. women of solid muscle I've encountered in my service have been BAMs.

"Weak Link" by Brian Mitchell. A great read for those that wish to become informed about the challenges of opening MOS' to women and compromises that were done to effect this change.
