Anyone else think the the Brits gave up without Cornwall firing a shot across the bow of the Iranians because “Topsy” Turny had recently given birth to a baby girl?

“Anyone else think the the Brits gave up without Cornwall firing a shot across the bow of the Iranians because “Topsy” Turny had recently given birth to a baby girl?”

I would like to see one of our FR stistician types try to make somme figures on the effect on Western Civilization if child bearing age women had been 50% of the casualties in our wars.

Would we even have reproduced enough to have become “Western Civilization”?

If half of the dead from Romes early days, were young women would Rome had ever developed, even if Western Civ. had lost 10 or 15 million of it’s healthiest young women in combat in WWII, what would that have meant for the West’s growth (and ability to defend itself) since 1945?
