Here is the skinny. Most Women are a distraction to the mission among swinging dicks. That’s not a bad reflection on the women or the men. It just is.
But then there is another factor, most gals are hardwired to want security and socially they have been trained to want men to do the hard stuff so that they can “feel” protected.

I honestly don’t mean this as degrading to women, but have you ever seen a gal changing the tire on the side of a freeway? They just wont do it. They will stand there and try to look pretty or hopeless or what ever, hoping a Man comes by and bails them out before they will take care of the situation themselves.

I know women are capable of doing this job and they often do difficult stuff all the time “alone”

But social dynamics make men and women stupid.

I have seen women on U2 programs that work on the ground crew and are worthless because they can “get away with it” in that atmosphere, And I have seen Woman U2 pilots that are fine because they have the “you are on your own attitude”

Submarines are an odd thing. I cant quite explain it.
That U2 pilot has the luxury of solitude.
Submariners do not.

Hey!!!! Have you been spying on me, bub? ;^)

Absolutely, that is so true! And tender-hearted men almost always show up to help. On the flip side, that "woman's touch" in a home, in ways of cleanliness, tidiness, loving care, TLC, and maybe a home-made apple pie or home-cooked meal made with affection, is something men aren't hard-wired to provide for themselves, and they get depressed and lonely and bitter without them. Married men live longer for a reason.

So for all the times kind, tender-hearted men have helped me out ... I hope I have equally provided them with a little (non-physical!!!) love and psycholgical female affection and admiration, a good housecleaning, a warm meal, a kind word, a sympathetic ear. We have our different jobs to do and I want you to know how much I appreciate you guys out there who come to our rescue ... and I pray that when you're in need, a kind woman will come to yours.
