Which is what he should have said and his point would have been succint and clear. Instead, he opted for vague references to emotions, naturally, compromising missions. I have been corrected several times by military guys on this thread, and I defer to you and them regarding women and combat. However, believe me when I say, most women who hear this comment from Santorum, will only hear one word, “emotions” and to women that has hormones written all over it. We hear it all the time and I still think there is a good chance that is what he was alluding to.
Ok, I’m done here. You guys will have to forgive me, my hormones and emotions are raging. Lol.........
So you are saying women are poor listeners. Actually I think most people are poor listeners and that includes you if you didn’t hear the part about (paraphrasing now) we already see that happening due to the camaraderie of the men. Of course everyone should try to be articulate, especially when the media are involved, but sometimes it is hard at the spur of the moment. Anyone, male or female, who takes umbrage at those remarks is just looking for a reason to criticize.
