NO, NO and NO! It is instinctive for a man to want to protect a female. Why turn two guns into one? Let’s not violate God’s ways AGAIN, shall we?

Perhaps you've never heard about Joan of Arc.

“Perhaps you’ve never heard about Joan of Arc.”

Of course we all have. . .because she was a RARITY.

“Perhaps you’ve never heard about Joan of Arc.”

Nuns with guns are rare on the front lines.

And, to make GWG’s point, I’m sure a lot of men died trying to protect her _instead_ of the mission.

Too many don’t appreciate that men are hard-wired to protect women _at_all_costs_. They’re also hard-wired (DADT type issues aside) to copulate therewith, at similar self- and team-destructive risk. Yeah it’s all more complex than that in reality, but that’s introducing such complexity where it wasn’t.

Heinlein opined (exact wording escaping me) that any society that abandons “women and children FIRST” is doomed.

Joan never heard of these either.
