"Female trouble, emotional issues, child care issues, higher rates of injury compared to men..."

I did 20 in USAF aircraft maintenance, it's not much better there either.

They can't lift a C-5 CSD & Generator for example, can't handle some of the other heavy lifting, get fatigued more quickly, can't carry a toolbox up a stand to access the engine, and on and on...when pregnant, they immediately go on light duty that precludes working on the shop floor due to hazardous materials and now, with 12 weeks of post birth maternity leave, the unit has lost a body for 1 year.

If any women get offended by this, sorry. Them's the facts.

And facts are stubborn things.

Perhaps not right now, when political correctness can completely obscure and shelter the facts, but when it comes to a bunch of soldiers doing hand-to-hand combat from and in foxholes, those facts become very stubborn indeed.

But the liberals tell us physical strength isn’t important to be a combat soldier nowadays. It’s all push-button wars, dontcha know.

Frigging idiots.
