Really and why is this? Could it be because there is a DIFFERENCE between the sexes? I guess Bush is sexist too.

No - the ONLY difference is, fewer women have chosen to join the military

Nothing to do with strength -

It is not a strength issue as you assert / allege

Obviously, you are unfamiliar with the military

I can probably arrange a trip to the ME with the Red Cross for you if you would like - you would have to do a little work while there - but perhaps you would get a totally different perspective

Interested?

Well, tell me why your president says no women in combat. He is sexist, right? I mean, there must be SOME reason.

First off, I'm not a Jack, I'm a Jill...or haven't you paid attention?

No thanks to your offer. I'm a girlie girl and president Bush would frown on this - for a reason. I guess he knows better than you...or you'd be the president.

LOL, thanks for attempting to direct this thread back on track. We will see

Anyway, being a girlie girl does have its advantages. No man is going to want to wear our pearls. (or even if they want to, haha)

Re: the BBB, I don't want to cause a problem with my neighbor, as I like her.

Well - too bad.

Many so called "girlie girls" have volunteered to go and help our troops - as have many men (myself included) - and funny thing - The President has had no comments nor complaints about the "girlie girls" going to Iraq or Afganistan -

Nor, has Bush complained about the brave women in combat in theatre either

You are misinformed -

Um, why does it even matter how new the data is? It's recent. it's the 'percentages of proof' you wanted proving woman can be just as physically able as men. 2008 stats or not.

And speak for yourself. Just because you can't apply pressure to a flipping pool brush because you might break a nail, doesn't mean a good majority of women can't either.

Please. It's not THAT hard.... if you really want to go there in your 'housewife girly girl' mentality, you should know how to apply pressure for a good scrubdown anyways. Housework anyone?
