Yes, you heard that right. Manly woman of the week. Not some East German shot put champion, but a real lady, who goes by the nom de plume of Adoro te Devote. She is an ex-cop, and an ex-firefighter who has had it with radical feminism.
Maybe some women are comfortable with the idea of coasting along on some kind of legislation that permitted laziness and lawsuits for alleged "discrimination." I knew some women like that and I did my best to distance myself from them. They make all of us look like a bunch of fools. And amazingly, every woman I knew in that particular category was a rabid feminist who couldn't be bothered to put in the extra effort in the gym or with the books or whatever was required to take them out of their myopic navel-gazing worldview.
Right on. Now this is the kind of feminist who manly men can line up behind. This is someone who has made a decision on what she wants to do, and does what it takes to do it.
However, as manly men know, actions have consequences.
The fact is that although women can do the job, we have to work THREE TIMES AS HARD as men in order to do it, and our bodies really are't built to take that kind of physical stress.
This really is the crux of the issue. If a woman is strong enough, or is determined enough to become strong enough to do demanding jobs, I have never had an issue with it.
Here is a lady who understands life as it is, not as she'd like it to be. She plays the hand the she's given, and plays it the best she can. She watches out for herself, and will never be a victim, because that mentality is not a part of her. She may at some point be victimized, but she will take a piece of whoever hurts her with her, possibly if she's carrying, ventilate a scumbag and make the world safer for all of us.
I NEVER felt excluded by the term "brothers" because I had always understood this to mean "brothers and sisters."
Well right on brother. :)
