Uh, reality check. Despite all the propaganda about "warrior women" who can kick men's asses, in the real world even an out of shape man can overpower most women - indeed, the hysteria about rape culture implicitly assumes that.
And again in the real world, women can't pass U.S. Army Ranger training. Men just have more upper body strength than women on average.
They will very shortly.
I watched some news story on how they've opened up Ranger training to women, those women who tried, failed, and how they needed to "reevaluate the test" to more properly match requirements.
While that makes sense in the abstract, I'm sure that one unstated requirement will be "some women will pass the test".
OP added the parody tag after you posted this...
He added the closing tag, but not the begin tag.
Given that so many people would seriously post such nonsense, the post was destined for misunderstanding and time wasting for many involved.
Whatever point the OP was attempting to make, there must have been a more effective way of making it.
