Gender equality....how much is enough??

Reasoned Audacity  reprints an article that originally appeared in 2002 but is still relevant. You might think this is a tongue in cheek spoof except it isn't.  What were the feminists doing on the night before the 911 attacks? Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services  was meeting in the Pentagon to discuss  breastfeeding, how to enforce gender neutral usage warrior terminology, uniforms with maternity tops and recruiting slogans such as " A gynecologist on every aircraft carrier!"   The article suggests that the military is not a law firm or country club  that needs to be integrated. 

They bring up a good point....can we go to far with political correctness and gender equality. There are non combat jobs in the military but are women physically built for combat and does their gender give them an equal opportunity to survive the battle and what about the men who depend on their "fellow soldiers" for their survival??

My grandson's football team faced a team that included one girl. One player hit her and when he was told he just took down a girl he was horrified.  

How far is too far for gender equality??
