Do you agree with her, or do you think she is being selfish by taking a job on like this, and leaving her husband to look after their children?

Does muscle-mass impact on ability to report news stories?

Not in the least, but isn't this also a good reason why women should also be deployed in the military, on the front line of these war situations?

Didn't see many in the Falklands, Bosnia, Iraq or Afghanistan.

Come to that although there are male children fighting along side the men in Libya, I have seen no women.

Are you looking for an answer to your original question and linked story, or seeking to widen this into more of a "Whatever are women doing out of the Kitchen?" type discussion?

AOG, surely you realise that it's men who run the military by and large, and that they have made the decisions all these years, so how would you expect women to be out in these frontline conflicts, if their commanders say they can't. I would also suggest that the reason you don't see many women fighting alongside the men in Libya, is their menfolk say they can't. And no i don't know that for sure, but suspect that is the reason.

About which party to this are you asking "Sexist and Insulting?"

[joko]

aog....your 'response' was completely irrelevant....and i have no idea why you have made it....all your supposed points make no difference to this issue at all...

i did not say women and men were the same...i said we were equal...which is not the same thing at all...
