RE: favorite movie
Whould you mind showing me some proof? I heard that men have higher pain threshold than women. I remember watching it on a news program.
and CRAMPS... do they ring a bell lol???? i've been through countless surgeries now and still go on the job.... i've punched through car windows, split my knuckles and still ran the JAWS for the next 40 minutes before seeking medical attention ( 9 stitches)... (yes that move was very stupid on my part... but i wasn't thinking because it was somebody i knew trapped in the car)

ok, well a month or two ago there was a prisoner being taken back to jail after his court hearing, and there was a female cop taking him. he pushed her over, grabbed her gun, and shot a judge and two other people. would that same scenario have happened if this was a man? who knows, maybe, maybe not. Why do all the big stars have big male body guards instead of women? (maybe there are some with women, but i am not aware of any) seriously, this has nothing to do with prejudice against women, but as i said previously, men are just better in certain jobs! and for you saying that a girl can knock me senseless, i bet some could. but most could not. im not saying don't hire women. im saying keep the standards the same, so we aren't getting second rate service. our tax dollars should only go to the best of the best.
The southern pennsylvania Transportation authority determined that if a police officer could not run 1.5 miles in 12 minutes, it would be a danger to the public. which still isnt that fast. 60% of men passed, 12% of women passed
hg, your from new york right? 11,500 firefighters are on duty in New york city. and only 25 are women (taken from 2002). and in 1982, a woman sued the state to have the standards lowered so more women could participate. and she won. so standards have been lowered.
the average women has 45-50% less upper body strength, and 25-30% less aerobic capacity. Women suffer bone stress fractures and other injuries at double the rate of men.
In israel in 1948, men would throw themselves in front of the women to take bullets for them.
and for the whole fire fighter thing.. here is an interesting statistic that i heard on talk radio a few weeks ago, on 911, not one female firefighter died. not one. that is because they sent the men in instead of the women. and fire fighters came from neighboring states and cities.
look at the list of the fire department rescue personnel who died, not one woman. they just send the men in first. which im not saying send the women in first, but if our tax dollars are to go to both genders, send both in. unless the department thought the women weren't as qualified. who knows. im done with this, because its just turning into a flame war. (btw hunting girl, if you're a feminist, why would you call me a woman to offend me?)
why do we have to have so much political correctness? lets just look at the statistics! now im going to ask you this question agian, but think honestly, would you rather have a 6 foot 200 lb man who has 50 % more strength be in charge of getting you out of a burning building or a 5'4 women who would basically drag you out? i don't know why anyone would ever say woman! i just don't get it. i have nothing against women. but i would say the same thing about child care. would i want to send my 3 year old daughter over to a man to look after her if i didn't know the guy? no! because men have a much higher history of rape and molestation.
i say give people an equal opportunity for the job, but don't lower the standards which has happened pretty much everywhere!
