Basically, the requirements for woman to be police officers are about as half as stringent as the requirements for men to be police officers. Why, b/c men are inherently more qualified to be police officers. Are some women qualified--yes. Are some more qualified than me--Yes. But are the most qualified woman as qualified as the top men--NO.
Yet, why can't society accept this? Why are they making it easier for woman?
To me, these double standards are symptomatic of society. People want to believe they can do anything. That is a false premise. You know what, I encourage my daughter to play sports, including boxing, but if she told me her dream was to fight for the championship of the world in the men's division then I would tell her that is not possible. Why, because it is biolgoically proven.
