I know nothing about this women that the news is about, I did not mind to read about her, and I do not care. Its not about her individually. Maybe she is indeed an ace of an officer. Maybe she is just a shallow PR coup to promote feminism. I do not know, and I do not care, for she as one individual is not what it is about.

And why would one be rude and unpolite to somebody, for no reason, out of the blue, btw?

But then, i have been once, no twice verbally attacked and confronted because I held a door open for a younger lady who was so super-progressive that she thought men holding doors open for a lady is a form of sexual discrimination. I concluded in both cases that I did not deal with a lady, but just a spoiled brat with a vacuum between her temples.

And yes, if they would have asked me to my face whether I think they are ----------, I would have said "yes". Politeness is all nice and well, but why not confronting somebody else who is unpolite to me, when s/he asks for getting a proper reply?

Some people are strange.

Just because you repeat yourself, doesn't make it right.

:hmmm: So it's not about women being in the military, it's about women being in the military.
