I have to agree with privateer here we tend to forgot or ignore that there have been some pretty bad ass women doing some seriously dangerous things in wars in the past.

I read in a book written by a WWII Red Army junior officer the best part is the section where he tells of the time he was attached to a unit that had all female snipers.He said that these girls had never been in combat before only training and they had a little bit of trouble at first with killing(an sniper sees their victim personally)So they would try to encourage their protective instinct by having the women think of the Russian soldiers as their children and they had to kill the Germans to protect them that helped them to become better snipers and they had less trouble taking the shot.Then one of the girls slipped and slid down a muddy slope and got shot by a German machine gun after that the killer instinct got unleashed against the Germans.Anyone given the right motivation can be a deadly fighter I mean have you guys seen two(or more) women truly fight? They are much more violent than men I mean it is freaking brutal.

We all have the stereotype about women yet we ignore the stereotype about men as well.I have seen plenty of men fight over the years and what do you often see?They will spend half the time backing away from their foe rather than closing in because they either fear suffering harm or causing harm deep down(why most Armies first teach hand to hand before longer range violence) .I know until I was 13 years old I was a complete push over one day some punk picked me out and I threw a paper back book in his face when he tried to hit me(which stunned him for all of 5 seconds) then he stared to beat my ass and I did nothing to defend myself luckily it was at school and he got stopped.After that day I realized that I had to be willing to fight and use violence if there was no other recourse.So I trained myself by practicing Tae Kwon Do and actually fighting back when my older brother messed with me.A human being is either trained or un-trained in something it does not matter the sex of the person they merely need to have the will(sometimes that is all they need) and some training(of some form of the two you could also call training experience for example a person who learns to fight on the streets)
