Sexual assault the natural outcome of putting women in combat, argues an Op-Ed.
  • Women may have invented weapons

    Didn't I read not too long ago that female monkeys of some kind were observed making and using weapons to kill prey? The males were strong enough to use their hands, but the females needed some assitance and they invented spears which made them very efficient hunters. Anthropoligists are now re-thinking the origins of weapons and tools.

    Women are not by nature less agressive or less capable of violence. What do they always say about a mother protecting her young?

    I don't understand this idea that women are out of place in war.
