I am proud our women....

"Peter R. Mansoor's comment “They have earned the confidence and respect of male colleagues.”, torched me to write. It just seemed too broad a brush. That type of respect is won individually. Men, in general, don't have that respect unearned.

The percentage of men to women that "rise to the occasion" when needed is probably not too different.
My belief is not based on culture or upbringing, it's just that we are different. I can't give birth to a child, and Demi Moore can't by a Ranger.
