“If a woman wants to be a firefighter and can meet all the qualifications (weight lifting and other performance based things that I don’t know of), should she be chosen after a man who can’t fulfill those requirements?”
Wonderful example! The feminist movement has ensured the watering down of physical requirements of firefighter (and police officers), jobs that exactly require strong physical requirements! Women now have lower standards to become a firefighter than men. Thanks to the feminist movement and the corrupt courts that heard their lawsuits.
I sure hope no one you know gets one of these female firefighters, if G-d forbid there is a fire, to come to rescue them. (Can you imagine a 150 pound female firefighter trying to rescue a 250 pound guy?)
