Men and women aren't identical. We are physically different and always will be unless men ever become capable of being pregnant and giving birth.

There's a difference between being treated with equal respect and being paid equal rates for equal work than in declaring that we are 100% equal.

Now I know some male wimps too who would be useless as soldiers and I'm not saying that women can't fight but I do feel that we have a different role to play in life and shouldn't belittle that by trying to be men.

But isn't it about choice?

Some women chose to be full time mothers, others want to do other things as well, including joining the armed forces, and going to the frontline.

Would you take that choice away?

What's the point of equality if it isn't applicable to everyone?
