Agreed, though, that trying to curb anyone's discretion in his/her personal decision regarding risk-taking with the argument that this might hurt the protective impetus of members of the other sex might be well-intentioned but is not a tenable position IMO.
Well at least one ex military person agrees with my views exactly. I shall consider myself vindicated.
As for trying to curb anyone’s personal descision on risk taking.
I was Royal Navy, flight deck crash and rescue. I would have no concerns entering a serious fuel fire with a female partner to attempt the rescue.
