I was reading an article where half way or so through, a paragraph struck me as a little odd:
Men will always monopolise the means of violence if they can. Women can learn to shoot guns, but there are no all-female armies, and even the Amazons were probably a myth. Women, on the whole, would naturally like to do something else, whereas an army, for too many men, is a home away from home, and often their only home.
What do people think of this? Agree disagree? Do you think its written by a man? woman? feminist? realist?
Any other opinions?
There will never be all-female armies because their physical biology (in terms of strength and muscle-power) does not in general allow it.
Id agree that women would take the more logical, responsible, and practical approach and sort things out rather than resort to violence
May Allah shine sweet faith upon you this day and times beyond. May your heart be enriched with peace, and may your home be blessed always. Ameen.
Nu-uh! Id females were in charge there would just be international bitching sessions between countries... passing notes around the UN and stuff.
On the whole, when girls fall out with each other it's MUCH worse than when boys do. Boys just fight and then make up the next day, girls' arguments go on for months and months with everyone taking sides etc.
Don't just do something! Stand there.
While that may have been historically true, I doubt it matters who much who is squeezing the trigger of a machine gun...
