don't begin to think you know me.

I don't think either of you advocate women coed with men in professional or even school football or that we have no gender rules in boxing.

 that would mean we don't advocate anything we haven't talked about yet.

and if not, you could always assume.

kanth... i don't know you... I am taking you at your word.   I do that with most people until I find out otherwise.   you are the one who claimed that finding people who disagree with you meant talking with the homeless loonies.   I have found that most of the drug addicts are "progressive" leaning... or were before they lost the ability to communicate.    You simply need to catch them before they slip into incoherance (relatively).

Ok... I'll bite... do you believe that boxing, football and other violent sports should not be gender specific and, if not... how can you not agree that combat troops should be gender specific?

and mt.. if I didn't make myself clear... think of it this way... there is no dearth of candidates for firefighter positions.   The testing can and should be very tough.   When it is your loved one that can't be rescued because the woman who met "average" recruitment standard couldn't carry out the victim or drag that extra 100 ft of hose or use the battering ram or axe or carry all of her equipment and a chain saw up a ladder and then hack through a roof...  well... feel good liberalism doesn't count for much then...   Especially when you know that 100's of qualified applicants who coulda done the job were turned down in order to get some "diversity".    firefighter is not an ornamental position.
