Submarines sound horrible, I can't believe we're letting men onto those things.
Yeah, and men have a much higher suicide rate and all that. It'd be safer to replace them with female-only crews

Eh, this forum doesn't do much of that. Least of not you! It's just people still do authority appeals and all that.
Yes, well. . . if you see any of that from me, too, then you should point that out >_>
Pregnancy and different living conditions under health.
Current issue I've been trying to address is that the standards are lowered for female rates. The worst rates they are sending are not on an equal performance with the worst male rates sent.
Yes, but that had nothing to do with that article.
Here's the thing that I keep on trying to tell people about the math department. At my university, a woman was denied tenure and sued for misogyny (she had a solid case; the guy who vetoed her said something about staying in the kitchen or similar). Nowadays, people still question whether she has a right to teach at my school, saying that she's not exactly the best of the best.
But that's the thing--why should we only hire women who can compete with "the best of the best?" We'll hire talented men and best-of-the-best men, but only best-of-the-best women can be hired? That doesn't make sense!
Similarly, we've got all those people talking about how we need more female directors being wildly successful. Well, no, we also need to act like female directors have the right to make shitty B movies, same as every dude. Why should women have to be
better than men in order to be considered equal?
So this is what I'm trying to say. What you say about the worst women being worse than the worst men does not matter as long as they all surpass a particular baseline.
Oh, and for everyone so worried about menstruation:
we already solved that problem.
Given the paucity of information on menstrual cycle effects, this paper will review studies that evaluated differences between men and women regardless of whether the menstrual cycle was controlled, and will make note of menstrual cycle effects when known.
I hope they're also controlling for
this.
