Every time I hear about women’s rights I want to scream! Ever since the 1960s and the feminist movement, an elite group of women have been clamoring that women need equality. Now, I am not one to think that women are inferior to men, I just believe that women and men have different strengths and qualities. In my opinion, the left only values certain women. Watch out if you are a stay at home mom, pro-life or even a wife (think of the vilification of Sarah Palin). The left wants women to believe that the best “place” for them is in the work force, as a single mom, without a husband. Hasn’t this been glorified on television, movies and books?

If Obama wins the Presidency he has stated that he would review any constraints that exist to have women in every place in the military. Women should have and do have the right to serve. However, if they want the right to be treated as a man, then they must do everything a man can. There have been many complaints about the “dumbing” down of basic training so that women can be accommodated. Six to seven mile runs and now only two to three miles. Combat rating scales have been manipulated to push more women into “front-line” roles. There is even talk about giving women hormones to stop monthly cycles so that they could be “combat-ready.”

It is a shame that women can not treat other women with more respect. Respect for what they believe in, respect for choices, respect for strength.
