Okay, I take back my previous post. People actually are making such sweeping generalizations.
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't realise you didn't know. Men are also better than women at Motorcar Racing - that doesn't mean I think they shouldn't do it, or that they should be excluded. Such a concept is valid in sports because in the majority of the time Women will not be able to reach the level that allows them to compete directly against men; however in something like combat it isn't about who is "better" than who in determining who should serve on the front line. It is about getting people who are willing to do service for their Country, training them, and sending them into conflict zones. Nevertheless it is a fact that women will have a higher chance of casualty in war zones due to differences in physical ability.
FYI Tennis is a sexist sport, I can't stand it. Yes women should play the same number of sets as men - and the scorer should learn to count.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
