    Three thoughts come to mind in this case:

    1]  The excuse the air-force gave was probably a lame one.  After
    all, TWO women could stay in that bunker, if single sex was deemed
    a requirement by the military.

    2]  It seems to me that the woman who was objecting, was objecting
    as a metter of principal, and not that she was dying to be one of
    the select few people in this country who are prepared to initiate
    global holocaust.

    3]  You never hear feminists complaining about sexism in garbage col-
    lection, or in sewage maintenence.  So I have to laugh every time I
    read about "discrimination" in the high-pay, high-enjoyment jobs, because
    you never hear about the males who were "discriminated" against.
