Subject: FUN: Newt & the Giraffe (**)
A quote from Newt Gingrich:
"If combat means living in a ditch, females have biological problems
staying in a ditch for thirty days because they get infections and they
don't have upper body strength. I mean, some do, but they're relatively
rare. On the other hand, men are basically little piglets, you drop them
in the ditch, they roll around in it, doesn't matter, you know. These
things are very real. On the other hand, if combat means being on an
Aegis-class cruiser managing the computer controls for twelve ships
and their rockets, a female may be again dramatically better than a male
who gets very, very frustrated sitting in a chair all the time because
males are biologically driven to go out and hunt giraffes."
