    When was the last time I saw a woman fighting a war? How about we ask all the woman in the military? I could gladly call up my sister in the Air Force, and see if she can find out an average. ;)

    Woman can also be just as violent as men, its just not reported as often, especially if their violent towards a male.

    If we were all female, no one here would exist...the world needs a man and woman to create life...-_-...
    If we were all women, we would be just as competitive. Come to my school and watch the girls basketball team, they are meanier then the guys...I'm on the guys varsity team, and we are almost scared of the girls...>_>...lol...
