Never, EVER, piss off a woman. I once got in trouble for writing a staff proposal suggesting the employment of women as combat fighter pilots, and encouraging fraternization between the women pilots and bomber crews, based on the way women are hardwired with protective responses. CinCSAC, his own damn'd self, called me into his office, shitcanned my proposal, and ordered me to never broach the subject again. My theory was to encourage the women to look on the bomber crews as their responsibilities (children, if you will). ANY threat to their well-being would bring out the "mama instinct" in the women, most probably resulting in the absolute, total destruction of whatever it (or who) it was threatening their charges. Not a nice picture, but Gen Chain looked at the political side of the problem, and figured that being THAT manipulative wouldn't sit well with congress. Goddam politicians.
