I know a couple of women who went into the police force and I wouldn't like to be on the end of their fists. They look like blokes anyway tbh.

Lifting 30kg from floor to bench level is tough but with the help of my legs I manage it no bother


I do struggle with some things, a 25kg net of cabbage is an awkward bugger to lift.I personally can only carry it any distance once I have it hugged to my body Kate, who is 34, is built like the proverbial brick house can carry a net in each hand no bother at all

I really admire women bus drivers, especially those that drive double deckers. Usually, they are tiny women!

Visa versa, some people think some things are better done by women! I think it took many a while, to get used to male nurses and male carers.
There are exceptions to every rule of course, but are we speaking in a general sense, and if so then yes, men are better suited to some tasks and women to others. Why there is a need amongst some to make everyone equal in all things bewilders me, vive la difference I say...

Can you explain this?

I myself think that you are referring to a woman's time of month? If that is the case, can you link to any reported cases of women airline pilots ditching planes into the sea because of a touch of PMT ?

Generally because of our natural physic men are stronger then females , that is a given. But that not to say women can not be effective fire fighters and police officers. And of course there is the odd female brickie and labourer. Why would there not be if they are physically capable of doing the job


I've laboured to my husband when he was doing private jobs. Perfectly capable of making a mix and wheeling it out to him, plus keeping him in bricks. Ok I couldn't use a hod as well stacked as a fella so had to do twice as many journeys but then he's rubbish with a hod as well lol

Re: Somethings are better done by men

We're told Men think about sex every 7 seconds...so do 'Mens things' take over when flying a plane I wonder?
