We all have our strengths and our weaknesses and they are in no way gender specific

Myka, just because you can't keep up with your job does not mean another women couldn't do the same job "working that hard" and be happy.
Marie, I don't think anyone is pigeonholling anyone here, am I don't beleave this is anything for women to get defencive about. on average is what we are talking about and yes there are the exception, I had one girl who worked for me who could out lift 3/4 of the men and was a very good worker, I also had men that were built like twigs and couldn't do the very intence physical work, so yes there are exceptions both ways. but when it comes to the norm there are very distinctive physical and mental differances between men and women which I don't feel is a bad thing or a good thing it just is. the debate is how these differances are addresses in the real world.
