listen very close to the details......
It brings tears to your eyes just to hear the stories. I really wonder how many in this country, men and women alike, who have that resolve.
Thanks for sharing.
There have been female warriors throughout history who were every bit as savage, brave and tough as any men could be. Sometimes they were on the front line and sometimes behind the scenes working in other ways but hats off to all of them...
Sorry Meer but it is far from impossible and it doesn't take much research to explain it. War isn't always about physical strength and toughness. Read about the Russian female snipers of WWII, or the Celtic female warriors of the British isles.Sorry Spike but that is impossible,women ain't built as tough as men.
I don't understand all this isis type stuff going on now in this nation. especially since the white man is already under siege as it is.
Women also have a monthly visitor than can also complicate and slow things down.
HollyHoods even have the kids bossing him around and making him look like an idiot.
Giant muscles are not required for the combat mindset either, which is probably the most important part of winning the fight.One cannot look at a pampered young urban woman of today and presume all woman are like that, or have been in history.
While yes a fit male will dead lift more weight or have better endurance than most woman this is not to say that females can't and wont fight and win. I totally disagree with the idea that woman can't fight, just like I objected to a video Elkhound posted a while back, I think the video was by VikingPrepardness, but I could be wrong. To me it was completely full of nonsense. I didn't go into why I disagreed but maybe I should have. For example the video said if a man grabs hold of a woman she won't be able to escape. Honestly I can't roll my eyes enough at that. Just for my 1st dan black belt I had to know over 130 ways of getting out of holds. I have "thrown"...yes lifted off their feet and over my shoulder men with a foot more height and 50 pounds more than me. This is not movie nonsense it's a matter of experience, training and practice. It does not take giant muscle either.
Giant muscles are also not required to shoot a gun, wield a katana or staff, throw a knife or hatchet, set explosives or build traps.

Now if you said that on average, men are better warriors, I'd agree. On average, men are physically better built for certain things and warfare is one of those. But not everybody is average...
Meerkat,
Some women are stronger than some men. They can also be vicious - more-so than some men.The strongest man may be stronger than the strongest woman but three of those women can beat the single man. Battles are fought at range - rarely hand-to-hand and most women that I know can shoot a gun or operate a bow at least as good as most men and usually better. It is also easier for women to "look the victim" until their opponent gets within range and then disembowel him and walk away with his weapons.

Half the French resistance were women.
Women fought in both the war of independence and the war between the states. There have been women fighters in every war. Some lasted longer than others but that is to be expected. Not all warriors get to go home.
All I can say is to the serious survivalists, as a prepper and survivalist myself. Please, please don't perpetuate the myth that woman can't fight. Don't say this to your wife, your daughter, your niece. You may not be by their side every moment and they should know how to fight. They are perfectly capable of doing so and it may save their life. And if they want to defend their country then that is their prerogative too.
I will offended people here and for that I am sorry.
But in my relationship we both learn everything. For example we can both grow and preserve food. We can both shoot. Limiting knowledge by gender in a survival situation is both stupid and deadly dangerous.
If I die will my husband or baby starve because it's a female's place to grow vegetables and prepare meals? No.
If he dies should I give up at the first violent threat because he is not their to protect me? No.
Men and woman are both amazing and capable and there should never be a limit on what either gender can learn, do or achieve.
I'm sorry but in the topic of this thread I am going to have to disagree with you.Rambett , nobody is saying women can't fght. Just saying all the training , clases won't make you eqivilant to a man. My goodness just look at how the trans men beat yall in every sport when they claim womanhood and get in womens leaques. Why are the women whinning about? I played softball on co-ed teams and I can tell you the men out perfomred us big time. And I was one heck of a ballplayer 'inmy day' and put my all into it practicing all the time . I didn't like it but had no choice.

This thread and OP is about women fighting a war. It is about women fighting for their lives and country.
You are talking about sport. With rules and time limits and weight divisions. I even stated in an above post that a fit male will be stronger then a woman. But this isn't about how far you can throw a ball or preform in a wrestling match with nice kind rules. This is about SHTF, it's about war.
And in one on one unarmed combat if I loose it will be to a younger, fitter, better trained opponent. Regardless of if that opponent is male or female. Any man will have the same results.
Armed warfare is another story. And that is about ability, mindset, determination and pure will. Gender has absolutely no impact on the ability to shoot a sub MOA at 200 yards. Just as it as no impact whatsoever on sitting in an abandoned building and taking sniper shots at an advancing enemy.
