As mentioned in my "5 Things" podcast this week, if you noticed the 5' 5' girl secret service agents struggling to holster their guns, and leaving former [sic] President Trump's head totally exposed after he was shot, you'll be thrilled to learn that the gender-feminist head of the service, Kimberly Cheatle, has pledged to have 30% women agents by 2030 "by all means necessary."
"this dei lunacy is bad enough in the arts, putting Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel on a par with a clump of elephant dung, but it's horrifying when dei is applied to life or death positions, like doctors, pilots or — off the top of my head for no reason whatsoever — secret service agents assigned to protect the former [sic] president of the United States.
"this is a point I have been making for nearly 20 years now. could the near assassination of Donald Trump finally get the ball rolling?
"freeze! I just had my nails done!"

"how many people have to die before the country stops humoring feminists? last week, a defendant in a rape case, Brian Nichols, wrested a gun from a female deputy in an atlanta courthouse and went on a murderous rampage. liberals have proffered every possible explanation for this breakdown in security except the giant elephant in the room — who undoubtedly has an eating disorder and would appreciate a little support vis-a-vis her negative body image.
"the new york times said the problem was not enough government spending on courthouse security ("'budgets can affect safety inside many courthouses"). yes, it was tax-cuts-for-the-rich that somehow enabled a 200-pound [N.S.: 210-pound] former linebacker to take a gun from a 5-foot-tall grandmother. atlanta court officials dispensed with any spending issues the next time Nichols entered the courtroom when he was escorted by 17 guards and two police helicopters. he looked like P. Diddy showing up for a casual dinner party.
"I think I have an idea that would save money and lives: have large men escort violent criminals. admittedly, this approach would risk another wave of nausea and vomiting by female professors at Harvard. but there are also advantages to not pretending women are as strong as men, such as fewer dead people. even a female math professor at Harvard should be able to run the numbers on this one.
"of course, it's suspiciously difficult to find any hard data about the performance of female cops. not as hard as finding the study showing new jersey state troopers aren't racist, but still pretty hard to find. mostly what you find on nexis are news stories quoting police chiefs who have been browbeaten into submission, all uttering the identical mantra after every public safety disaster involving a girl cop. it seems that female officers compensate for a lack of strength with 'other' abilities, such as cooperation, empathy and intuition. there are lots of passing references to 'studies' of uncertain provenance, but which always sound uncannily like a press release from the feminist majority foundation. (or maybe it was the Pew research center for the people and the press, which recently released a study claiming that despite memogate, fahrenheit 911, the Richard Clarke show and the campaign against the swiftboat veterans, the press is being soft on Bush.)
"the anonymous 'studies' about female officers invariably demonstrate that women make excellent cops — even better cops than men! (one study cited an episode of she's the sheriff, starring Suzanne Somers.)
"a 1993 news article in the Los Angeles Times, for example, referred to a "study" — cited by an aclu attorney — allegedly proving that "female officers are more effective at making arrests without employing force because they are better at de-escalating confrontations with suspects." No, you can't see the study or have the name of the organization that performed it, and why would you ask?
"there are roughly 118 million men in this country who would take exception to that notion. I wonder if female officers 'de-escalate' by mentioning how much more money their last suspect made.
"these aren't unascertainable facts, like Pinch Sulzberger's sat scores. the U.S. department of justice regularly performs comprehensive surveys of state and local law enforcement agencies, collected in volumes called law enforcement management and administrative statistics.
"the inestimable economist John Lott Jr. has looked at the actual data. and I'll give you the citation! John R. Lott Jr., "does a helping hand put others at risk? affirmative action, police departments and crime," economic inquiry, april 1, 2000.
"it turns out that, far from 'de-escalating force' through their superior listening skills, female law enforcement officers vastly are more likely to shoot civilians than their male counterparts. (especially when perps won't reveal where they bought a particularly darling pair of shoes.)
"unable to use intermediate force, like a bop on the nose, female officers quickly go to fatal force. according to Lott's analysis, each 1 percent increase in the number of White female officers in a police force increases the number of shootings of civilians by 2.7 percent.
"adding White female officers also increases the number of civilians accidentally shot by police. by contrast, adding males to a police force decreases accidental civilian shootings. adding black males decreases civilian shootings by police even more. [?] (and for my handgun control inc. readers: private citizens are much less likely to accidentally shoot someone than are the police, presumably because they do not have to pursue suspects down dark alleys to make an arrest.)
"in addition to accidentally shooting people, female law enforcement officers are also a lot more likely to be assaulted than male officers — as the whole country saw in atlanta last week. Lott says: 'increasing the number of female officers by 1 percentage point appears to increase the number of assaults on police by 15 percent to 19 percent."
"of course there are many explanations for why female cops are more likely to be assaulted and to accidentally shoot people, such as that our patriarchal society encourages girls to play with dolls. but we must also consider the fact that women are smaller and weaker than men.
"in a study of public safety officers, female officers were found to have 32 percent to 56 percent less upper body strength and 18 percent to 45 percent less lower body strength than male officers. (But their outfits were 43 percent more coordinated.) Here's the cite! Frank J. Landy, "alternatives to chronological age in determining standards of suitability for public safety jobs," technical report, vol. 1, jan. 31, 1992.
"another study I've devised involves asking a woman to open a jar of pickles.
"tellingly, feminists insist that strength tests be watered down so that women can pass them. feminists simultaneously demand that no one suggest women are not as strong as men and then turn around and require that all the strength tests be changed.
"it's one thing to waste everyone's time by allowing women to try out for police and fire departments under the same tests given to men. it's quite another to require the tests to be brawned-down so no one ever has to tell Harvard professors that women aren't as strong as men.
"acknowledging reality wouldn't be all bad for women. for one thing, they won't have to confront violent felons on methamphetamine. so that's a benefit right there. also, while a sane world would not employ 5-foot-tall grandmothers as law enforcement officers, a sane world would also not give full body-cavity searches to 5-foot-tall grandmothers at airports."

For the same reason women cannot compete in men's sports and men(or male trannies)should not compete in women's sports...that is your answer.
