But there is a ring of truth in it. There are men who would treat women in the combat zone as fragile creatures who need protection.
It's not about a sexual distraction, in my opinion. It's about some men thinking they have to go out of their way to 'protect' women in a combat area instead of giving them the same level of respect they would other men.
Insulting?? yes..but it is true. Sexism manifests itself in many ways and this sort of benevolent sexism is one of them.
This article and the majority of comments completely went haywire on something Santorum never said. I am no fan of the man, but nowhere in this article does he say "Women are too emotional". What I get from his quotes is that men may get over protective and let their emotions regarding women affect their judgment.
Yeah, I know non choreographed fights are not camera friendly. I spent my youth in the New York hardcore punk scene brawling away my weekends, I was also a bouncer and I studied Iai-do and Kenjutsu for a while. We had Ninjustu practitioners visit the Dojo....trust me on this one..while the instructor *may* be legit, what these students are demonstrating is a joke. Watching true ninjutsu practitioners is breathtaking, they really do have the balance of a cat.
I thought I'd see actual ninjustsu. What I saw were acrobats and people who watched way too many movies.
Holy shit!!! I remember seeing this movie as a teenager as part of a double feature. It was paired with 'Two for the road'. The opening music was stuck in my head for weeks.
Now, over twenty years later, I get to relive it.
These people are not *from* Manhattan or Brooklyn. They recently moved there.
It doesn't sound that way at all. You're just doing an incredible job of judging and projecting.
Okay, I know that this is for shit and giggles, but that type of music is NOT hardcore. This is what scene kids claim is hardcore. Bad metal riffs, cliched 'breakdowns', and silly scenesters practicing their kungfu moves in the pit.
Hardcore is short for hardcore punk. Go listen to early Bad Brains, Youth of Today, the first three Agnostic Front albums, Black Flag..*that* is hardcore.

Hell yeah!!! After reading the article, I was thinking of posting this very clip! To this day, one of my friends and I still quote this scene.
That actor went on to play the awesome Bill Buchanan on '24'.
You're thinking of the character Ares. The actor, whose name I cannot recall, unfortunately fell to his death on the set of a movie one year after Xena wrapped.
That's pretty cool and .... Hey!!! Where the hell did all of these humpback whales come from??
Gotta say that after a side by side try of both, the iPad is much more fluid and responsive to me.
The thing about this poll is that more than likely people will vote for the tablet they own. Unlike the software based polls, not many people can actually afford multiple tablets.
The F-35 is even more problem plagued than the F-22!
Not quite correct. The T-34 had the advantage of sloped armor, better winter performance, a fuel supply that was not disrupted and driven by troops who were prepared for the winter and not half starved.
