The toughness of female Army Rangers does not surprise me. That these female individuals are the very first and it's 2015? Reminds me that no, the equality I expected to see by now has NOT happened yet. I'm glad we're on the road to equality as a culture and this is a good sign for it. I tend to focus on my energies with people for whom gender already doesn't matter as much... and I forget that the world that is NOT online changes FAR more slowly and I 'm grateful for those, like these individuals here, who are fighting the LONG, hard slow PAINFUL battle so that reality begins to match more closely to where it ought to have been all along.
