I admit, one of the reasons I like that combat roles are being opened to women now is that it will not be something that can be neatly brushed under the rug and forgotten: it will be right in our culture's face. I look forward to the irreparable damage this will do to our culture's myths about women, like "a woman is peaceful and not violent" and "women, like children, are weak, passive victims and must be protected by men."
