I've been told by the feminists that physical strength doesn't matter. They
can do anything a man can do. And the more arrogant ones will add "and do it
better" to the end of that sentence.

More to the point, it's a dangerous, grueling, often terrifying job and the
feminists seem to have no interest in doing it. They only want equality in
jobs where you sit behind desks in air conditioned buildings wearing the
latest in high fashion. When it comes to the jobs that undergird the
civilization that makes their pampered lives possible, they have no interest
in being fairly represented among the workforce. When was the last time you
saw a chick spreading hot asphalt on a stretch of highway in Arizona in the
summertime?
