Sorry, girls. But do not worry, girls; in no way does this difference mean that we like you less! Not at all! Girls, we like you a lot — understatement of the past 4 billion years!

We like your spotlessly clean ponytail, white socks and shoes, drop dead gorgeous, pretty party dresses, absurdly full skirts, of shear, pastel, floral print tied up with satin ribbons and bows, with you cared about, cared for, taken care of, cherished, treasured, protected, supported, and loved, and no way do we want you in the mud, dirt, sand, ice, snow, dirty water, snakes, lizards, and insects taking incoming. No way.

And we don’t want you on the football field either — on the first play you will likely land in the nickel seats seriously injured — we don’t want that.

(6) Let’s have some playoffs:

NBA All Stars versus WNBA All Stars

Men’s Wimbledon Singles Champion versus Women’s Wimbledon Singles Champion

(7) Likely best response: F’get about it. Obama has his headline, and IMHO that’s all he wanted. History shows that soon, likely already, Obama will f’get about it, and likely so will Sec Def and Sec Navy, and so should the Chair of the JCS and the Marine Corps.

It’s called “politics”.

For why? The woman’s vote? I can’t believe that. E.g., the women are not rushing to try out for the NFL or NBA or compete against men in the Olympics or college sports. Sure, maybe some girl in grade school or middle school has a chance to compete with the boys, but not for long after the boys start to shave.

Obama has other reasons as in there are some things that don’t make sense that we don’t understand. There stand to be some tell-all books in 2017.

For now, the damage is mostly limited just to headlines.

All those Obama headlines are really just public self abuse.

Sure, it’s not just politics but based in part on political correctness (PC).

So, that PC foundation in our culture is partly what Obama is exploiting.

The relevant part of PC is that men and women are equal. No one with any sense at all really believes this equality stuff in any literal sense, e.g., the sense that Obama is trying to exploit, but a lot of women are slow to see why they should not be regarded as equal. And while such women are trying to get the details of where men and women are and are not equal, Obama, and Hillary, can exploit those women.

And too many women are hurting because of where they traditionally have had different career paths and made less money; the money is important; a lot of women are very short on money.

There are suggestions, e.g., from E. Fromm, The Art of Loving, that this stuff about equal came into Western Civilization, say, as PC, from the French Revolution where any difference was regarded as a threat of tyranny.

So, we got PC, and Obama exploits it.

So, again, and quite generally, PC is a way to slow people from looking at reality and, net, one heck of a good way to sabotage the strength of the US as if some really clever Soviet Communist planted the PC notion to weaken the US.

A challenge is that it is really difficult to stand before 1000 woman and try to be clear on any way at all that men and women are different at all. Any such hint will result in high pitched screams of outrage.

So, as a country, and in picking good leadership, what do we do about that that PC stuff? We be well informed, wise, prudent, thoughtful, and careful.

In particular, we let Obama have his silly headlines where he publicly abuses himself.

Actually in this case, Obama won’t be making any progress in the politics. Why? Because 99 44/100% of women know very, very well — as they have known since middle school when they wanted to be football cheerleaders and definitely not football players, when some of the toughest guys in school the girls were terrified of joined the Marines — that for some jobs, especially the Marines, men are much better suited than women.

So, net, such women — 99 44/100% of women, no matter what their interests in equality in various respects — will regard Obama as a wimp, wuss, irresponsible, unmanly, incompetent idiot who is far too just plain stupid to understand even Women 101 and is on the way to leaving the US, and women, much less secure. Uh, one of the things women want most from men is security.

So, what is Obama doing? Not politics; not even Obama is that dumb. Instead, in his last year, Obama is trying to do all he can to “fundamentally transform” the US. And for what goals? Not equality for women. And not even for more votes for the Democrats. But for a good answer, there are some things we don’t understand. I suspect we will understand quite clearly from some bluntly written tell-all books in about 2017.

The Sec Navy had directed the Commandant of the US Marines to “get with the program” of integrating women into combat arms even though the Marines conducted a three year study and experiment that concluded it was inadvisable and would negatively impact unit cohesion, their combat mission, and encourage heavier casualties.

No sale with Pres Obama, Sec Def, Sec Navy!

Sec Navy sens a memo and says, “…report back to me every three months on this important policy initiative.”

Not smart.
