Fully agree. My sister has worked as a school teacher for more than twenty years (closing in on thirty). And teaching is a bloody tough job here in Singapore.

I don't think I ever said anything to the effect that women are wimps and can only do secretarial jobs etc. I just said that personally I find the idea of tomboy amazons disagreeable.
