| Message | Lets be honest and look at research. Research proves that men are more physical fit than woman, and during war times it is important for the country to have stabile birthcontrol, and a supportive "home nest" for our warriors. This isnt about feminism, but realism. |

| Message | Arming large numbers of male idiots with guns and training them how to kill each other is not a smart thing for the governments of Terra to be doing, but they are doing it anyway. Ideally we would like a world without any armies, but failing this, an all-women army would be much more competent and effective, being far less likely to trigger escalations in conflict. The proposal we are putting forward is very modest and represents only a small part of our long-term ambitions. |
