This way, the politicians can say \u201cYes, you are equal to men, you can do everything they can do.\u00a0 Grrrrl power!\u201d\u00a0 Might be worth looking into for Army units.\u00a0 You notice they\u2019re not giving the girls any expensive equipment to operate and maintain, like their own aircraft carrier or submarine. \u00a0I suspect there\u2019s a reason for that.<\/p>\n

On the one hand – not so fast. \u00a0Norway’s military is already pretty gender-integrated. \u00a0Don’t be surprised if you see a female frigate commander sooner than later.<\/p>\n
On the other? \u00a0The Norwegians’ unit – a section of the Norwegian Army’s\u00a0Jegertroppen<\/em>, loosely translated as “Rangers” – is a special forces unit, roughly on part with the Airborne Rangers, and hauling a lot of expensive equipment around isn’t really part of the mission. \u00a0The stated mission – having female troops to deal with female Muslim suspects – isn’t entirely daft. And for the unstated, and these days probably tertiary, part of the mission, providing a guerilla cadre if Norway is every conquered again – it makes complete sense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Joe Doakes from Como Park emails: I\u2019m a pre-operative transgender woman.\u00a0 I demand entry into this unit so I can shower with young, blonde Norwegian women.\u00a0 It\u2019s my right.
