Thanks for the reply, Nigel. I don't think it's possible for feminists to be consistent in ideology or in picking targets because their entire social movement is one inconsistent with reality that boils down to nothing but grievances (mostly petty), guilt-tripping men (and nonconforming women), and power grabs.

I find the reduction of fitness standards for military, police and fire personnel particularly troubling. If feminists cared about the safety of the women (even if not caring about the men & kids), one would think they'd want the most effective people doing such jobs. But no, they'd rather have degraded protection so that a few women can burnish their egos by being able to say they're cops or soldiers or fire fighters.

I think you might find interesting some info I found about social workers. In the past few years, the US Defund-the-Police movement has had an auxiliary - the replace cops with social workers movement. They act as if cops don't have the training and ability to talk someone down during a fraught situation, and only social workers can do such a job. The first thing that surprised me was that this kind of nonsense has been going on for over a century. Academics and social workers claim social workers would be especially adept at preventing people from resorting to crime (they never explain what methods they'd use that policemen couldn't). The second thing I found was that, writing & talking among themselves, social workers are fully aware of the potential for violence. One example - political agitation in several US states and at the federal level for sentencing enhancements for attacking or killing social workers (similar to a "hate crime" enhancement). Also, I saw an essay from a social workers' magazine suggesting social workers remove items from their offices that might be useful as weapons (heavy brick-a-brack, letter openers, etc), keep doors open, and take other safety measures. These people clearly do not believe that they have the magical powers to prevent violence and crime that they want the public to believe in.
