I still find it odd that whole segments of the population are
expected to change their names when they grow up. If half the women
changed their names and half the men changed their names, that would
seem equal, but that's usually not what happens.
Even though getting young, healthy women to pass Ranger School is an interesting development, there is still a massive psychological underhaul a lot of people have to go through.
Was there a feminist curriculum in schools when I was growing up? No there was not.
