It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

The mental part is of course bull-shit there are plenty of famous women racers, how ever, I have never heard of a female formula one driver. Is it even physically possible for a woman to do a full race in F1? According to what I understand it's ridiculously taxing on the body of the driver because of the g's.
Then again, there are female combat pilots.
Meh, I call bull-shit all around.
Yeah, the mental part is definite BS, and even the physical aspect honestly - people over-emphasize the differences in physical strength between the sexes.
Additionally, the "argument" presented is something along the lines of "we've had very few women drivers, but of the ones we have had, they barely score any points." Uh... well, maybe if you had more, you would see a bigger selection of point-winners??? DUH? Like, look at all the men drivers - plenty of them suck, but there's a much bigger pool of them, so then you're going to have a top 10 who are really good. So there's been a shit ton of men drivers who barely score any points too.
It's just. ARGH.
I think I read somewhere that female fighter pilots could handle more G-force because of their ...thighs? I don't know, can't remember. But I'm quite certain Sir Stirling is wrong.
Legalise drugs! And murder!

If I recall one reason female fighter pilots can their G-force better is because they tend to be shorter than their male counterparts - thus the distance between the heart and the brain is also shorter.

My cousin ran the race and finished a long while before the bombs went off. She's fine.

My fucking room mate stepped on my kindle and smashed the screen. While I'm in the middle of a David Gemmell novel. Cruel cruel world.

In most civilized countries this is a justifiable defence for defenestration.

I'm asking myself, where the hell was your roommate walking to step on your kindle?

It's funny you say that because my kindle was on my bed, and my best is right under our window. He had to climb through our window because he locked himself out, steps right down on my kindle screen.

Think I would have thrown him out of the window head first and closed the window behind him.
