We already heard from the women decades ago. The Fire Department made one sideways passageway in the test so narrow that women couldn’t get through. There was actually a guy who died taking the test because they tried so hard to design it to exclude the women.

I’m glad that battle seems to be over and my firefighters are men.

That isn’t by chance an urban myth is it? Seems making something ‘narrow’ would leave out men - not women.
