I wonder how many people will die so she can be part of that Department? She obviously isn’t physically capable enough to pass even the drastically low bar women have to get over to join a FD, so how on earth will she actually do the job? She won’t be able to pull the big 2 1/2” hoses, much less run one, and for certain won’t be able to evacuate an injured human from a burning structure. She’ll just be in the way, and her weakness may well cost someone their life, either a victim she’s unable to rescue, or a fellow firefighter that she is unable to properly back up.
This is the same problem that women in the military face. In the appropriate garrison job, or other noncom duty, they’re not really any worse than a man, and even some of the heavier-duty tasks like mechanic can be overcome with little accommodation. However, in even a peripherally-combat situation like being in a FOB that gets overrun, most are going to be a hazard to their male peers, unable to drag a wounded squadmate out of the line of fire, or even to operate a heavy crew-served weapon.
The only time I want that person beside me is when we're running from a bear, then I'm going to trip them... Just kidding!
