See, Robbie, you're using common sense and that has no place in today's world. What will happen, is that the standards will be lowered so the weaker sex (and us fatasses) can meet them. "I just dropped in my cube to make sure I could still do 27 push-ups. No problem. Did 30 just to make it a nice even number." Not even gonna try. I'd just embarass myself. Sad, how far the mighty fall. In my prime I benched 250, ran 1.5 miles under 10 minutes and did endless crunches. (I swear I'm not making it up) My grandfather, who is 80 and a retired Air Force pilot, fast walks 3 miles a day. You mentioned Magic 8's. Ever heard of the 8 Count Body Builder? “If they want to and are expected to perform the exact same physical jobs, they should have to pass the exact same physical standards as their male counterparts.”

There ya go Robbie, injecting common sense into the arguement. What will happen, in this here real world, is that the standards across the board will be lowered so that the weaker sex (and fatter slobs) can meet them "I just dropped in my cube to make sure I could still do 27 push-ups. No problem. Did 30 just to make it a nice even number." I'm ashamed to say I won't even try, because I know it'll be a disgrace. Keep it mind, I work a very physical job. I can move 500lb equipment racks and lift and tote 100lb boxes steel cable channel. Just can't push the floor away from my chest very well. Sad too, because back at my peak, about 14 years ago, I benched 250, ran 1.5 miles under 10 minutes and did crunches for fun. Ah, memories. Of course, that was after I failed my semi annual Navy physical and had my fat ass whipped back into shape by a former SEAL. You talked about Magic 8's? Ever done an 8 Count Body Builder? “If they want to and are expected to perform the exact same physical jobs, they should have to pass the exact same physical standards as their male counterparts.”
