WillyPete, I think a large reason why these "because she's a woman" thing is because we've yet to have enough time to prove ourselves.
Men used to think that they were the only ones who could be good doctors, or even be capable of rational thought until women joined in despite the negativity the males gave.
Give us time to prove ourselves, and give yourselves time to smarten up. If a woman's in the army, she doesn't, or at least shouldn't, expect a man to take care of her.
