Hi.
You need to look at the age of the person 25 years ago and those who know my background and some here know a little aboutmy self , any way . I was with the Fire service and we trained as a team of 4 and with 4 teams most times I would be first at the station most of us had jobs and worked for the NZR railways ,
I was very strong and could lift a guy and come down a ladder say some 40 feet high and this is needed or be on a branch fire hose a strong flow of water coming out and carry hose,s as needed , would I do it now no of cause not I'm 68 +
So you see what ever you do think about it do you have the strength to carry it out , now I know some women would out do myself as they are a lot younger , yet I'm still very strong as a female yet I know how far I can go, .
or could you work with me on a building site and lift heavy timbers = lumber , or dig trenchs all day, this is my work world , so could be different for some women , or climb on bridges and work on them again heights could be an issue , say 7 sec,s drop or 5 maybe , different when your on the bridge looking down then have to climb down ,
I took Jos with me to work on a day many years ago we have 16 bridges and I worked on every one , I know for a fact Jos would never have worked on them let alone climb on them , so not every woman could even think of doing that , and don't for get many men would not ether ,
