Legit I've never met a woman with a background in EOD, or even the slighest interest in it. What a bizarre program...

So I asked my wife: "Bae, did you ever consider a career digging up landmines?", and she said "What do you take me for?".
So I queried my wife again: "Do you know ANY girls who considered a career in Explosive Ordinance Disposal?". And she said "No".
So I said: "But Bae, your first school was on an actual military cantonment". She scoffed "You should have seen the girls there".
I remembered that I met a few guys in EOD during my service, and quite a few women NOT in EOD.
Zero overlap. My wife had the same experience, on a different continent.
Would you like to be the first? Duolingo has Ukrainian lessons. And you wont be taking any jobs away from actual Ukrainian women -

I actually legit did once meet a woman who worked in mine removal programs in Africa for the UN... I never asked if she physically did the mine removal work or just some related office stuff 🤔🤷🏽♀️
She's the one who told me that when the UN peacekeepers leave an area the UN leaves health clinics in its wake to treat all the new STDs the peacekeepers have spread around the community while there 🙄.
Respect to her either, its one of those jobs nobody wants to be around...
I wouldn't want to do it, but there's lots of jobs I wouldn't want to do, and plenty more that my womanly senses tell me I should avoid coz I'm a female and shouldn't be near. I don't understand the drive that some women seem to have to do stuff just because they're told not to. Take underground mining for example. If you're not strong enough to do the job, let alone help out of something goes very wrong, as it sometimes does in a dangerous environment, then you shouldn't be there. I imagine dealing with explosives would be along the same lines. Spending additional funds to try to convince women to do it seems stupid.
