If you would like we could, we could discuss Heinlein offline. I am a big
fan of his works (there are a couple I don't particularly care for but love
most of them) and female to boot. I've never found his attitude odd. By
the way, in "Starship Troopers" anyone who serves, male, female, typical,
handicapped, you name it, earns the vote.
