Story here. Excerpt:

'Baghdad, Iraq (CNN) -- At least 41 people were killed and 106 others wounded Monday in a suicide bombing that targeted Shiite pilgrims in northeastern Baghdad, Iraq's Interior Ministry said.

The female bomber detonated her explosive vest in the middle of a procession of pilgrims in Boob al-Sham, in a predominantly Shiite area of the Iraqi capital, according to an Interior Ministry official.

The detonation took place in a tent set up to search females, according to the Baghdad Operations Command. Three volunteer female searchers were among those killed.

The attack took place amid tight security as thousands of Shiite worshipers are making their way to the holy city of Karbala, south of Baghdad, to mark the Arbaeen -- the end of the 40-day mourning period at the close of Ashura.'

... that the idea that someone can commit a murder(?)*-suicide and be female at the same time is not only possible but can actually be routine in its nature, the way a male murder-suicide bomber can be a routine occurrence. It just has to happen often enough.

This is not the first time a female murder-suicide bomber has struck not just in Baghdad, but indeed anyplace that such an event can or would happen. People who think women cannot or would not "do such a thing" are simply in denial over the violent nature not merely of women but if the human race generally, and are also apparently not bothering to read the news (esp. the news here on MANN!).

Historically when there is killing to be done, humanity has wanted to see men do it, due possibly to our particular path of social and physical evolution. We have come for whatever reasons to expect it (ie, violence being a 'male purview'- well, only in a limited scope, anyway) and are more comfortable with it as such. But one need only watch a nature special to see how fast a lioness will kill a marauding hyena or some prey animal to feed her cubs, or will not hesitate to go 12 rounds with *any* other animal within or outside her species if she feels a need to.

Not to anthropomorphise lions to humans, I am merely pointing out that it happens to be a matter of necessity, or of tradition, or of circumstance, that decides what sub-set of a species, based on sex, place of birth, employment, or other factors, that determines which members of the species are "allowed" to be violent and in what way, or for whom it is acceptable for them to use it to get their way.

It has now become acceptable among some of the inhabitants of the middle east for women to do things like what has been reported here. In the past, it wasn't acceptable for men, either. But after a long time in a combat zone, people begin to see things differently. It went from being unacceptable entirely to being acceptable for men to now being acceptable for women. So this shows that the feminists' assertions that men are inherently violent or dangerous creatures are the hogwash we always knew they were. But despite feminists' 1960s assertions that such roles as politician and police officer are a society-designated sex role position and can and should be undone, they will still to this day insist that men are "the violent sex" and so must by any means that works be reigned in and controlled. They look upon such cases as this female murder-suicide bomber as examples of something, *anything*, other than what it is. Same is true for the public in general. Nymphotropism knows NO limits.

*I put the asterisk there because it is hard to find a name for such patently insane behavior. Even the MSM has struggled with this issue. Whatever you choose to call it, you know what it is when you see it; the parts of bodies lying in streets and blood and guts splattered all over broken windshields says all that needs to be said.
