I saw that the thread made front page earlier and tried to read a bit, but was ultimately forced to go handle business before getting to comment. While I was busy I tried to explain the recent tranch update to my partner, who occasionally gets tidbits of tranch gossip from me.
I wound up asking a question I thought the Kiwis might want to take a crack at (he had no answer).
Has there ever been an all female paramilitary group?
Like, I know there's that one all women group in India that hunts down rapists and wife-beaters to threaten them with sticks, but since sticks are their best weapons I can't really consider them 'paramilitary' (no guns). I know there are a few militaries in various countries that have had all women divisions (Russia had the all women pilots group in WWII), but that's not paramilitary. It's just regular military.
So, do any Kiwis know? Has there ever been an all female paramilitary group, or are the tranchers proving they're really men by virtue of their LARP?
