A look into training women in the fire service

News 6 reporter Carolina Cardona sheds light on what it takes to be a woman in the fire service.

[@ridm0985]

At the end of the day, I want to come out alive and I want my rescuer to come out alive!🤷‍♀️ I don't care if the firefighter is male, female, chicken, or a blobfish. Get me out of the burning building!

[@user-hf8zv7qw4l]

Males can do that not females.

[@user-wp8kz3ll8q]

Actually females can do that I have seen videos of women carrying men and women on their shoulders and putting out fires

[@user-wp8kz3ll8q]

But I agree the main concern would be to get out of that building 😂

Cool we will send children firefighters in if your aged parents and your children and family are caught in a raging fire, and need to be carried to safety from the 5th floor, since you dont care who the firefighters are.

When it comes to saving lives let us focus on finding people who are capable of doing the job. Men are on average stronger than women so the statistics make sense. However, women do have so much potential that was diminished during the patriarchy. I would honestly encourage women to put their effort into their strenghts, which is not necessarily physical but mental and maybe come up with inventions that would give them equal ability in the firefighting industry. Remember women, we do not compete with men we simply thrive to be the best versions of ourselves and work with them.

[@guardianangel4444]

Fun fact: the fifth strongest firefighter in the world is a woman called Sarah... I beilive strength is depend more than specific gender

[@danil9855]

Women do compete with men and I have heard stories where they prevail in physical activities. Specifically firefighter women competing with other firefighter men, yes.

[@watchingthecrazyworld7761]

@@frillylily8005 Many FDs throughout America lowered the testing standards as a result of POC complaining that the tests were racist as they failed at a higher rate. So between lowering standards for females and POC you no longer have your best. And if you are fine with that, then keep that same energy when they start doing the same for Airline pilots and times of war. Just make sure that you request a diverse pilot. Also 85% of firefighters are white, but racism isn't the reason that they have a higher percentage of FFs. You can argue nepotism though, however everyone passed the tests without crying foul. The number of POC can and will increase, but we should get the most capable and leave the lazy crybabies out.
