        @BBCNews So many sexist pricks commenting. If women can pass the same tests as men then they should be given the opportunity!

        I understand in a physical fight for example, but with a ban he's not allowing any full potential to occur.

        If somebody is more than capable and qualified, then they should have equal opportunity regardless of gender.
