Actually, the other project I would use such a library for is coded in C++, not C like UFO:AI.
(My fault, I didn't mention that.)
Valaska:
That US Army study was Bull swear word, like most US army "research" such as on dragon scale, the XM8 etc, complete and utter crap from incompetent half wits. Take your info from the Marines, who actually value a soldier regardless of gender, women can ignore pain easier and have a higher tolerance for general combat fatigue.
That and most the women in the military have been fighting their entire life so the average Joe Shmoe that joins up has to work up for a few years just to get up to their level. Ex military here, a female soldier is just as good as a male soldier, and don't give me this "Women should be weaker" bull. Its complete crap, maybe city girls or glam girls sure, but these are soldiers trained to the SAME standards as their male counterparts.
Kiashu:
It is indeed unrealistic.
And realism is very important in a game about fighting an invasion of psychic aliens with lasers and plasma grenades and faster-than-light travel.
Or you could just, you know, play the damned game.
homunculus:
there has been some progress in medicine and switching gender is a lot easier, so you do not know which soldier was born male or female.
so it does not matter if male and female soldier stats should be the same or not.
how long have you lived without switching gender? boring, isn't it?

some people just cant make up thier minds.
But physiologically, men devlop muscle mass faster than women, among other things, thanks to the whole hormone thing (Testosterone vs Estrogen), so when someone says "Female soldiers should be the same as male soldiers! FLAME FLAME FLAME", I say "No. Science, current real science, says no. Go cry now.", and training to same standards does not mean that they will reach the same standards. Development differes on more than just gender.
Not sexist, just get tired of these kinds of arguments
