...’bravery’ is an individual specific thing, not a gender specific thing..I don’t think, Parmy...the contrast of an ‘instinct’ of Arnaud Beltrame..to those ‘instincts’ felt of ‘self preservation’ in the criticism received by Scot Peterson in the recent Florida attack...?...they are both males, they both acted in ‘instinct’ and complete contrast in that instinct, we could say..?...


...in the Florida attack, there were female staff whose reaction showed an instinct to protect above all else, above any ‘self-preservation’...as in Dunblane as well ...one ‘bravery’ was posthumous if I recall...but many acts of bravery that day shown by females..?...yeah, I think it’s completely an ‘individual’ thing...with that individual not even realising how their reaction will be...until..and with no thought...

I have to agree with all that...i just couldnt think of many incidents where the news channels have had a womans face on the screen when mentioning bravery.

Glad you have pointed out a few for me to read up on.
