So you think that women are just as meant for the military as men? Are women meant to be in the workforce just as much as men as well?
Watch out being against a woman like Isabel of Spain. She played for keeps.

Joan stated that she carried her banner in battle and had never killed anyone,[44] preferring her banner "forty times" better than a sword;[45] and the army was always directly commanded by a nobleman, such as the Duke of Alençon for example.

So perhaps we can just say joan was really only like a cheerleader.  That will fix all those butch woman wanting to take up arms.  Tell them they are better suited for pom poms.

This theory does seem to make a lot of sense, as it seems to be in agreement with the natural order.

Nooseph - conveniently, I was as well recently thinking about the possible complication that St. Joan of arc presents and that you described(joan being an ace in the hole for feminists).  But, as I read about her life the other day, I don't think so, and I think she is quite amazing.  It is somewhat mysterious, and likely way over the head of feminists and beyond the scope of this keyboard.  But, the "math" does add up imo concerning St. Joan.  

And, if anyone digs a bit deeper, they will find that St. Joan is not promoting what we see going on in modern female society.  

I suggest that you thoroughly familiarize yourself with St. Joan(buy the authoritative/traditional text(s) on her life) and when that conversation comes up with feminists, you can in all charity accurately explain who she was and why she is exalted by God.  I think you ought to develop a devotion to St. Joan in order to strengthen your arguments.  Because, I don't disagree with them, and I don't think St. Joan would either.  Remember, she did all of this because of supernatural visions.  If the visions had not been, she would have been at home spinning if I recall correctly.
