Absolutely. I can really relate to what Mary Ann was talking about earlier, because at first people said if we're going to have women, that means we can't do this, this, or this, or there would be an environment in which people would think that because women were around, the world as we knew it before would change.
Bringing women along in police cars--and this has often been reported, and the partners I have worked with have reported this--did defuse a lot of situations that could have ended up as fight situations. Having a woman in the car makes the situation turn in a positive way, because I believe women communicate a bit better than men do and are able to defuse, as opposed to being aggressive to start with. When I was listening to Mary Ann, I thought, this is really close to policing.
