Valentina Shevchenko fires back at Khabib's comments on women in MMA

"Every person in life has a mission. For a man, it's to raise children, take care of the family, take care of loved ones, neighbors, relatives. There are very few women who take on big responsibilities; it's very hard for them. It's not without reason. Even God created it that way: a woman is weaker, a man is stronger."

"Women are weak?! Tell that to my sister-an airline captain. Or tell it to the 'Night Witches' the all-female bomber regiment of World War II, who dropped bombs under the cover of darkness with their engines off, then landed in pitch blackness without landing lights."

Khabib Nurmagomedov expresses a belief that women are weaker than men and should adhere to traditional gender roles. He emphasizes men's responsibilities in family and society. Valentina Shevchenko counters this perspective, highlighting women's achievements and capabilities in martial arts and beyond. She argues that upbringing influences strength and capability, challenging the notion of inherent gender weaknesses. She cites examples of strong women, including her sister and historical figures, to illustrate her point that strength is not determined by gender.
