I can blame part of the "one woman army" thing on Greg Pak's recent issue of the BSG comic, and the fact that, in their society, gender is equal. So, Dee? Doesn't need a man anymore than, say, some random marine guy needs a chick to save his ass. It's all equal.

And Dee might be a tiny little woman, but she's a soldier, and it may've been a long time since her basic training, but she's a survivor, too.

Er. In conclusion, BSG women are damned cool.

And thank you. =)
