The only way Danny will ever approve of his daughter emulating Demi Moore.

Yay! That's fantastic! It's about time.

on a related note: when I was a kid I wanted to go (at age 18) into the navy (as a medic) and serve on a submarine. I was constantly told: A: "Why would you WANT to do that?" and B: "Women aren't allowed to serve on subs." So I let my family talk me out of my dream. I still wish I could have served on a sub as a medic. Now that women CAN serve on them, I'm too old. Oh well. I'm very happy that women are finally now able to serve on subs, and now become SEALS!
