Polling: Women want equal Access, but not equal Responsibilty.

It's not a one in a million woman, trust me there are many that are qualified.
Give it time.
The men complained, but why? Was it because the women weren't actually qualified or were the men just being brats and thought they were entitled to the work?

Because there are only so many shore duty billets and if the Navy continued to let women into that field, they would take them all up, leaving only sea duty billets open for men. We are generally on a x years at sea/x years on shore rotation in the navy, which is generally job dependent. If your job is mainly needed at sea, you have more years at sea with less years on shore duty. If there are fewer shore duty jobs, that means you are spending more years at sea. It really wasn't fair. Now, women are allowed on aircraft carriers and even submarines, so it doesn't matter if women are in that job because they are on the same sea/shore rotation as men.
