Something just occured to be about helms Deep. In Edoras, Eowyn says that their women learnt long ago that those without swords can still die upon them. so from this, we get that all women of Rohan can effectivly use a sword and fight, right?<P>So why, at Helms deep, did the women send their children and husbands to fight, while they hid in the caves? Surly if they could fight, they would to be out their? Are they afraid that they will break a nail or something?
