Sexism is involved here. You're saying it's a serious thing and thus there is no room for equality. This implication here is that woman are less able to do this 'serious thing'. It is a serious thing but women are more than capable of doing it. If a soldier cannot control themselves in battle then they have no business being a soldier, it is they and not the object of their affection (i.e 'the bird') who is at fault.
