That's just it, if their physical strength and health allows them and if it does not have any physical damage or strain on their body then they can go ahead with it. People tend to classify jobs as one ment for female and the other for male. But anyone can do anything.Its not true in all areas,but I have seen women do bricklaying and carpentry.Actually anyone can do anything be it male or female if they put their mind to it and if their health permits them.
