I really like the way you put that... That makes total sense.. Because there are some women that are capable or even way more than capable, and want to do it. So why not?Why not let them use their life for our country

We had a general rule in my time in that I'm sure still holds true of split tails in the army. Either nympho or bull dyke.

I'm all for women in the infantry. As long as they are held to the same standards as the men. And they are not! Their standards for the APFT were/are lower than the mens. Example, when I was in the army, they had to do less push ups, less sit ups, and didn't have to run as fast on the 2 mile to score the same as the men. Same standards, sure have at it.

Women cant Carry as much weight so someone else ends up packing more, a woman will have a much harder time geting a 200 lb wounded man with 80 lb of kit on him to safty.

Young men and women bad combo. Short amount of time and there will be sexual relationships jealous and poor unit cohesion. Men respond differently to a woman blown apart than a man as well.

Women make great snipers and some would give some of guys a run for their money but typically its a bad idea to have them in combat..




I agree with every thing you've said. We need women in the military, just not in combat for all the reasons you've stated.


When you're 20 and drop something you pick it up. When you're 80 you decide you don't need it anymore.

Guy I work with was a medic. Said a lot of women end up with hip and other factors doing basic things.

Men and women have different bone density, lung capacity and muscle mass. We are build different for different purposes. One is not better than the other two parts of the system. Is there some overlap yes. Can some men do typically feminine things better and some women out do some men bot at limited task yes.

Like it or not break it down to basic biology. Women are more valuable to the species. Men are expendable.. eggs are expensive sperms is cheap. A single man can father hundreds of children in a short time. Ladies are limited to what 12 to 13 in a life time with hard toll on their bodies.

Anyone with comom since wants to protect women and provide safety and comfort to them. It should be ingrained in any and every man's DNA. Not becuse women are not capable but DNA thats part of a man's job and we are purposes built for it. I guess its no surprise in our time of weak soy boy simps so many would think women in combat would be a good idea.


How about logistical sanitation issues and a 28 day ever changing hormone cycle in the field. Mots guys I meet that were in the service that thought it was a good idea were in motorized units doing very little to nothing walking or packing for extended missions. And even they eventually agreed after sone conversation combat is better for men.


And like someone above said women in the mil general fall into 2 camps i will add a 3rd . Very friendly with the boys a low level mid female gets the attent of a 10 with limited supply of women and lots of young men. Man hating dike/ feminist and/or ball busting career soldier with chip on her with a need to prove they got to their position on merit not DEI or sleeping with the right people.

Why are women's feet ,smaller than men's feet ?

Ans....So that they can stand closer to the sink


It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

There were women in the Army back in 1976 already. Some of them took Basic Training at Fort Knox alongside but separate from the men. Their program was much easier than ours was.


Eh...wot?

The number of women that could be effective and not a liability in front line combat is next to zero.

If equality is what is wanted then that is what should be given. Exact same PT requirements. Exact same rescue requirements. Exact same carrying requirements.

There are an extreme few women who could meet that standard. If they can, they can go to front line combat. If not, they can serve in other roles just as important.

I can carry or drag a 140lb woman. Next to none can carry or drag a 215 lb man.


How many lies will people believe before they realize their own idiocy?

Yes the IDF is coed combat



However, the IDF reports that 1 out of 5 women have reported some sort of sexual assault or harassment.

Terrible idea IMO.

Remember the resources spent to rescue Jessica Lynch

Irrelevant pregnant belly keeps them further away than larger feet would. Now bare feet alows them to feel the floor and have better balance than wearing shoes.

White 17, said it right. I'm old school grunt, 69/72 LRRP 5th BN. Never served with women, but have spoken to few in VA, & most said sexual harrassment. My thought, BE CAREFULL WHAT YOU ASK FOR, COMBAT ISN'T A GAME YOU PLAY, BULLETS, SHRAPNEL, DON'T CARE WHO THEY PENETRATE. My team depended on each member, no excuses, mistakes you came out in body bags. If women, can pass the training ( no short cuts) I took, got no problem. Not being smart A$%, If you can't , maybe flying planes is better, humping the bush, packing 70 lbs., isn't for lot of males either.
