[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of women in the military in combat roles will be the same as lots of women entering any industry or job category.  The profession will become "feminized" and will lose status.  The more women overtake the military, the less the military will be seen as a desirable profession by males.

Does any serious person believe that a feminized military force will be an effective fighting force?  No, no one believes that.

The average amount of weight an infantryman has to carry is 91 pounds.   There are only a microscopic percentage of women who will ever be capable of that type of physical labor, no matter how much they train.

Women simply aren't capable of the job.[/quote]

Can you please explain what a "feminized" military force is?  Do they fight with doilies?

If only a microscopic percentage of women will ever meet the necessary standards for the infantry, so be it.  Only a microscopic percentage of the infantry will be women.  But there is no reason not to let them apply.  Tits don't get in the way of a gun.

And if we're going to have a draft, women and men should be eligible.[/quote]

The question is, will they keep the standards that high if only a microscopic number of women qualify?  I doubt it.

It will end up like this:  http://nypost.com/2015/11/22/struggling-firefighter-injured-after-just-10-days-into-new-job/[/quote]

Your example doesn't make sense.  That woman failed the physical exams but was allowed to graduate.  If the tests are necessary, then all soldiers should have to meet them.  Keep the standards as high as they need to be.  I have no problem with that.[/quote]
