In combat.

Democrats want to send women to combat, it’s really sick.

That's what being equal means.

If you think a woman is equal to a man in combat, you are mistaken. - a female Vet who was attached to both Infantry and Armor units in combat.

We aren’t. At all. We put people in danger and don’t have the physical strength to be effective in combat. There are jobs in the military women can be effective at, but fighting in combat is not one of them.

Another woman veteran who agrees. People just don’t understand what the military asks of you haven’t served. While “in combat” is a loose term because all military members could be in a combat situation when deployed, in any job, there are certain jobs in the military that should be closed to women for the benefit of everyone. But there are many fields within the military where women are effective and do the job well. Men and women aren’t equal. We just aren’t.

I am genuinely curious why you think a person's sex, rather than their physical ability, should be the deciding factor. I'll concede there may be jobs that are so physically strenuous that a woman can't do it. But why does that mean you have to ban women from doing it? Shouldn't you just test/train/sort for the required physical requirements, and if it's only men who qualify that's fine?

You are thinking logically and I agree. I feel bad for the women talking about how their presumably disappointing personal performances in combat have led to a strong opinion against the performance of “all women” in combat roles and operations.

There are many other women who have been successful in both direct and indirect combat roles and operations and do not look back on their deployments as anecdotes against women serving in combat roles.

You will never see a woman fighting in any Muslim army. Republicans need to admit they have more in common with the Taliban than the Biden administration.

Early Islam had a number of acclaimed female warriors. Looking at Western history, I can think of only Joan of Arc. Maybe there are others.

DP... this is not relevant.

Early Islam also had wine and song. You will no longer find those in Taliban Afghanistan. That is not the Islam of today, where women aren't even allowed to wear what they want or to go outside without covering their heads.

Whose fault is that? That’s our fault. We funded the right winger Incels/Taliban because we didn’t want Afghanistan to fall into the socialism and secular communism they were already falling into just like all the stan countries (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan)

The Us Cold War policy of containment was an epic fail. All we did was support right wing military juntas worldwide from Latin America to Africa to Asia. Instead of allowing them to have socialism over there, we prefer they come over here to the Western world where socialism is acceptable and a driver to the middle class.

Look at Afghanistan in the 70s to it now.

We created the problems by giving the extremist Incels all the power and now the chickens may come home to rose and it will happen over here. Don’t think it can’t because when right winger men take all the levers of control, society quickly falls in line and we see that even now with Trump. Feminism and diversity and liberalism will be completely repudiated and denounced and changes are coming including Christian nationalism and an anti feminism movement

Seems like a really bad move and a slap in the face of military rank.

Last year only Marines made their quota. This is why the dems were talking about bringing back draft. Do you want that? There is a huge morale problem not to mention veterans suicide. Hegseth has dedicated his life to helping veterans. He won the bronze star two times. He is a hero. He also understands war and will keep this in mind and look out for the troops. I predict he fixes the woke issues that are hurting morale. He is incredibly smart and will have what it takes to run a smooth and inclusive department.

Democrats outraged someone under age 70 is appointed to work in government.

Yes, that's him. Gross.

I went 4 months without a shower during my first deployment. I had one total shower during that deployment. One shower. Otherwise I had to save my bottled drinking water and try to clean myself occasionally.

If you think it’s gross to not wash your hands, avoid Military service. If you deploy, during a war, you won’t be able to wash your body and hair. You will be coated in filth 24/7.

So you don't wash your hands post deployment? I get it's not possible when you are deployed, but when you are the weekend host at FOX news and you brag you haven't washed your hands after taking a dump for ten years because "germs aren't real" think about how that type of person might govern the DOD.

Omg. He isn’t in the military anymore

And can we talk about why that isn’t reason enough to kick him out of the military?

Can we we revisit the post about him being taken off of Biden's inauguration guard because of extremism?

And when you are not deployed, do you rpefer to be coated in filth? I assume not, but maybe that's what you were trying to say.

No, I am trying to point out that the democrats posting here have a real problem with someone not washing their hands, and keep harping on about it.

The same women/democrats who insist women can serve in combat can’t contain their disgust about handwashing or the absence of it. Imagine them fighting in combat? With their dirty hands? Ewwww! Gross! Someone get me a handwipe, my gun is dirty!!

Why are you talking about combat? The guy takes a dump at Fox and doesn't wash his hands.

Really. MAGA are such snowflakes. Basic hygiene, man. Not hard.
