This is really stupid, the percent of the female population that can hump 80-100 pound packs over rugged terrain is so small as to be insignificant. This whole thing is preposterous. The World has gone insane....You know the physical standards will be changed...

I agree. Males, even ones that are short or slight of build, have the bone structure and innate musculature that can be trained up and built up to do it, women simply don’t. Putting women through the same physical regimens as men in training results in a far higher risk of injury to the lower extremities, that has been amply demonstrated.

It is crazy. But to point out this reality as the paragraph above does is sure to make some people think you don’t respect women or what they ARE capable of.
