I have no objection to women serving in the military. I don't even object to women serving in combat, or in any other military role - as long as they are required to meet the exact same standards as male personnel in the same role.

Equality should MEAN actual equality.

Demanding, or even accepting, different standards of qualification for female personnel than those required for male personnel is a defacto admission that they are not equal and therefore are not eligible to be treated equally.

Totally agree. And as an earlier poster said, let’s take this “equality” all the way to its logical conclusion (not that logic matters in the world of the left) and make women sign up for the draft. Equal means equal, not equal when it benefits women but unequal when it doesn’t. BTW, why aren’t more of these feminists clamoring for equality in the number of ditch diggers and garnbage collectors?
