No problem. Just drop the standards.

You know that these first women were handpicked to be the best of the best. If they can’t make it through the first round, chances are very few if any women will be able to make it.

I know the feminists don’t want to hear it, but there are actual physical differences between men and women. Women in general are not as strong in the upper body as men and I’m guessing that is where most of them failed.

it says none made it though first round and then some made it through first tests? don’t understand.

I hope Cruz is in office before standards get lowered.

Don’t want any men OR women dying because of PC stuff

I was not in the military. Tried to enlist with national guard in NYC day after 9/11 but at 250 they said no.

It would be great to know what the guys who have served think.

That’s just what America needs - a Battle-Axe battalion to march alongside of our new Homo battalions and Trannie battalions.

Obama spin:

8 women failed to make it past first round vs 101 men = men are almost 13 times more likely to fail than women in the Ranger program. Thus, we need more women in the Rangers.

.

How many men moved on?

We know 8 women failed vs 101 men.

We know that ZERO women passed. But what was the number of men who passed?

Political correctness cannot make up for biology. Women are built different than men. Look at the Olympics...women do not equal or exceed men’s records in sports like weight lifting or even in swimming. To think that women will pass the physical rigors of Ranger training when only a small fraction of men can meet the test is lunacy.

I believe that 300 rounds of 5.56 weighs about 7-8 pounds.

And a gallon of water weighs about 8.5 pounds.

It doesn’t matter that all the females did not make it to the next phase.

What matters is that they were there.

The Army leaders have already lost this fight. They lost it because of their arrogance.

Then By jiminy we've got to lower the standards.
Isn't that what this is all about?
The military equivalent of an Ivy League affirmative action degree?

Just heard through a male student in this class that not one of the females passed their leadership roles on patrols and that they couldn’t keep up in the swamps at Darby, creating extra effort on male students. Equipment that females were carrying had to routinely be passed to male students just so patrols could get to their objectives.
