“I wouldn’t go quite that far but I agree that there are officer roles not suited for women but there are some they are well suited for.”
After a man spends a long time at the tip of the spear, he needs some time to decompress. The job he needs then is the one that women are suited for, and he can’t get his decompression time because a woman is in that job.
I see your point however that seems more of a management problem to me. I don't see officer duty assignments as a zero sum game.
Disclaimer: I have no firsthand experience in the area. I have friends that are and have been officers so I must defer to the expertise of those in the trenches and I thank them for their selfless service.
Wow, another very good point.
