“Women, in general, are better marksmen than men. Lots of research that bears this out”

Except for the MIT of marksmanship, the US Marines. They conducted a detailed careful study this year. Women were much worse.
And despite all the feel good stories about women having no bad habits to unlearn, and Soviet sniper women, etc, ad nauseum.... it is silly to pretend woman in general are better marksmen, they are not.
They do not dominate Camp Perry or and Practical Pistol competitions. They do not dominate 3 gun matches.

I think that Barak Obama’s two daughters, Malia and Sasha, should be the first two young women to volunteer for combat duty in today’s progressive military. They are healthy and strong. Barak should encourage them to join the Army and lace up those combat boots and be sent to a war zone, like maybe Syria or Afghanistan. Don’t you agree?

Just about everything thrown at us about women in combat is a false narrative. There is no reason for a woman to be in a combat front line unless she will be used as a distraction and fodder for the ones that are to really take or hold the objective. Blacks during the Civil War were used by the North in that manner in multiple battles and thereby used up the enemies ammunition.

In terms of marksmanship a reasonable comparison could occur after folks humped it through the brush for a few days with constant rain so they couldn’t sleep at night. It would also help if they stayed out long enough for some critters and plants to begin eating at their privates.

Thank you.
