Women, however, have increasingly made it through the nine-week Ranger course with their score cards hidden and only after many tries with the last tries having lower standards.
Hyperfit women will be just as much a burden on the men as the sort of fit. Being hyperfit - whatever that actually means - does not increase their upper body strength, but is does vastly increase their military PC score, making them more attractive to the perfumed princes and princesses that run the Pentagon and the DOD.
However, even if and though some can operate on that level, is this practice what is right and best for society vs. the Biblical model? Women are forsaking what they are most uniquely designed to excel at, which is being mothers in a marriage.
A neighbor of mine (and owner of two apt. buildings) who is part Chinese and part Costa Rican (with a strong work ethic, legally working for decades and past 65) is the youngest of 18 kids, while his mother was one of 24. In contrast are the "yuppies" with 1.5 kids on average.
How do hyperfit women compare to the top 1% or top 5% of men? And if you do find the rare woman who can go through Army Ranger school with no modifications, what would her presence do to morale and cohesion?
The purpose of the military is to win and deter wars (break things, kill people.)
Secondary purpose: social unity through shared service, risk, and discipline. A good reason to integrate by race and class. Men and women have already figured out social interactions.
Tertiary purpose: make sure proportionate numbers of women, trans, minorities and the politically astute get to hop on the promotion track and retire with a general’s pension.
Of course, Sharon Stone silly.
Even bigger shame is they lie about it.
You can banish Aunt Flo with birth control pills. A tiny bit more kit to carry into the foxhole.
This is so totally wrong.
From start to finish.
Yeah. Like people have said in every war in the past. Only now we have lots of push-button warriors, so we won't need people on the ground.
The biblical model was to slaughter the men and take the women and children as slaves.
If you are going biblical, lets not kid ourselves about the brutality of war back them.
See Chode what I’m wondering is are these women who were born women or are women who were born men?
No, taking women as wives in one con text of conquests of enemies of Israel (and which was to be set free, not sold, if the husband no longer had delight in her: Deuteronomy 21:10-14) is not the Biblical model as regards the place of women in regards to men, except as reflecting the male being the head over the women.
If you are going biblical, lets not kid ourselves about the brutality of war back them.
Yes, though the nature of man has not changed, and war has been brutal in the last century, while by making it more antiseptic, including by the state executing capital criminals rather than by communal stoning, then we both become more efficient at it (able to destroy the whole world), while being unable to deal with the hardness life can bring.
I thought it was Demi Moore?
my guess is just some roided up dykes
I am so old I never watch re-runs, what do I know?
A neighbor gal of ours was a medic. She started off in a base in Iraq - but she said she ended up treating mostly the locals. She wanted to be helping our boys. She kept requesting to be put on patrols with them.
She finally got to go out on patrol. As a female medic she was important as she could help the local village women and children and show good will.
After that, she was always being requested by the squad leaders or whomever to be on patrols. Continuing into Afghanistan.
Her mom asked her once if it was dangerous. “Um mom - it’s Afghanistan!” But she did get her wish to treat wounded U.S. guys.
Her sister is currently a helicopter crew chief.
So what are men going to do about it?
