People are just not equal.
Phase II of the destruction of our military, following repeal of DADT. 0bama is creating this atmosphere as a means to drive down enlistments of its core constituency; the straight white male. Making the military so miserable for SWM’s that none will want to join. Weakening America and disenfranchising the WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protestant) male is 0bama’s goal.
I’ll never forget the double walls and such on the obstacle course at Annapolis. The shorter one was for the broads, the taller one was for the dudes. I’ll also never forget killing myself with the Halsey Hack to get a passing running score . . . that would have been an off the charts “A” if I was a broad and not a dude.
If these women get their wish, women will have to sign up for the draft as well. With Obama destroying the US military, the draft may become critical.
I would be for US Military “Gender Equality” if the US Military Females looked like this: http://www.google.com/search?q=idf+girls&hl=en&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=91e2UJT1K4689gTDn4HAAg&ved=0CCMQsAQ&biw=1920&bih=1030 AND could pass the Female IDF Basic Training.
How about equal opportunity for equal ability.
And, yes, ALL citizens should have to register for the draft, not just the males, that is blatantly discriminatory.
Men have to get their heads shaved in boot camp while women get to keep their hair any length they desire.
Comments from the link:Kevin, you make a valid point, but I don’t think it’s the same thing. Generally, the older you are, the higher ranked you are. The higher ranked you are, the less you are required to do most physical taskings. The age requirements make sense as long as they equal for men and women. In my opinion.Not unless he is recruited into a specialty which his background suits him for, and which doesn’t require heavy lifting. Old Sarge re-upped after 911, and I don’t know that he was in shape to meet the standards for an 18-yo Private when he went back in. But he had experience which the Army obviously valued.Kevin says: So, should the military enlist a 35 year old male recruit who will be unable to perform at the levels of his 21-year-old counterparts?
While I was in the Regular Army for 4 years, I met one, maybe 2, female soldiers that I would be comfortable with in Combat MOS’s. The other 9,346 women I met wouldn’t be able to out perform me in physical, combat related tasks.
In all honesty, I always struggled with the PT tests, so I would not have qualified either. Those combat specialty MOS’s are for physical specimans!
(No, my monikor is not my exiting rank!)

Pinging the list because feminism is immoral for many reasons. In this case, feminism demoralizes and weakens the military. Numerous personal accounts prove this, what to speak of news stories. Women should have their own outfits as they did previously. Affirmative action is crippling to individuals and everything it touches. If they want to have women mixed in, then the women should have to perform every test, every action, every bit of training exactly up to the mens' standards. If they can't do it, too bad! (and hardly any of them will be able to).

If the woman can meet the same requirements as a man, then give her a rifle.
Otherwise she is a larger liability.
