Future WH’s and Congresses will work to repeal it. I can’t figure out where the weapon systems on the subs are going to go with all the accommodations you need to make for all the gender variations.
Maybe they think that if you had a bunch of women with PMS aboard we wouldn't need torpedos and missiles.
I'm of the opinion that if they want women on submarines, they should just go ahead and give them one. That would take the sex problem out of the equation.
