There are no pros IMO.
Neah Neah dear FRiend. While the men are fighting you can send them to go make you all a “samich”
Please please quit reading my mind and posting my thoughts here........
In real war, all other things being equal, an army with even 5% women will lose to an army of 100% men....every time......women are simply not physically or mentally made to fight to kill.......unless they are defending their children - and even then they will lose more often than win......
The only benefit of a co-ed military is to free males for the more physically demanding duties.
I was totally rear-echelon myself. I would call my years on active duty in the Army “uneventful” — except for a lot of office politics that I could just as well have experienced in any corporate job. That and an on-again, off-again relationship with a fellow officer, which cured me of any significant future desire for relationships.
Much like W.C. Fields’ crack about the beautiful blonde who drove him to drink, I never wrote my erstwhile lady friend to thank her. I’m 60, and a lifelong bachelor, having never really gotten over her.
Still, I’ve been spared such real-life experiences as being dragged into family court and deprived of half my assets and the affections of my children.
Yes, I should have written to thank her.
Ultimately, men and women are going to relate to each other as men and women. It doesn’t matter if you put them in uniform or give them some kind of corporate title.
