You know the men could try controlling themselves. Or do you agree with Islam that men can not control themselves so women should be kept covered-up?

Yeah men should control themselves, but only idiots refuse to recognise that human nature is such that under extreme stress like combat some won't.This just one of many reasons women do not belong on the battlefield. Why do you think for the last 4,000 years of Western civilization armies have consisted of men pretty much exclusively?

That is the same logic that the people we are fighting use in regards to rape. We are better that that and saying that the only solution is to remove the women is just making excuses.

As a side note, I think that having women in a combat zone is a STUPID thing to do. But making excuses for the men is wrong also.

Uh, I dunno, maybe because men are stronger? Can run further carrying more stuff, are better at knife fights? I'm reaching here....
