You obviously are unaware of the actual issues involved as well as how the Army scores its PT tests.
Try to make your point elsewhere--you won't succeed here.
You must have misunderstand my point. If you thought I was saying women can do everything men can do, I don't believe that — not at all.
I'm quite aware of the difference in PT test scoring for men and women, as well as for different ages with both genders.
Also, my point was **NOT** that women can do everything in the military. The Army and Marine Corps have especially good reasons for saying women don't qualify for some MOSes. Even with an Air Force combat pilot, there's a huge difference between being a USAF combat pilot and being in ground combat as a soldier or Marine.
I strongly believe 1) that there are some duties virtually no women can do — and I say “virtually no women” rather than “no women” only because there may be a one-in-100,000 exception case of a female bodybuilder who would meet standards, 2) that there are other duties women should not do as a matter of policy, and 3) that very few women want to do or are able to do most military duties in any case.
My point was not that I want to see women in the infantry. That's crazy.
My point was women who want to do so and are able to do so should be able to serve in the military.
