They put the women’s base basketball team in the old men league (over 35) at one base and they never won a game. They quit after ten losses.

It will be the same in combat. No unit would want to lose to women so they would fight harder. I heard this is the reason the Israelis pulled their all female unit out of the front line. They do mostly guard duty. It was just a PR stunt.

That is EXACTLY why the Israelis pulled their women from combat units. It simply didn't work, as hard core as Israeli women are. Hopefully, we will eventually learn, and our women are nowhere near as defensive as Israeli women.
