She’s cut from the Pelosi stamp, isn’t she? I hate her from her face alone, so immature of me.

I’d say I’m a feminist in some respects, but the point having a military is to win wars, or be so intimidating that wars don’t happen, and women are NOT a battlefield asset.

The vast majority of women are ill-suited for combat.

Many men are also ill-suited for combat.

Only the fittest in mind and body should be combat soldiers.

No person or group of persons that harm combat efficiency should be in a fighting force, the reason why is meaningless.

Killing people and breaking stuff should be the only objective...war really is hell.

Physically weaker? Absolutely—and very nearly universally!

Emotionally? I’m not so sure. I’d say in a lot of ways men and women are emotionally ‘differently abled’. E.g., I bet women on average have a much easier time with the sight of blood and are slower to reach the breaking point on violent anger, though they probably cry more readily than men, again, on average.
