Let us send our daughters to die in battle for the sake of gender neutrality!

There are three different types of ideas: good ideas, bad ideas, and ideas so horrifically stupid that they will be mocked and scorned by our descendants for centuries to come.

Modern left-wingers typically trade in the second sort of idea, while occasionally conjuring up something that unquestionably falls into the third category.

Speaking of which, there’s this.

After discovering that half of the female Marines can’t meet the minimum physical fitness requirements, usually failing to do three pull-ups, the Corps has decided to delay the standards. This is all part of the process of “equalizing” physical requirements so as to integrate women into combat roles.

Here we have a horrible idea, stacked on top of a bewilderingly idiotic idea, poured over a collection of reckless, ideologically-fueled, irrational, liberal feminist ideas. Basically, an insane idea had sexual relations with a moronic idea and the two gave birth to this idea.

In other words, I disagree.

A feminist on Fox last night was demanding the Marines lower their physical standards/requirements to accomodate females. She was running roughshod over the rest of the panel.

Go to any gym, and the gym rats who are there five times a week can all do pull ups. Women included.

We have people in the service now who don’t physically train hard enough, and a command structure which allows it.

War is coming to this country in the next couple of years so what difference does it make. It will actually make it easier for us if Barry’s army is a bunch of wimmin and fags.

The insisted the failure was because the women weren’t allowed to train for the standard. They said the standard should be the same for both sxes.

It is the RECRUITER'S responsibility to ensure that the recruit can meet the minimum standards prior to going to boot. The recruit is responsible, as well, but the senior rank is held most responsible.

With respect to "not being allowed to train...", it is my understanding that the female recruits were told to perform their pullups at the same moment in Boot as the men. If the man fails, they are put in remedial, or put into a later cycle in order to bring themselves in line with the requirements. If they fail to meet the minimum, they fail - and don't graduate.

These two women, whom I thank for their service, are part of the problem - they are NOT part of the solution.

Even if I could pull myself up three times from a dead hang, which I’m not sure if I could, it would only be because I weigh a lot less than an average guy. I put on my brothers helmet for about 30 seconds and thought I was going to fall over.

I’m sure there’s a support role the ladies can play, but its ridiculous to think they can pull equal weight patrolling a city in 100+ degree heat under threat of attack while carrying 40 pounds of weight. They will pass out, and leave the men open to attack.

It is depraved to have women in combat. Women need to be the bearer of the next generation.

You make a good point. Our great wealth, ubiquitous conveniences, and relative national security have afforded us the luxury of living in a comfortable world that has enabled us to engage in all manner of social experimentation. However, this can all be quickly swept away when an existential threat arises. Then it will be back to reality.

DADT would have never been lifted without REPUBLICAN support.
Ron Paul voted for it and if his son had been in the senate he would have voted to sodomize the armed forces as well.

Australia, Canada, Israel, New Zealand, Norway, and Sweden are not fit to be called countries? Combat roles are open to to women in all those,,,non-countries.

Our current society has been formed by at least 60 years of brainwashing and it is an extremely simple thing to do.

I just watched Marcia Brady, throw her older brother in a karate move.

Just like Pavlov’s dogs.

We see a Black, he always is the best, always smarter, cooler, and better in every way than Whites, White Men that is. Same for women.

Every character in say Seinfeld has sex like an alley cat and it is treated as the only normal behavior. Everyone knows the score. Charlie’s Angels constantly beating up middle aged males. I could go on for thousands of words but I hope you get the idea.

Two or three generations have been treated to this brainwashing and that is exactly what it is and it has worked.

When men can bear and nurse children, we will say the genders are equal. Until then, we are not equal and we are lying to ourselves if we continue to say so.

“On another front picture the American public watching women prisoners being beheaded on Al Jazeera. That is what will happen just as sure as we are talking about it.”

That would happen beyond a doubt because they know the impact it would have. Speaking as a soldier if I knew they were going to try to capture a female, and we were in the thick of it, it would greatly affect my decision making abilities.

All that said, the major world wars could not of been won without the ladies. While the men were overseas, the women picked up the slack on the homefront. They were making planes, tanks, and ships. They were fixing things, they were making the rations. Basically, they kept the logistical train moving and without good logistics, you don’t have an army.

So true and women can fly planes and choppers, drive trucks and other things that may be dangerous but not situations like the frontline battlefield. Women don’t lack courage.

haha, no, nobody is saying women lack courage, I’ve seen some ladies with far too much of it in my opinion.

For an example, when camping as a kid, my youngest sister who was 4 at the time rolled out from the canvas of the tent trailer and landed outside on the ground. I heard my mom tell my dad that Mel had fallen out again and to go get her. He goes outside and comes back right away empty handed. He said there’s a bear out there. My mother ran out immediately and grabs my little sister. Turns out the bear was a big black newfoundland dog, but to this day I don’t let him live that one down lol. My mother thinking it was a bear didn’t care though, come hell or high water I’m going to get my kid lol.
