"Hey Vasquez. Anyone ever mistake you for a man?"
"No man, you?"
Bye bye. I don’t look to gurls for protection.
So will the 0 administration drop the standards to please the feminazis?
They don’t call them the few, the proud, the Marines for nothing.
Of course, the article fails to mention many males fail the course, as well.
“...which are substantially higher than for the enlisted course–are unrealistically challenging, and need to be lowered.”
Why lower it - combat action doesn’t lower when a female hits the field...this is BS!
I mean, really, why are there not more female moving men? Asphalt workers? Plumbers? Bone surgeons? Some jobs require brute strength. Most women don’t have it. Now, if I wanted to be a female Marine, I would practice shooting all day long until I was an excellent marksman. You can’t beat that. Then I would tell them “I can hit a fly from 1000 feet, can you use me?”
You mean “G.I. Jane” wasn’t a documentary???? (/shock)
Watching cross fit woman’s competition onESPN I think any of those gals could do any marine course. And they are all lovely to look at.
Interesting. What specifically happens on the first day of training that eliminates all of the women? Do they fail some required physical fitness tests?
They have something you don't have.
Welcome to the real world, girls. Forget that song about the ant and the rubber tree plant. Men and women are not the same. That’s why you can have babies.
This course screens out a lot of men too. The idea is to only take the fittest.
Once “quotas” are imposed, standard will be dropped so women can participate all the way to graduation, and we will have Marine combat officers that are not fit, both male and female.
Won’t that be great for our country?
Lower the standards and you lower the life expectancy of those serving under you.
A failure rate of 100% since the program started, look for charges of sexism/racism to follow, equal opportunity type lawyers everywhere are salivating over their prospects.
Obviously the standards are too high. Time to lower them.
“The Marine Corps, along with the other services, has been evaluating how to comply with the order to gender-integrate its combat arms specialties by the end of this year, or apply for special exemptions.”
“Female enlisted Marines have been able to graduate from the enlisted School of Infantry’s Infantry Training Battalion in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, though at a lower rate than male enlisted Marines, while female officers have faced great difficulty in graduating from the course in Quantico.”
So some enlisted female Marines have been able to graduate from the enlisted Infantry school. It would be interesting to know if any standards were lowered to allow this to happen. And this order to gender integrate the combat arms is a social experiment out of control. God help the Marines and the others in the combat arms.

"No man, you?"
Isn’t Demi Moore available anymore?
Of course the standards will be ordered to be lowered.
After all, how does anyone think the Obamadork and the Holderdork even got INTO law school let alone graduate?
And, of course, talented A-Americans who had merit and ability such as Justice Thomas are constantly made fun of.
29 Wimmin and thousands of Men have have failed that course.....gawd damn presstitutes’n polidiots tryin to kick the flies on the cow pies again .....doom on em.
Anyone know the following:
1) How many days long is the course (total number of days)?
2) How many days into the course has any woman ever made it?
