US Marines To Accept Chubbier Women

In an effort to maintain the new status quo of cutting standards everywhere in the name of equality and "progress", the Marine Corps announced major changes over the Fourth of July holiday weekend regarding how much it will allow service members to weigh, and the biggest shift comes for women: going forward "larger" ladies will be allowed to defend the country while also standards used within the physical fitness test will also be relaxed.

In a document released by USMC Fitness division, the new height and weight standard took effect on July 1, 2016 and is relaxing regulations to increase the pool of potential parties. Think of it as a covenant lite loan in a way... only "heavy." Why would the US do this? One could be excused for understandably saying that the US is becoming more progressive and is accommodating those who have the heart to serve but not necessary the physical capability.

We see a different reason for the US to be relaxing admission tests, which is this chart highlighting weak capacity from the Heritage US Military Strength Index:

Women in the marines are not combat up to snuff. Sorry, but they’re not. Fat women even less so.

Good men will die trying to compensate or cover for these chubbies.

Or because these chubbies cannot perform up to spec, cannot carry their own share of the burden in the field under duress.

We are ripe to be taken over... and deservedly so.

It has been a while back but I seem to recall this picture in an article about a young man who was quite obese and whose fervent dream was to serve in the Army. Subsequently, he went on a strict diet and began a supervised regimen designed to help him meet the Army’s fitness requirements. If I recall correctly, he lost well over a 100 pounds. I could be mistaken but I think this is a picture of that young man. BTW, he was accepted into the service.

Let’s just guess what happens when U.S. marines start looking like the meter maids in many big cities and towns

Marines? I understand the Army. Or the Air Force. But the Marines? They’re like the Spartans. Or used to be anyway.

Thank you

You know what the First Sergeant said STRAC really meant?

It was not “Strategic Army Corps”, nor “Skilled, Tough, Ready Around The Clock.”

It really stood for, “S**t, The Russians Are Coming!”

:)

Be Well.

This is to accommodate the dykes. Next will be a changing of uniforms to plaid flannel.

I’d rather have a beefy bull dyke fighting beside me than a skinny sorority chick type.

I'd have to think about which I'd rather have on a tank crew. But if she/it can't fit through the hatches, there's really no choice.

Women are hard wired to accept and fall in love with the rapist who murdered their husband.

I think it’s an increase of 7 pounds or so, which isn’t that big of a deal.

They increased it 5-7 pounds, hardly fat.

I was thinking the bottom of the barrel must be getting close.

Maybe it’s now just an empty barrel sitting atop a tunnel leading somewhere like...
