Sounds like it is time for the US Navy to return to the old military policy of discharging females when they became pregnant.

[libertylover]

such increases cast a shadow over the lofty stupid gender integration goals set by former President Barack Obama.

It amazes me how those supporting abortion claim it is unrealistic to teach or expect abstinence for High School students, yet believe young people out of High School only a couple years should refrain from sexual contact once they join the Military and serve in high stress situations

It was once the general wisdom on the waterfront that it is bad luck to sign a woman on to the crew.
Some sailors regard women in the crew as recreation. Some get horny on long deployments. Some are jerks and women, for the most part, are women.

Men are just going to have to learn to control themselves, or they will continue to be taken advantage of like this.

Note that being taken advantage of, in this context, does not make them victims.

[blueunicorn6]

Impossible.

Men and women are the same.

I don’t really see any significant different between a person self-inflicting a wound to get out of duty/service and getting pregnant. Charges should be brought or at the least a dishonorable discharge to blot their record forever.

A friend of my daughter’s - very attractive young woman - went into the Navy after graduation. I’m sure every straight male within sniffing distance was after her. Haven’t heard if she’s riding the pregnancy express though.
