No women on ships. That is very bad idea and the policy needs to be halted ASAP.

There have been women on ships since the 70s.
Submarines are called “boats”

They got them on there too now.
I said over a decade ago this will be an issue, just for the “did you bring enough gum for everyone perspective”

100 enlisted men 2 showers for them, and 1 shower for 14 officers is bad enough, now they got 14 females officers bunked up over there, and we all wondering what’s going on in there, but hey we get to keep our showers.

Now there are 24, officers, half of them split tails telling us 100 how to run the boat.

You want to know who owns the boat? THE COB!!

There are 100+ of us and 14 of you and yer pissing me off.

I spent 4 years at sea on a warship. There were no women at all. However they were sucking up all the nice shore billets and it was not fair at all. BTW my job was to find and sink those “boats”.

Plenty of women have served on ships.

Going on a hot mission is not a good idea, it’s rough on the gals, it’ rough on the guys.

And it is a big mistake. A joke. But you are liberal so I get it. Women have the strength of 14 year old boys. In fact the US women Soccer team practices against MIDDLE SCHOOL BOY SOCCER TEAMS.

Look, half the trouble in the world is woman trouble, and that plain is unacceptable on a mission.

I get it, but plenty of women are meaner than cat ****

I always tell my brother, you are suffering estrogen poisoning! LOL Yer surrounded!

A 120 pound mean cat isn’t going to pull up a 200+ pound sailor three decks when the ship is on fire.

“The same thing happened in the corporate world. The HR department is dominated by women, the Engineering Department not so much.”

I think we greatly underestimate the degree of harm done by female-dominated HR departments to our economy and our society.

I’m not an expert on HR, but I tend to agree with your assessment. My FIL, who was an Electrical Engineer was the VP of Personnel for a regional power company. He got his job based on his WWII experience as the Training and Safety Office for his B-17 wing. He trained and mentored his replacement, also a male engineer. He was the last male head of HR. The lack of engineering knowledge and line experience showed in the HR operation.

The average man can break the average woman in half. The average very fit man can break the average very fit woman in half. To pretend otherwise is to deny science, to mock biology, and to risk harm to women.

That may be true of penis negative women. But a penis positive woman like Zoey Tur cannot easily be broken in half - not by the average man.
