It is sheer ignorance to pretend as if women are men. They are women. Iraqi soldiers would just love to get their hands on these lovelies.
How about we send your daughter into combat.

We went through all this with the female helicopter pilot captured in Gulf War I.

After her release, she said "yes, she had been raped, so what? Didn't the press think the men were raoed too. After all these were Arabs."

It is just that the press is too delicate about our male heoroe to ask them if they got the Laurence of Arabia treatment.

I don't see how men getting raped in times of war is a reason to let women be raped.

My premise is that there is NO NEED to put women in combat.
Appeasing short haired dykes in flannels is not a need.

Some wish to divert the issue to "women are capable" at this or that. That's a great discussion, but if we are talking about putting women in situations where they can be captured and abused, the other side loses.
The fact that they feel a need to divert or reframe the issue shows just how wrong they are.
