It is a big hinderance to me as a taxpayer whenever I hear about a female "soldier" sent home premature because she got pregnant.

In addition many stories have been written how some women have gotten pregnant on purpose.

I also have issues with women menstrating and such during combat, dug in or captured but wont go into this on this thread.

You ever see a marine so scared he lost control of his bowels,

I have.

It isn't pretty and is more shocking then dealing with a woman on her menses.

If your argument against women in the military all boils down to the issue of pregancy and menstration, I would gleefully point out that women know how to handle both and have since the begining of time.

Most women can't lug a 200 lb dead weight guy very far if at all. That possibly means....a man left behind. That's the problem and the bottom line.
