We have to assume the stats stated above are correct. This means out of the tens of thousands of American Soldiers available in the pool, only 4,000 Soldiers are eligible to participate at the Ranger School.
We agree on that, correct?
The only thing we are quibbling about is f vs m. Am I correct?
Now, I am only saying if an f Soldier can do what her fellow eligible m Soldier can do let her attend. If she cannot then she may not and can not attend the Ranger School. To make sure we understand each other. This imaginary f Soldier has to do everything as well or better than her eligible fellow m Soldier. Again the standards are the same and have not changed from today's standards. If the f Soldier's genitalia get in the way of her successfully completing any of her tasks she is OUT.
Now, I have seen posts stating that this imaginary f Soldier is taking a slot from an m Soldier. OK, assuming that not many f Soldiers are willing/capable to put up with Ranger School, allow an m Soldier as backup to replace this Amazon Annie should she fail.
Gentlemen, please debate the points not the genitalia. : )
Any society that sends its women to fight for it before it sends its non-shaving boys and cane-borne old men deserves to be overrun.
