predictable. women’s bodies are not designed by our Creator for that kind of combat wear and tear. and as men know, you “play” hurt most of the time. there’s no timeout in war.
and, btw, one of the worst things this is doing is implicitly lowering standards for men.
"...When 61 percent [of female West Point plebes] failed a complete physical test, compared to 4.8 percent of male plebes, separate standards where devised for the women. Similar adjustments were made to other standards. At Annapolis, a two-foot stepping stool was added to an indoor obstacle course to enable women to surmount an eight-foot wall. Mitchell also reports that when women were integrated into the Air Forces Cadet Wing, The [Air Force] academys physical fitness test included push-ups, pull-ups, a standing broad jump, and six-hundred-yard run, but since very few of the women could perform one pull-up or complete any of the other events, different standards were devised for them. They were allowed more time for the run, less distance on the jump, and fewer push-ups. Instead of pull-ups, female cadets were given points for the length of time they could hang on the bar. They fell out of group runs, lagged behind on road marches, failed to negotiate obstacles on the assault courses (later modified to make them easier), could not climb a rope
. The women averaged eight visits to the medical clinic; the men averaged only 2.5 visits. On the average, women suffered nine times as many shin splints as men, five times as many stress fractures, and more than five times as many cases of tendinitis.
