The UK’s armed forces are considering a proposal to remove gender-specific terms like rifleman or guardsman from the titles of its various ranks and to replace these with less masculine ones, according to measures being appraised by British army chief Patrick Sanders.
The potential switch, which would uproot centuries of army tradition, comes amid a review into “terms and terminology” and has reportedly come under consideration after some female soldiers expressed to Sanders that they felt excluded by male-dominated phraseology in the army.

It’s best for some to ignore the Queering NATO.

I just can’t...
Sister, you joined the military to defend our country. In the course of your duties, you may take part in destroying infrastructure and eliminating the enemy.
The first and only thing you should worry about on the job is mission readiness.
If your ass is butt hurt over a term that has been used for several hundred years, you don’t belong there. You are a risk to everyone in your unit. Drop out or shut up.

Gee, I wonder if the gender neutral soldiers will go out and kill or be killed if a war breaks out?

“You are a risk to everyone in your unit. Drop out or shut up.“
That’s the way men talk to one another but it’s the FIRST thing to go when women enter the picture.

Meanwhile China and Russian military leadership is doubling down to keep the mentally ill out of their ranks.

God help us if these feminized and homosexual ridden military forces of the West take on the Chinese, Russians, or Iranians. Even old friends like Israel, Japan, and South Korea may be worried. They will possibly cut deals with the new dominant powers.
