Overall, the report says, all-male teams and crews outperformed mixed-gender ones on 93 out of 134 tasks evaluated. All-male teams were universally faster “in each tactical movement except those involving sammiches."

There's no reason for women to be in the military at all. They do nothing but spread disease and lower discipline. They are an inefficient source of labor.


Not to mention all the damn drama they bring which is a killer to unit morale and cohesion. I never served along side to females in my time but I've heard plenty from guys who did. They all say the same thing... Nothing but drama. And most of it has to do with who they're fricking in the unit.

Did the women pass the requirements to be marines?

1. I'm army so I can't speak for the marines, but just graduating basic training does not make one fit for for combat arms (infantry, armor, cavalry, artillery)

2. The physical requirements for females are lower than those for males.

Clearly, the problem is mixing the genders. Sounds like we need all female squads to me...

If they want women in the military so damn bad, make a women's military. Just like the WNBA. They can have their own standards and their own regs and get their own damn funding. And all the trannies can go there too and play make believe and they can have their own separate tasks. I dunno, have them guard the Canadian border or play nursemaid or what have you.


Just keep them out of the real military. Stop diluting and corrupting our fighting force.

Maybe they can have a unit of whores (this actually happened in the First World War.)

Other than the fact in this study females showed to be less accurate in firing and more prone to injury.

There were 3 test groups.

All male
Low density female to male ratio
High Density Female to Male ratio


Only 2 females remained at the end of the experiment. Most left because of injuries, some just quit.

Well, we all know that the hallmark of a strong military is diversity and gender equality. Competence is a distant third.

This is just another sign of just how peaceful things are in the world today. If WW III were about to gear up, I guarantee there wouldn't be very many women chomping at the bit to get on the front lines nor would the battle commanders be looking to put them out there.

Mike Huckabee went right back off the deep end with his "Eye of the Tiger" rally in Kentucky, but he was dead on when he said: "A military's job is to break things and kill people. It's not a social experiment."

This is all ridiculous, why can't they just figure out the necessary minimum qualifications and then apply those to everyone? On average men are stronger than women, sure, but that has no bearing when it comes to evaluating individuals. The article lists various tasks that the men were better at, like throwing their packs over the 8 foot wall or carrying a 200 lbs dummy in a fireman's carry, but a few of the women in the study were able to do those things even if a majority of them weren't. Why should they be punished because "on average" women are weaker?

On average, black dudes are stronger than white dudes. Does that mean we should exclude all white people from certain military units?

The army already has this. They're called brigade support battalions.

All data and evidence proves that women should not be in the combat arms.

Every
Single
Bit


There is absolutely zero reason to allow women into combat arms that would enhance our combat effectiveness, none a whatsoever. There is data to prove this. Of you look at the data and still believe that women should he allowed in then your are either stupid or you care more about a social agenda then you do about the lives of our soldiers or our ability to win wars. Those are absolutely without a doubt your only two options.

Black men are on average stronger and have greater bone strength than white men. By your logic, the most elite combat units should be off limits to white men because, on average, we are physically inferior. And yet, the military has done just fine evaluating black soldiers and white soldiers as individuals and not disqualifying all white soldiers based purely on their race. No reason it can't be the same with male and female soldiers.
