Candidate to be first female Navy SEAL officer quits

Shocking

Ding, ding, ding

A lot of men don't make it a week either. Shite's supposed to be tough.

This comment made me laugh

Has a woman ever made it through regular SEAL training? Maybe they should start there before they try for Officer training.

There will never be a female SEAL unless they modify the requirements. It's just way to physical. Not that some women don't have the 'want to' to do it, but I just don't see any of them having the strength.

My main issue with the whole "women in combat roles" thing is if they try to lower the standards/requirements in order to ensure some females can join. Just like affirmative action, it will ensure bullshite quotas cause unqualified individuals receive special treatment at the expense of our warfighting ability.

Injecting politics into the military in order to weaken it should be a capital offense.

Not many on this board would last a week, but there isn't a woman ON EARTH that can make it through Seal training.

But but men and women are the same after all

If you can handle the requirements, then sure.

If you wash out, no blaming anything other than yourself.
