Army Considers Return to Gendered Fitness Test as Equality Experiment Fails Miserably
The U.S. Army’s transition to a genderless fitness test appears to have backfired. We can file this one under “extremely predictable.”
According to a Military.com report, “early data shows nearly half of female soldiers can’t pass the test and might face being removed from service once it becomes official next year.”
The Army is now considering a return to gender-specific fitness standards.
The new Army Combat Fitness Test goes all out on gender equality, leveling the playing field and measuring women on the same scale as their male counterparts.
Of course, this effort to treat men and women as physical equals has only shown how different they actually are.
Forty-four percent of women have failed the ACFT, compared to 7 percent of men. Only 66 female soldiers have scored a 500 out of a perfect 600 since October; 31,978 men have done so.
“Female soldiers continue to lag male soldier scores in all events,” according to a United States Army Forces Command briefing obtained by Military.com.

Maybe have them stick to office work and cafeteria duty?

Shocked just shocked

How could they know? They had no data to support this conclusion. They were shocked, frankly, at the fact that men have higher physical performance than women.

So, according to General CRT...
57 different tests?

This will be thrown in their face anytime they talk about equality. I’m here for it

Males and females will never naturally be equal, physically.
These people who believe in “science” sure are pretty ignorant of the basics.
My girlfriend and I usually go to men’s college basketball games. One day, we decided to go to a women’s game. Her first comment was “This is different. Why do they keep tripping/falling and losing the ball?”

I figured they would lower the standards for everyone back to the female standards.

I call bullshite that only 32,000 Male Soldiers have scored at least 500/600.
I also note that the article completely leaves out the fact that the ACFT is age-neutral.

Yes, I know it was the Marines in AFGM

Sounds like discrimination. Females should have the same requirements just like Trans too.
Posted on 7/6/21 at 9:36 am to Jack Carter
If they are going to be in combat situations they need to be judged by the same standards.

This further highlights why women shouldn't be in the military to begin with. So they can't pass this "genderless" test. Ok... So now what? We go back to giving them female fitness tests that they can pass, but that fall woefully short of the male standard? And it's totally fine to send substandard soldiers out into the field of battle, endangering the lives of everyone around them?
I know that there are women that have fought and died for this country. I don't want in any way to take away from their sacrifices. But this is just common sense. You don't send people out into battle who can't hang with everyone else, just to make a political statement.

So, males are physically stronger and more athletic than females? No way! What genius figured this out? Follow the science!!!

Aren’t there 30,000 genders? That’s a lot of different standards.
