He didn't say special toilets, he said bathroom facilities, which is true.

Lol graded push ups? Marine Corps doesn't Do that trash

Women's higher rates of ptsd are likely a result of the different traumas that women are more likely exposed to than men.

PTSD symptoms typically don't present until months after a deployed soldier has returned home, so there's no reason to believe this would impair a woman's ability to serve.

Again, this is no different than the fact that, on average, whites are more injury prone than blacks.
quote:Because that result would be unsustainable.
And yet you don't seem to be campaigning to make certain jobs off limits to whites.

You're extrapolating conclusions on bone density and hip fractures to include all injuries? Or did I miss a link? There are many other types of injuries than hip fractures or even fractures.

You said they were stronger and I provided examples that disprove that. You tried to pull some bull shite about participation rates out of your arse and I slapped you around.
Lol, calm down slappy. Again, maybe your school's discus team was mostly white dudes, but that doesn't prove anything.

Wow, did it take you that long to think up "slappy?"
If by "my school," you mean every Olympic team ever assembled, and by "white dudes" you mean the vast majority of quarterbacks and pitchers, then yeah.
I love how you talk out of your arse and then accuse others of doing it.
"It's probably because...." Uh huh. It's probably because you're full of shite.

Coming soon to an Internet near you: A "new" study saying women and mixed gender teams are better in combat than all male teams. Of course, if you click one step further and read the actual study the "research" will be shoddy and blatenly irresponsible.

What I would also like for a fully authentic study is to see is the results of female only tests. I would think those would be higher than the gender mixed as well honestly.
Pretty sure that would be a ruthless fighting group if chosen correctly.

By your logic, the most elite combat units should be off limits to white men because, on average, we are physically inferior.
fricking retarded but kudos on attempting to deflect the issue into a racial one. One of the biggest predicators for success in combat arms - especially Army infantry - is the APFT. It's separated by gender not race.
Ever seen a group of female soldiers on mile 18 of a 20 mile ruck march? Me neither.

Obviously these were biased male researchers. If it were all female researchers it would be the other way around, that females would outperform 93/134 tasks.

Having trained FETs, and being part of a mixed training exercise where a FET was mixed with my platoon for a field problem, I can say that females do not belong in an Infantry Fire Team.
There're missions where it makes since to have FET come with, but for 90% of the time in the Light Infantry females only hinder the mission.

Better to have no country at all than a sexist, hetero-normative patriarchal one!!1

If anyone hasn't read the actual report, I'd highly suggest it. It's good reading and very enlightening.
For example, you have to understand the degree to which the Marine Corps, derided by pedestrians as dumb or cannon-fodder, are students, even masters of war. For example, just one quote:

“Of all the consistent patterns we can discern in war, there are two concepts of universal significance in
generating combat power: speed and focus. Speed is rapidity of action. It applies to both time and
space. Speed over time is tempo – the consistent ability to operate quickly. Speed over distance, or
space, is the ability to move rapidly. Both forms are genuine sources of combat power. In other words,
speed is a weapon.”

The difference in APFT grading standards by gender should tell us all we need to know. If the female standards are sufficient, why not apply them to all Soldiers?

John Boyd approves.

All branches of the military are facing a January 1, 2016, deadline to open all combat roles to women
such bullshite
About 5 days ago I got an email from big AF asking my interest in retraining into PJ,CCT,TACP or SOWT bc my aptitude test scores and pt test scores flag me as a person of interest for them.
So I take the survey yada yada saying im interested and understanding the aspects of the career fields.
So I get to the end of it and of course they had to throw two fricking questions at the end asking my opinion on females serving in these roles. Like usual the military has a hidden agenda. I went ruthless on the two questions why women SHOULD NOT be in these jobs.

So I'd say trying to create all female infantry squads would only make things even worse.
The rush to attack America just get a chance to rape an entire unit of women combat soldiers would be just what the military industrial complex needs to keep pumping out arms for decades.
