Where does it say mannequins? If a woman can pass the same exact physical fitness tests as other combat troops, why shouldn't they be able to be in combat?

That has been answered numerous times by several people that know more than you. Think about that and see if you're still confused.

No. Womens PT qualifications are way lower than men.
Yes, but it shouldn't be is the point I'm getting at if they want combat roles.

No, it shouldn't be that way. That also has very little to do with women in combat.

Basically they can't pass, so they can't combat. ;)

I don't care if they pass or not. They shouldn't combat. I don't think they should be in the military either, but they definitely shouldn't combat.
I'm going to make a thread that links all this stuff. in the future when someone asks the same questions as you did, just tell them to search "Women in combat master thread"

Nope.
They're women, so they can't effectively combat.

In case you didn't get the undertone of my first posts, we are actually on the same page buddy.

Well I definitely didn't get that from your first posts. Of course you are free to disagree with me any time. You wouldn't be the first. That being said, I'm glad we agree, even if it seems like a really really strange way to agree with someone.

My first post was basically saying she can't drag me to safety if I'm injured, so she is no good to me in that situation. Plus I don't think women could handle seeing a four year old's brain and guts and all that fun shite men like.

Right, but then the argument becomes what if she can? The only correct answer is that it doesn't matter.

I doubt a normal woman could (over 300 lbs with equipment), plus she couldn't pass the other physical exams as linked earlier.

It's what most people understand. A relatively small number of people have experience with real, sustained combat.
