No, they DO NOT belong in combat.
Agreement elusive on women in combat
Women don't belong in combat. They don't belong in the police departments/fire departments. They don't belong in any physically strenuous or dangerous occupation.
They are the civilizing agents of our culture, our better halves. As such they should set the tone of our national mindset. That means helping to run the country from back home while men do the physical tasks for which we are better suited.
Why yes, I am a Neanderthal. Did you have to ask?

That's for sure! They don't! I could tell you tories about women in schools and in the fields for hours. But we weren't allowed to say anything, because that would be sexist.
You got it!!
THANKS!!
u are dead right!..I wrote about this many times and to deaf ears ..sigh.........................hope you are having a super weekend my friend~!.:)
I'm a woman, and I totally agree with you. About the foolishness of women in combat, etc., not the Neanderthal thing.
We've reached the point where we are so hellbent being politically correct we're willing to turn men into women and women into men. And as a result the nurturing gender loses the ability to nurture offspring, the protector/provider gender loses the ability to protect and provide for offspring, and the entire species suffers. Humans really can be the dumbest mammals on the planet.
You people have obviously never been to the Boxing Day sales. Last year two women had to be physically separated and I had to fend some colourblind jezebel off with my umbrella when she tried to snatch a half-price cashmere scarf right out of my hands. I swear I saw death that day.
Jordan, when a whiskey can carry a 110 lb rucksack for 15 kilometers, dig a fighting emplacement, camo it up, and still have the upper body strength to lay and colimate a G/VllD while pulling security, then we will talk. They usually just whined and said they didn't have the upper body strength to do it, and wanted one of the guys to pull their share of the work.
Hell, they couldn't even drive a 113because they weren't strong enough to operate the lats! Or break track. Or...well lots of things. Size and upper body strength matter.
I know I'm a few hours late, but happy Thanksgiving!
"Size and upper body strength matter."
In case it wasn't clear, I was just joking with you. :) As a matter of principle I disagree with the idea of disbarring women from any job whatsoever without excellent basis, but concerning this particular topic I'm insufficiently knowledgeable to have an informed opinion. It sounds like the main issue is the base level of fitness, in which case sex isn't a necessary criterion; just impose uniform standards of fitness, surely?
That said, I'm pretty sure your real problem is just insufficient motivation. The average bargain shopper will happily claw out your eyeballs for a pair of cut-price Balmain jeans, and even an Autumn complexion did not deter an avaricious harridan from coveting my powder-blue cashmere scarf. Give her an AK-47 and I'd have been toast. If the US Army found a way to exploit that, the rest of us would probably just throw in the towel.
