Women in the military: yes or no?

[IronFist]

I think that women should not be allowed to enlist in the army, especially in combat roles. Women are always weaker than men, they can't met physical requirements and they are usually completely useless on the battlefield. They are only good in support roles. Men unconsciously always try to help women so they care more about aiding them than about their battle task.

[Bigby]

Wat.

[ElectionsGuy]

Yes (not a misogynist)

[Marokai Backbeat]

Anyone should be free to try and meet the physical standards for any military role.

[Higgs]

Oh, hi, jmcftm, it's kind of you to reveal yourself by going back to one of your pet ideas.

As long as they can meet the same physical requirements as the men, sure.

This is not what is happening though, standards are constantly being dropped in the military, among police, and firefighters to allow for women to come in.

The two "first female army rangers" who just got headlines only did so because the standards were dropped to allow them to pass.

When ISIS captures our slower, weaker, weighed-down female soldiers and starts using them as baby factories and selling them into sex slavery, well, be careful what you wished for.

[Mehmentum]

Yes, obviously.

[The Dowager Mod]

Women?
In the military?
Ridiculous!

cite?  A brief Googling showed me accusations of that, but no proof.  And my Google Fu is strong.

Might I suggest stop replying to this poster? His MO is to periodically post some extremist thing and then disappear. Never responds in his own posts or others. Classic hit and run tactics. Perhaps stop playing along ? This will be my first and last post to this OP

Yes, women should serve in the military, and they should be allowed to serve in combat roles as well.

Everyone should be allowed to try, but the standards for acceptance should be universal and not influenced by equality issues. As a 5'8" petite woman, I shouldn't be allowed into a role for which I am not physically built to fill on the basis of "inclusion".

[Crumpets]

If you deny anyone who passes the tests and training from participating, you are needlessly throwing away a useful tool from your toolkit. Also, it's good to not be a sexist pig.

[angus]

yes.

This. As long as standards are the same for all and not bended just for diversity, then I want anyone who can perform well in the military to be in the military.

[SWE]

Nobody should be allowed in the military
