Women in combat

Oppose.

And I'm not sure what the hell people mean by "equality" in the context of human relations, as if this is some kind of meaningful, objective concept. If by equality you mean being treated the same, then yes, it is true by definition that in order to be treated the same, women have to be treated the same with regard to 'responsibilities' as well as 'privileges,' for there is no qualifier. But if by equality, you mean that society is to hold each sex in equal esteem, you are dealing with something that is completely subjective and, in order to be realized with regard to any individual, does not require the same roles at all.

How many women will qualify compared to how many men, and what are the costs of trying to maintain separate facilities for them? Moreover, every intelligent person realizes men act differently around women than they do around each other.

Having women in the military is an awful idea.
