I think this is less about "women's equal rights" & more about the feminization of men. In order for the powers that be to over throw us as a nation they must get rid of real men. They are and have been playing the long game for years.
I was going to type something, but Don scared me =P
Very well said Don. And is the norm, makes total sense. Even a stout female is not going to drag You or I as dead weight or carry the same load as you or I. Plus you just cannot change natural instinct, the male will try to protect the female in some way no matter what the rules say.
I get what you're saying, Don. I just think they should be allowed to try out if they want to. It should not be dictated by politicos that women be equally spread throughout the force. A quota system would destroy our force, definitely. If they can meet the standard, then I have no issue. I've talked to a lot of women in the military over the years, and the vast majority recognize that the sexes are physically different and have different physiological strengths/weaknesses. The vast majority also has no desire to be combat arms, or special ops. There are a few who have been affected by the women's lib PC dipsticks, and those I just challenge to throw a ruck on their backs and keep up with me. I've yet to have one of those idiots except the challenge, BTW. Whatever our opinion on this topic, the one constant is that the standards for true warfighters must not be diminished. It takes certain physical strengths to be at the tip of the spear, and failing in that regard leads to unnecessary losses, and destroys our ability to win wars.
Great minds, and all that. Must be my being raised by a crusty old Warrant. ;)

Stones are great, but that doesn't move a 200lb comrade.
But I agree with Norm...Men these days, and I use the term loosely...are more like women than I am comfortable with. Aren't most a bunch of Wusses? Or is it just me seeing it?
