It has been my experience that pretty much every woman in the forces who gets past basic sets out to prove they aren‘t the weaker sex. And I think they do a rather good job at it. I‘d rather have a male instructor then a female instructor any day because of it.
A little addition to my original reply:
As far as women in combat, women in the special forces, whatever, goes, as far as I‘m concerned, anyone who can do the job PROPERLY should be allowed to do the job. Male, female, gay, straight, etc, doesn‘t matter.
That actually brings up another (Though off-topic) point. Homosexuals in the military. I‘m against homosexuals in the military. Why? Because I know many gay men. With the exception of one of them, they‘re all in better shape then me, and this would make me look bad.
In all seriousness though, again, it comes down to this. Anyone who can do the job, should be allowed to do the job (I‘m sure to this somone will point out that if that were true, then we‘d let in every low-life imagineable, of course, I counter that by saying that by saying that being of good character is all in the job description).
I‘ve heard a few ridiculous arguments against having homosexuals in the military, the most notable is that people don‘t feel "comfortable" around homosexuals... to them I ask, would you support kicking out every single hetrosexual male because there are women in the army? Of course not. We‘re here to do a job. If there‘s anything else happening, then you need to suck it up and act like a professional.
Thus ends my rant.
