    Default Trouble With Women in Men's Roles

    Ya think?


    Over the past nine months, the Marine Corps tested a gender-integrated task force in both Twentynine Palms, Calif. and Camp Lejeune, N.C. in an attempt to gauge what the Corps might look like with women in combat roles.


    According to a recent report in the Marine Corps Times, only a small number of women were left by the experiment’s conclusion — two of the roughly two dozen who started — mostly in part because of the physical and mental stress that comes with combat roles. Both the men and women in the task force also reported a breakdown in unit cohesion with some voicing a perceived unequal treatment from their peers.


    The experiment comes as all branches of the military face a Jan. 1 deadline to open all combat positions to women — from basic infantry battalions to elite special operations units such as U.S. Navy SEALs.

    WOMEN ARE NOT HARD WIRED TO BE FIGHTERS, TO BE HYPER AGGRESSIVE, TO BE SAVAGE, TO BE BRUTAL,
    TO ENJOY CRUSHING ANOTHER PERSON OR EVEN KILLING ANOTHER PERSON..

    THEY ARE HARD WIRED TO BE MOTHERS , TO CARE FOR THE WEAK AND INNOCENT.

    They are NOT "made" to use massive strength in fighting and rise to the occasion(in war) as men are IMHO.-Tyr

    frankly i don't men or women are "meant" for war. Murder and wars came after the fall.
    But men are more naturally geared for warrior roles in this corrupt world than women are.
    It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. The freeman of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise, and entangled the question in precedents. James Madison
    Live as free people, yet without employing your freedom as a pretext for wickedness; but live at all times as servants of God.
