Only an idiot nation would intentionally send the bearers of their future children to the front lines to prove a sick and twisted social experiment that serves to do nothing for anyone. The feminists have and will continue their divide and conquer mentality, and parlay it onto the military. You can already see it. I have read where they were calling for separate units for females to be run by females due to some rapes that occurred. Congratulations feminists, your daughters will now, hopefully, according to your sick minds, have equal access to the selective service and the extreme dangers of war. Bunch of nonsense.

Where the frack have you been for the last 10 years? Hiding behind Phyllis Schlafly's apron?

Women flew as Apache gunship pilots.

Women fly frontline fighter aircraft.

Women drove in frequently ambushed truck convoys.

Women served as translators and interrogators on Army and Marine Patrols.

Women served as MP.

In Iraq, and Afghanistan there were no "frontlines" combat was anywhere and everywhere.

All the administration has done is recognized the bleeding obvious, women already serve in combat but don't get the credit (see promotion track) that goes along with serving in combat units.

Default Women in combat/infantry, this is a terrible idea

I heard on the news Panetta will authorize women to serve in combat, anyway in positions they have previously not been allowed. Of course this is a terrible idea which will further destroy our military. You can't make this stuff up.

You make such a compelling argument for why this is a bad idea... I'm seriously rethinking my position.

It was in the paper awhile back. I'm paraphrasing so don't quote me. But there were rumblings of something to that affect where the feminists were up in arms about a bunch of rapes that occurred and the article called for more female leadership.

It's somewhat off-topic to the OP but it causes nothing but problems.

“But there are still women in the military who are going through this and who can’t speak up,” she said, her voice cracking. “And it’s really, really, really lonely. I just want them to know that they’re not alone, and we’re fighting for them.”
Service Members Sue Defense Secretary Over Alleged Military Rapes - The Daily Beast

I'm tired of this type of stuff. It's almost comical. Women have no place in intentional, active combat roles.

Actually, the real question is where in the world are all the men? What are they doing these days letting this go on? I have no problem with tactical use or as medical ops, but not for strict combat services.

Being a woman isnt the same anymore in this country. For better, and for worse. More worse than better. Men have always been pigs, more so than women. Not all of course. Not saying its right. But now, women are just as much pigs as men. The sad thing is, they seem to be proud of that.
