And you have proof of this? What kinda expertise do you with teenage girls?

either way we're not talking about teenage boys or girls. we're talking about young men and women in the military.

Claiming innocence if a boy goes too far? What the heck does that mean? By going to far, do you mean rape? Oh, right, she was asking for it.

Women in the military need to learn how to protect themselves, what's the point of being in the military if you don't know how to fight?

Do they even teach self defense?

I did not mean it literally. I meant that if a man ever saw a women being hurt they would help not join in or cheer it on.

Opinions? Agree or disagree?
ALLOWED ?????


So sorry but women are EQUAL CITIZENS and do what they damn well please....no man "allows" them to do, or not do, anything anymore.

You think the victims should have "consequences", be punished???

How about those NOBLE RAPING SICK PIGS they're forced to work with?....why not throw them all in jail after their dishonorable discharge. Isn't RAPING your fellow soldiers an act of terrorism and treason????

HANG THEM! And hang the commanding officers who prefer to hide it.

"War is a young man's game" - an old saying, but so true.

Women should never have been integrated such that they have to worry about getting to a latrine in the middle of the night. What have we come to when soldiers can serve while pregnant? Where deployment means sending a mother off with her unit and leaving her children behind?

Political correctness will be the damnation of this country.

I'm not excusing rape, that is never acceptable behavior. As to sexual harassment, many women used the most benign circumstances to claim sexual harassment where none existed.

A lot of the females in my unit are pretty tough, but it's a select few that do what you mention: try to get special treatment.

We're loading the LM's and they ask me if they have to help b/c some of the stuff is too heavy etc. pfft

As far as rape's concerned, I honestly don't know how the military can address but they better do something b/c the numbers ain't looking too good.

If there were no women in the US military the guys wiould just rape women on the streets near their bases. Sad but true.

Instead of dealing with the women and talking about taking the women away, we should be figuring out how to make the MEN in the military act with a little bit more dignity and common decency. Most US soldiers act completely disgraceful.

Especially overseas, the way they act gives the USA a bad name. It's probably a major reason why the world thinks the US is a bunch of violent, ignorant goons.
