I captured this image when visiting a Michigan college. It is a recruiting poster. I should have gotten more of it in the picture. To me this poster says a million words and most are not positive. This image shows what is wrong with America as leftist creep into positions of power.

Let's get one thing straight. Most people agree that women have an important role to play in the military. They have served honorably since the Country was founded. That is not what is my concern. I am concerned with the fact that some idiot leftist at the Pentagon thinks that women are capable of teaching men to fight. She may be scrawny but I'm sure she is scrappy. I was in the military and the men in my company would have ate her alive when it comes to physical training. Women just don't have the strength, stamina and durable joints that men posses. Can anyone imagine what an enemy army thinks about soldiers being trained by women. I'm sure they would be happy to engage a battalion of women troopers in a hand to hand combat situation which can happen during any battle. It has been proven that a mixed combat unit of men and women do substantially worse than all male soldiers. Men are far more aggressive than women and far stronger. If she were training troops in new electronic weaponry or some other kind of training like that I could understand.  But almost any of the trainees sitting around watching her could kick the crap out of her unless they were made of ferry dust. This is not a gender issue it is an issue of training a physical army ready to do combat at a moments notice. Read the statement on the lower right of the poster. Typical gender neutral propaganda. There is a push to feminize the military.

Women are in every branch of the services and are valued for their abilities but I doubt that any sane person thinks that women in combat against men makes any sense. There are a few countries such as Israel who actually draft women but studies have shown that women are just not physically made for combat. A paragraph from an article in the National Review states "Putting women into close combat roles isn’t fair to the men who will be relying on them, and isn’t fair to the women who will find themselves continuously at a deadly disadvantage. When we send our soldiers into combat we should be giving them the best possible chance of succeeding and surviving. While women are equal to or better than men at many tasks, they simply aren’t when it comes to combat. Substituting men with far less combat-capable women is profoundly unfair, immoral, and utterly unnecessary."

Women in combat is a propaganda pipe dream advocated by the left which is trying to alter society at it's basic standards.

The seven myths about women in combat is an interesting read. I have to correct myself in regards to one of the myths. This topic is about women in the infantry not combat since combat has change thru technical innovations such as drones.

Women are important to the military but not in the infantry.

Not having women in the combat infantry has nothing to do with discrimination and everything to do with a successful and competent infantry force.

I believe this ad was used to attract women to the marines, but in many ways it portrays something you aren't likely to see.  The marines are the one armed service that still segregates men and women during basic training and generally keeps the sexes apart in the field, giving them separate quarters.  So when your generic high school girl looks at this ad and thinks that she can get in a scenario where she is equal to the boys, after seeing school sports programs that divide the sexes (and glorifies the boy's teams more in many occasions), she may jump in to test her mettle even though it's a fantasy.  

But, as Willy says, there is a reason why there is separation.  Yet Pheonix is right in saying that women have their place to contribute in the armed services, especially when it may be hard for some services to maintain their numbers without them and their generally solid service and commitment which can surpass many of those with Y chromosomes.   

Willy, didn't you put this picture up a little while ago?  Did you take it down?

Yes. I went back to reread the poster and make sure it was regarding female recruitment by claiming there is no difference between male and female soldiers.

Reminiscent of the newly formed All Girls Boy Scout Troop.

Huh? 

What next? Will there be an all white NBA team?  An all black women's hockey team?

Feelgoodism.

Interesting shinblind, regarding the all girls boy scouts troop. I can understand how confusing that kind of thinking can be for young minds. The problem with the leftist agenda, which is mostly a female driven, to bring equality to modern society is that men and women are different, not only biologically but emotionally and mentally.

wow... !  don't ever run for public office , Willy.....

Watch it Willy

I think snide has photos of you in blackface.

snide! Is that "wow" for all of the amazing statistics or for being shocked to find out that besides penises men and women are really different?

That's a very interesting video, Willy, and very educational.  Each of the differences noted refers to a scientific study or experiment (or more) for support, even though many seem to be readily observable over history and through my lifetime.  So unless you accept the dogmas of modern progressivism, with their cadre of science-deniers and diversity-deniers, it becomes rather obvious that men are different than women.  

Nice racist comment... And before you talk more nonsense look back to the Celtic team of mid 80s that won title with Center Robert Parrish out . The starting five were Bird , Walton, McHale, Ainge and Schecting... All white.
