SHE can serve in my military any day of the week.

I said I was not in favor of lowering standards multiple times now.

You are just grasping at straws.

Standards are being lowered either way regardless, so what you "favor" here is frankly kind of irrelevant.

Besides, I already addressed your argument in my second paragraph.

You don't have to "find" anything. Nothing has to change except there would be women. If they don't pass, they don't pass. If they do, then they do. There is no "finding" anything.

Sure, you do. How many women do you think are going to fail before you find one that even meets the minimum requirements? The vast majority of women that show up are going to fail and you will basically be waiting for the day when one shows up that can pass. How much time, money and effort are you really willing to waste?

And denying men (who are more likely to pass anyway) valuable spots in the process.

Exactly and that man not only will be better in the field, but more than likely surpass the minimum requirements instead of just meeting them.

Oh, so denying women who are qualified is okay but not denying men? You are being a sexist Gathomas.

That's not true. There are all kinds of men out there, even ones like you.

The man has a very good chance of surpassing the minimum requirements. You can't say the same for the needle in a haystack woman. Actually since it is so wasteful it's more like a needle pile with a piece of straw in it.

It's simple math, Chris. The men are more likely to meet the standards, surpass them, and become more effective soldiers once they make it out to the field.

You cannot deny this.

What do you mean. They have to bribe people to join the military with a free education. It's not like they have people exactly beating down the door to risk dying.

What on Earth does that have to do with anything?

The simple fact of the matter is that there are a Hell of a lot more men out there who can meet and surpass the physical requirements for the course than there are women. There always will be.

They also won't cause any of the same problems female soldiers tend to bring about, which will make them more effective in the field.

They're simply a better investment.

Oh, so now female soldiers bring about problems. I already know how you feel about women Gathomas, that they are weak and silly creatures, so spare me.

Ummm... No duh? What else do you want me to say here? :shrug:

Women are bound to introduce a certain element of "drama" to any environment they become involved in. At the very least, they're inevitably going to cause sexual tension and hanky-panky which will distract unit members from the mission at hand.

At worst, their presence might lead to resentment, violent squabbles, and even rape.

This isn't even addressing all the problems that might come about as a result of their greater tendency towards illness and injury.

You just admit it, that you don't care what's best, you just want to keep women out.

You are annoying me, so I'm going to have to step away from this discussion for a while before I get myself in trouble. :lol:
