Equal rights

Have you seen active service kate ? Have you been in the army ? Unless you have you are not qualified to speak on this subject. You constantly remind punters that if they have not worked as an escort they are not qualified to speak on the subject.
As a former army ranger I can tell you that women are treated better than men in the army. They get preferential treatment.

Power rangers is not a real army dick

Everyone should do some sort of national service when leaving school and learn some trade or other and the country might just be in a better place.It would have been a real eye opener for some of the lazy twats that never try to get work and live off the system like blue bottles on a shit

Point of order.
Blue bottles are attracted to rotting flesh in which they lay eggs that develop into maggots

And the circle (of life) is unbroken, by and by Lord, by and by.

Yeah, everybody should be sent to the desert to protect the brown people working in the poppy fields from the other brown people that we don't like this week for some reason or the other.

An eye opener indeed.

I thought you were talking about the draft. And anyway, has anyone mentioned these studies to Israel? Front-end roles were opened up to women who need to make the same standard as men.

I was.And I somehow managed to muddle the two issues. Basically it comes down to the military suffers because of equal rights.


Israel is a country that lives under threat of an existential nature, which is why everyone does national service. All hands on deck etc. I use to date an Israeli chick, she told me when she was in the service they use to be made sleep with a loaded sidearm beneath their pillow. I told her to stop being silly and go make me a sammich.

[Mister Anderson]

Since Israel is under such an existential threat, they should be ignoring this PC nonsense in favour of the optimal all-male mix? What gives them the option to indulge in this PC nonsense?

The numbers. When you include both sexes you end up with twice the numbers. That makes up for the diminished effectiveness f mixed sex combat units. They'll try telling that women are equal to men in combat situations but that's just horseshit.

Because Israel is under such an existential threat, it cannot afford the nonsense of not having everyone who can tote a weapon playing their part.
But I do agree that “pc nonsense” does weaken the military.
Some women are stronger than some men, indeed some women are stronger than most men, but generally men are considerably stronger than women.
But, if you are talking about a general “draft” you have to take into consideration most military personnel will never see the “front line” and will be employed in a vital support role.
However, general thinking nowadays is that it is volunteers you need, not conscripts.

Who would have thought that people that chose to do something are more motivated than those forced to do it

How much military contact is hand to hand combat?
Would weapon mastery not be more beneficial? I dont think a vagina matters with a gun.. I go clay pigeon shooting I can knock the socks off most.
Plus widely proven women cope with pain easier so if shot we can keep on the gun which is prob a soldiers greatest asset in the field or frontline

Put a 50lb backpack on, do a 20 mile hike, then see how accurate you are with those clay pigeons. Chances are that if you're a man your aim will be a lot more sure.

How did you travel to the clay pigeon shooting? Did you walk for days carrying your weapon and ammunition and food and shelter and everything else you needed? When you hadn’t slept properly or eaten properly for days on end?
Did the clay pigeons wait patiently for you to arrive or did they travel to meet you and ambush you on the way?
Can you do a minimum of 50 press ups-in 2 minutes, 50 sit-ups in 2 minutes and 7 upper body pull-ups?
Can you carry two Jerry Cans each weighing 20 kilograms along a total distance of 150 metres? With your arms by your side and carrying one Jerry can in each hand you will be expected to complete this course in less than 2 minutes.
Can you run 2.4km (1.5 mile). The time you have to complete the run will vary depending on the position within The Army that you have applied for. Basic British Infantry– Run Time 12.45 Parachute Regiment - Run Time 09.40

I could go on.
