Sorry, boys and girls, but I must post this.

In the US, feminists have wanted women in combat for many years...always trying to prove something...like...maybe they are fools!? Sorry if you disagree, but no man in his right mind wants to go to combat or send their son (my son enters the Marines in 3 days; I do not like it, I am a father), so who would want to send wives, mothers, daughters and sisters into combat!? Only crazy people! In the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, female soldiers got pregnant by the thousands so they could leave the combat zones. They sent them home by the plane load, and our feminists still don't get it! (Remember, our feminists are much more aggressive than yours.)

This is not about equality. Now, 50% of all female Marine recruits can not even perform 3 pull-ups (two-handed chin pull). Does this sound like women are equal to men!??? Does anyone even expect them to be!? When I was in a combat line unit, we must perform minimum of 10 - 20 pull-ups; 12 was a good score...they keep lowering the quality of the person, whether male or female. They are now trying to decide what to replace this test with...first option...let them hang from a bar for 15 seconds until they fall off!? This a far cry from running 10K every day in combat boots! Pretty soon the test will include sitting by the pool, drinking lemonade in the sun, while someone rubs lotion on their back! Maybe have to lower requirement if there are no sunglasses! Should be no problem getting my comments past Marina-manager; I am an American veteran. Maybe it's time for me to come and live in a Slavic country. Still some common sense in your part of the world! What do you think, Steve!??? Are men and women equal!? I can think of 20 things women do far better than men, but armed combat is not one of them!!!
