    I'll make a few points here. In the same way men and womens bodies are designed by nature- in the same way that their is a born difference, there is a born difference in the two sexes minds. One is the male which is better adapt for killing, protecting and providing. The other one is the female mind, for norturing, caring, and being nice. They have breasts for a reasons and vaginas. Men have high upper body strengths and better physique as compared to women to hunt and kill and defend. They also have a killer instinct.

    PTSD rates are something like 2-3x higher for women. Men are involved in far more violence and traumatic events like prison terms and war deployments, but still handle things better.

    They're bodies make them better suited as well. We can do more push-ups and run faster which are traits that are make us good the military. Yeah maybe their is that one in one thousand females who can complete army ranger school, but that is the exception not the rules. Most of those women were tomboys and worked out and did some hardcore sports. If they're butch like this this a perversion of nature. Sure maybe a woman can pass boot camp and be a good infantry man, but it's not ideal. In the same way as an eight year old who's high on crack can drive a car, it's not ideal.

    Another Woman to Attempt Marines' Infantry Officer Course

    One female second lieutenant is set to start the course in approximately 90 days, a spokesman for Marine Corps Training and Education Command, Capt. Joshua Pena, told Military.com.

    The officer, who attempts the course after having completed the service's basic officer training courses, will be the second woman to try to do so since the Marine Corps opened all combat jobs to women, Pena said.

    During an evaluation period that extended from September 2012 to June 2015, 27 female officers attempted the course to assist the Corps with its research on women serving in ground combat roles, but none was able to pass. During the same timeframe, two other female officers attempted to pass the course in an effort to qualify for the ground intelligence military occupational specialty, but they were also unsuccessful.
