some females are tougher than some wimpy males

@Esther723

Some Women can, and if Women work out, we are alot stronger than people think. The fact that women don't build biceps as much is what makes us appear weaker. I can carry ALOT more than people think. If a woman can meet the physical requirements of combat they should be allowed in it, no special treatment or lower standards.

@Kavar0351 Go say that to a Marine and watch what happens

@seandlulis Yeah I hear that a lot. I find itto be an excuse to not let women do it.

@jualkyn It's a military standard. Women didn't ask for it.

[Fallen9019]

Women can do anything a man can do. Not everybody can be a marine but the people who can earned the title the same exact way. No matter your race, sex or age.

Bitch gotta penis

Bitch gotta penis

Ya know I just said that out of the blue for no reason

[seandlulis]

For those of you who havent been there, there are reasons that r legit for women not being in combat. Its whether or not they can do it... Think about this: a male leader having to dish out orders would one way or another have a bias towards women, it would be very hard to send a women to a damgerous thing and possibly lose her wen tgeres lots of men aroumd to waste, its hard to explain but the psycholgy of it is mostly subconcious, n visa versa

@Marynicole830 Yet women expect special treatment when a man hits them.
