In Topic: Women filling combat roles

06 February 2013 - 09:51 PM

I think women should have the same chance to defend their country as the men do.

 

And while I don't doubt the prowess that women bring to the battlefield, my only concern would be in the upper body area. Lifting those huge shells into one of those large gun turret/ cannons is insane. Most women I know in the military don't just do the minimum standards for the PFA (I think that's what it was called back when I was in), they go above and beyond what is expected. A few were matching the guys.

 

When I went in, I went in the knowing the fact that I was going to be judged and looked down upon by the other sex, so I did all I could to prove I wasn't like the other females that also compose the female population in the military....the ones who won't lift a finger because they are "on their periods" or would skate off and disappear when the physical aspect of the job came into play. I can't list how many pants/ underwear I ruined because I worked through it. Granted...both my feet are shot to shit (achilles tendonitis in both feet when I left service, no arch in either feet anymore, have developed plantar fasciitis over the past 2 years and now have bone spurs due to the tendons in my feet being useless and not taking the demand I put on them)...a *cough* few mental health issues, but shit, nowadays, who doesn't have some kind of issue? Lol...

 

But I also understand the negative attitude toward it from the male side because I'll be honest in what I saw on my ship....most of the drama was started by the females. Not all...but most. When a female accuses a male of sexual assault/ harassment when he really did nothing wrong and was actually innocent on his part, the male is almost sure as hell going to get some serious consequences for actions that didn't even happen. I'm not sayin it doesn't happen, but when a psycho bitch wants a guy and guy says no, all she has to do is drop the word rape and shit hits the fan. This is what I have seen when I was in. From my gathering, it's slowly going down-hill. 

 

You got guys that abuse the system and females that abuse the system too. But the good ones make it count. I'm not ever going to say I was a great sailor, or even a good one, but I did my jerb and helped every time I could. :)
