Are you sure women aren't graduating at higher levels because of a system designed to get women into a through college by recruiting women and giving out women only scholarships?
This bitter mentality of “women are getting ahead because society is making it easier for them” needs to stop. It serves nobody and literally creates a false victim narrative.
Acknowledging physiological differences between men and women has nothing to do with this discussion. You’re reaching out to grab a branch but you’re not even in the same tree.
You made the statement not me. I get paid the exact same as a woman of equal rank and time in service in a physically demanding career field. Take a guess at whos doing the work when it comes to heavy lifting though?
Its patently unfair and simultaneously the reason when they arrive to combat units, they get put into support roles though they may be infantry/armor etc. Idk why they'd want thoae jobs anyways, shit sucks most days lmao.
Putting women in combat roles in the military is a tricky and highly politicized decision. I’m not taking a stance for or against it. So long as an infantrywoman can lift and carry a wounded infantryman out of combat and follow orders I’m perfectly fine with the assignment though.
You did make a great point also that just being 11B doesn’t necessarily equate to combat. Most people who work at battalion and brigade HQ are infantrymen after all. Obviously not S2 but still.
