Women can't train like men and they shouldn't train with them, ergo they shouldn't serve with them in combat.
Bullshit, Mick.
both MY daughters and granddaughter to boot could hold their own in the military....IF they believed in wars and didn't leave the country first....which at least part of them don't. The other....well we'll just have to see how that littlun feels later on.
Keeping men and women separated from job opportunities because they might lose control and rape each other is absurd.

I think we are approximately the same age. I invite you to come 'train' with me at my gym, Mick.
Damn...

Off topic...
I was in THAT war too, Mick.
And the soldiers WERE NOT spit on. That is fiction not fact.
