Incompetence, bad training or negligence are not gendered traits. This video could have literally been about any random sub-par military recruit. Not everyone, in any army, is equal. Not every team or squad will be exclusively filled with 6'10" juiced-up super soldiers. Going after her gender because she's doing shit wrong is little more than an adhominem. If anything this would indicate a failure in training, more than an issue with mixed genders. Everything that was said in this video could have been said by someone who doesn't like having a smaller guy on their team.
I (6'2") weighed 240lbs with all my gear and weapon.
The shortest guy (5'2") could put me over his shoulder, also in full gear and carrying a weapon, and walk 100 yards with me like that.
The tallest woman (5'10) with no gear on could not. She couldn't even drag me 10 yards without stopping.
One of those people could carry me if I was wounded. One of them could not.
Therefore one of them belongs in combat and the other does not, because being unable to perform basic infantry tasks is a DEATH SENTENCE for you and those around you in combat.
So no, it isn't about the training. It's about the reality of the situation; most women are not strong enough physically to do the job.
Fuck, most men aren't strong enough. Why do you think combat arms has higher physical standards than combat service-support? For the fuck of it?
They will endanger the men and the nation for equality. If you ask me, they are a bunch of traitors as there's no excuse for this level of incompetents.
That was always an option, and non combat roles are upwards of 10x the number of combat troops.
The argument that we shouldn't draft women because they can't serve in combat has ALWAYS been a bald faced lie. It's the "wink, wink" political theater that justifies not drafting daughters and wives.
I heard a fire chief put it this way once "you can have the finest department in the world with nothing but male firefighters, you simply can't have the finest in the world with only female. So what do we NEED female firefighters for?"
He was talking about forced quotas, and it's hard to argue with.
Yeah. Encourage them to try out, put them through the same testing with the same requirements, but do not mandate for them to be hired. It will get people killed.
If women were as biologically strong as men why would we exclude them from the army? Nobody is going to put their pride as men above having the stronger army.
A much more harsh version of the metoo movement occurred in the early 2000s in the military. A number of cases, with guilty verdicts, were thrown out for clear reasonable doubt within the case.
However, when attending any type of sexual assault training, the men and women were separated. The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) was misinterpreted and the “instructor” would brow beat us repeatedly.
Further, court martial panels (similar to a civilian jury) are hand selected by commanders. The only people ever selected were those who were sycophants who licked the boots of the commanders.
The brow beatings were enough for me to decide to get out in the early 2000s. I cannot even imagine being a commander of a mixed combat team now.
Up until a few years ago, there were cases where special operators (SEALs, Delta, or PJs/CROs) were convicted of sexual assault but never within their unit.
The combat social experiment will be an unmitigated disaster and we will have nobody to blame but ourselves.
Janice Fiamengo has discussed this before, as there's a chapter in her book by an ex-soldier. He talks about the fraternisation that occurs, the increase of rape allegations and pregnancy rate before/during deployment, the weaponisation of false allegation by rejected women... blah blah blah.
As soon as we have another large conflict (OIF/OEF like 2005-2006 with 200K+ deployed from all branches, female desire for combat roles will drop rapidly. Don’t get me wrong. I served with some bad ass women, and we even lost some, but the AVERAGE military female (much less the average US hambeast) cannot keep up with combat arms male soldiers. Much less all the drama you have to deal with when you incorporate sexual activity into a combat unit. That alone is reason to segregate.....much like schools do and have done (mens’/women’s segregated schools).
Don’t get me wrong, women contribute to the US Armed forces and lets not even get into how badass some of the Israeli female soldiers are....but segregation is a good thing in combat units. Keep the moral gear (women) in the rear echelon for R/R purposes. ;)
You hit the nail on the head. I served with some bad asses (both male and female). This video is a completely inaccurate representation by a few military Karen’s to virtue signal.
I am so tired of this shit, it goes without saying that men are just physically stronger than women, I cannot understand the dissonance these people have where they need separate sports leagues and different standards for entry yet are somehow supposed to be taken seriously as an equal in physical prowess. How is this even a topic of conversation?
This honestly is just common sense. I can’t believe some people actually think we should compromise our country’s safety just for political correctness.

Women should still be put on the draft and assigned to non-combat positions if it comes down to it.
