Anyone psychologist will tell you even throwing one women into a group of men, changes the whole dynamic of how that group operates.

[@derekgossett8008]

I can say that you are 100% correct. I started off in coed unit's as a navy Seabee, and eventually went over to the army and became an infantryman..... Far less drama and "fraternizing/ playing favorites" and scandalous shit going on in an all male unit.

[@LordSStorm]

Dynamics change all the time. People adjust. Whether it's loosing a team mate, a new guy joining the group, whether it is when blacks were allowed to join the military, or when they were allowed to integrate. You don't think unit cohesion and dynamics wasn't an argument then? Or when women were allowed to serve as pilots or on submarines. The truth is people evolve. And it usually works out. 10 years after women really start serving as SoF people will look back on this the same way.

[@mt8149]

@@LordSStorm I see what you're saying, but that's like comparing apples and oranges. From a social standpoint, integrating men and women is completely different from integrating different races or a new guy. The best you could hope for is women and men to be treated EXACTLY the same in every way (never gonna happen). And even then, there would still be disparity because there will always be some form of sexual tension from one side or the other.

You, sir, need a medal for having said that. In all my years, I haven't had any luck trying to explain to people that equality is not achieved by forcing everyone to do everything. Rather it is achieved by letting the people who can do something well enough do it. The fact that there are TWO different kinds of human genders should provide a clue enough for understanding that MAYBE they are supposed to be good at different things. Exceptions exist, but we don't make rules to establish exceptions; we make rules despite the exceptions. When the stakes are as high as in the Special Forces, the first objective is to strive for completion of the mission and then comes survival; gender equality has its places, this is not one.

I helped administer PT tests to females, as a female. I can't even count how many cheated. I saw everything from women refusing to even attempt to hit 90 degrees on a pushup, to literally bouncing their legs off the floor, and worse. Didn't make a lot of friends, and wound up giving up administering it cause it was so upsetting watching the blatant cheating. The standard is already lower for women, and the fact that most women I saw weren't even hitting that really upset me. Tried reporting it to higher ups, no one listened or did anything. And when I looked at the guys doing their pushups during the tests, 98% of them were doing it correctly. And when they weren't, and you called it out to them, they corrected it.... When my husband was in the fire service, alot of women there got pushed through without actually meeting the standard either, especially on the military side. One lady actually told him that if he died in a fire because some woman can't pull him out, "that's the price we all have to pay for equity".

I was an Aviation Ordnanceman in the Navy for 8 Years. I was first assigned to a forward deployed aircraft carrier which was all male. We had to upload and download dozens of weapons by hand each 18 hour day. Our launch and recovery time for aircraft was the best in the Navy. We crossed decks to an integrated Male/Female carrier and consequently, also got females in our squadron & shop. When 1 guy changed orders, they were replace by a female AO. The launch & recovery time diminished and our loading and downloading times doubled. Why? Women are not as strong as men by and large. We had 200lb guys being replace by 110 females with significantly less upper body strength. When you are trying to physically lift a 1,000lb bomb and you have 5 females instead of 5 males, good luck with that. In turn, try doing that 64 times in 1 day. The Navy looked at it from a numbers game, plug and play 1 male for 1 female. The unfortunate part is men and women aren't built the same way physically. And when life and death is on the line and it takes twice as long to put weapons on an aircraft, that will eventually cost lives.

As a female who was in a military combat position(went in as MP but my rate covered multiple jobs based on my command)I can definitely say they’re huge differences in the makeup of males and females. I was the most in shape female at my command however I was still only average compared to the males. It’s just the way it is. I was good at my job but even better at things that didn’t require my body to break down. There’s beauty in differences. I literally told another woman I don’t feel safe working with her because they had to change a physical standard for her and gave her a passing score in order for her to deploy with us on time… I even to this day believe that the female prt scores need to exactly match the mens because at the end of the day if we’re all deploying together we should pull the same weight. War doesn’t discriminate. And if you can’t pass the standard test across the board then the military shouldn’t be for you. Just my two cents for ppl to get triggered over.

Women have significantly less testosterone than men which is literally responsible for mens speed and strength. Surely you all see there’s physiological and biological differences so why should we then treat both the same. Men and women are both equal in value in society yes but being equal in value does not and should not mean same roles or equal roles. There are some things women will always be better at and there are other things men will always be better at. It really is that simple but people love to blur the lines. I heard go the big pharma is the one who profits the most from putting young kids on a lifetime of hormones (changing sex) so they fund it. I’m not a conspiracy theorist but that’s a pretty reasonable take… also some people say some woman are as fast and strong as men well they’re an exception to the rule and if they pass the standard for making it as a soldier or marine etc then fine but lowering the standard because they are not male and they’re female is not the way forward. If you are an exception to the rule then the rule shouldn’t be changed for the sake of woke just because a few made it… I fully agree with you by the way, we should play to the strengths of each other in everything.

The essence of Spec Ops is playing to the strengths of a unit. When you're talking about putting women on a force that primarily functions on the edge of human, specifically male, physical capability, you will almost certainly experience problems during deployment when those physical requirements cannot be met. What is said here is very much on the same line as that; Play towards their strengths. I can see all-female Spec Op units being more effective in a number of specific operations environments, like said in the video because of access, but also through networking and disguise. The military is function over form stripped down to it's core. Spec Ops is taking the best parts of any individual and tailoring them to a specific operation they will excel in. The best parts of women isn't brute strength, nor physical endurance, so why leave all other qualities in the dust?

None of them made it. Evan Eichler told me that one of the women he trained was medically dropped from BUD/S because she broke her ankle. According to the SEALSWCC Scout Team, most female SEAL candidates struggle with load bearing and just don’t have enough durability. Women have weaker bones and tendons than men, studies have shown that women develop stress fractures 3x more often than men. Do you have any advice for becoming more durable?

@@Anonymous18817 For starters, don't be a female. Once your chromosomes are XY instead of XX, you have a chance. Or you could face reality and recognize that the only way you're going to make it through the program is by cheating. Maybe YOU won't cheat, but politicians will cheat on your behalf. For a parallel, look at Kara Hultgreen's story - the first female Navy fighter pilot. She received multiple downs (3?) during her primary flight training. "Downs" are failure egregious enough that a single "down" is usually enough to end a pilot's course of training. She was denied further training until she wrote her congressman/senator. The politicians held up the promotion of the next CINCPAC until she was allowed to "graduate". This unsafe, less-capable pilot was making a carrier landing when she IGNORED "WAIVE OFF" INSTRUCTION, failed to go around, overcorrected, stalled the port side engine and crashed the plane, killing herself. She almost killed her RIO as well, but his seat ejected a fraction of a second earlier than hers - throwing him into the air instead of underneath the crashing aircraft. Here's video of the crash. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kara_Hultgreen The cause of the crash was plain pilot error. If you want to be the "Kara Hultgreen" of the Navy SEALs, go right ahead. But you're delusional and anything you get will not be something you earned.

Secondly, "perishers", "perishers military", "perishers group" comes up with nothing on any site or search engine I use, so please do give me these "Jedi" women you speak of. Thirdly, show me a woman without google that can outperform in endurance, strength and speed a male counterpart within the military. Also lastly if we're talking extraordinary pilots, Douglas Bader, look him up, he had more disadvantages than anyone else at the time so I'd really like your "Jedi" women to fly the plane he did, perform half as well with his same conditions. Lastly. It isn't "sexists" most men DON'T get to retry a bunch of courses, they often DON'T get to have special prep and they often DON'T have the PE standards changed for them, the women did, either they perform EXACTLY like the typical male candidate is to perform or they aren't accepted and the typical Male candidate only gets one retry on a course or two.

But nevertheless, some of you guys or gals (I don't know?) keep on saying over & over "what if" if they pass? If, if, if? The whole point is that they don't! This is for the same obvious reasons that women & men do not compete in most high level professional sports together? This has nothing to do with discrimination, oppression or any other SJW identity politics "isums"! One more thing... It really bugs me when so many groups try to pull the "race card" and the "card"_ it's not even theirs to pull while riding the backs of civil rights? (But that's a whole other topic). Think with common sense logic and not so much emotional rhetoric.... Why for many thousands of years throughout human history that women, for the most part, have not significantly participated directly in organized Nation State military combat? The answer is simple and not complicated if you choose to see the truth of facts in life and human physiology? The only thing that makes a bit of difference is our advances in modern technology. However, human beings are still the same as they always have been throughout history and are likely to remain so for quite some time!

[@Castle24]

When I was 17 (33 now) in high school, my football team had a few girls try out. All of them did great until we put the pads on. I'll never forget the first hard tackling drill we learned was angle pursuit. My coach saw I was paired up with one of the girls and pulled me aside. I was already 6'0" and rapidly approaching 270 lbs. at that age, but coach got in my face. "If you don't hit her as hard as you hit anyone else, you will play JV for the rest of the year." Cut to poor Emily getting completely earholed, with a severe concussion, ambulance immediately called, etc. I don't have a problem with women playing sports or anything else. But if my coach had not threatened me like that, I'd have probably laid off the throttle on every hit after that. And that's precisely why this argument is a big deal. When you talk life and death, there is no discussion. Whoever hits harder wins. And women don't.

[@rapturelimited534]

Daaaaaamn. What was the aftermath of poor Emily?

[@redplanet76]

Yeah what happened? Don’t leave us hanging.

[@Castle24]

Well for a couple weeks after I was jokingly called a woman beater by random people. Emily and all of the girls eventually quit during tryouts. Most of the guys did take it easy on the girls when paired up because Emily had gotten such a severe concussion. And i began seeing what my coach was getting at. During school, she didn't even look at me for like two weeks while i tried to apologize. Eventually she heard what coach had told me and forgave me. She never really wanted to even play football except to be our kicker. We eventually also had the Army recruiters come into the school and do fitness tests on people, and she did very good. They did stuff like how many pushups and pullups you could do. How fast you could run two miles. And climbing a rock wall. She actually did great but never went for the Army dream. She went onto community college and i believe works for child protective services. Not sure if that's what you guys wanted to hear lol. Immediately after the hit i just remember her laying there lifeless while they used ammonia salts to wake her up. She threw up, cried, and they put her on a stretcher to cart off the field. She had some trouble with lights at school for about a week after too. Severe concussion ain't no joke. At the end of the day i felt horrible about it. And it definitely made me aware of how fragile some people can be. I've known tough women in my life, but I'll never agree with the premise a single one of them are fit for special forces next to men. A battlefield is just no place for a woman. Can't change my mind Steven Crowder.

@@Anonymous18817 Honestly, that MOS isn't suitable for a woman. Here's why I say that. Not only is the training rugged, but the ability to carry a male team mate for miles over difficult terrain is nearly impossible for a female. Also, ammo is not unlimited like in movies, you only carry 240 to 300 rounds of ammo. Which is quite heavy. If you're pinned down and low on ammo, you might have to fight hand to hand. You're exhausted, sleep deprived, hungry, and you have to physically fight a man in close quarters combat. It ain't like in the movies where the Black Widow jumps on a man's neck, swings him to the ground. Punches him and knocks him out. That's Hollywood and it's a lie. You are not going to be fighting in an ideal situation where you're well rested, fed, and the guy is the same size or smaller than you. Being combat arms sucks, long nights, humping a heavy ruck, being hungry and sleeping in the rain. It's not glamorous, it's pain. If you cannot carry a male team member 2 or 3 clicks over rugged terrain to get to an LZ in 3 hours when you're tired and hungry and injured yourself, then you are believing what Hollywood fed you.

As a female that served in the Army as Military Police, I have to agree with this guy. I think there are some really mentally and physically strong women out there but at the end of the day they don't compare to most men in Tier 1 operation groups. It is my experience that a lot of the men in a unit end up carrying their own weight as well as the weight of their female counterpart. I've seen it. Females do not belong in any kind of special operations forces.

@@kuifjehaddock5451 of course you don't care if a woman takes the job instead of you. You don't have a group of men you'd have to give your life to protect. A woman can't possibly carry a wounded 200 pound man with excess gear 6 miles to safety including her gear. Its impossible even if she's injected with the highest grade testosterone. There are lives on the line and women aren't emotionally built for that kind of stress. Biologically their structure isn't built to handle that weight physically and mentally speaking. Their bone density is significantly less than a healthy man. Women have their places in many things but special operations is and never will be their route and that's okay. The world is unfair, and if a woman is upset about that than she is 100% not ready to be in special forces because emotions don't exist there. There's a job to do and that's it.

Let's come to the engineers: If you look outside the army there are also very few female engineers just like there are very few male nurses. This has to do with evolution. Evolution had the effect that women generally have more emphathy which makes them perfect nurses. And the same applys to engineering. Regarding the higher positions: This again can be explained with evolution, men have an easier time managing and directing groups of people. Now you might say that comparing the modern human to a cavemen is dumb or doesn't make sense, or that these mechanisms aren't needed in todays society which is completely right. But the problem is that mechanisms that have been developed and in place for thousands of years don't just dissapear in a few decades.I also wanted to say that i think that women should take more represented espacially in higher positions and in the military.
