[@arnoldsherrill6305]

@@yosour6733 not if it's properly constructed and maintained I think they would Greenlight it and by the way they've been running this course since the 1950s at West Point so this is nothing new ., there is a video on KZbin a few years ago when even the commandant of cadets and the superintendent at the time ran the course course

[@yosour6733]

​@@arnoldsherrill6305 well im just going off what happened to me when i was in public elementary and late middle school. at the time They banned dodgeball which was played with foam balls anyway so zero chance of inuring anyone but didnt stop people form getting hit hard in the face tgough... game got pretty intense for foam dodgeball..... but they also banned the pledge of allegiance we used to do every morning with our hands on our hearts they also banned the monthly physical grading test with pull ups, sit ups, and push ups and a timed 1 mile run. all because of possible quote on quote physical / mental / humiliation / or damage to a possible students psyche .... Word for Word they ended up replacing dodge ball with crab walk soccer with the same foam balls and chin up timed holds which were not required you could chose to participate or not and still get a passing grade instead of them doing fully extended pull ups which most of the average students couldn't perform anyway they also made it a rule that the PE Teachers couldn't punish a student for walking the daily mile which you were supposed to run or atleast jog and do your best and not use the time to socialize.. walking was usually an immediate write up/detention until ofc it wasn't bc that was supposed mental / physical abuse.. Apparently if you havent noticed most of todays kids and there parents have gone complete and utterly mentally physically Soft not all but definitely the greater sum. Where kids cry to there parents if they are forced to run or do an exercise/activity that they might not be able to do..and when they are forced to do said activity and fail....They see it as a public display of embarrassment or humiliation .... instead of a public display of physical education.... as that's what PE is if you cannot perform a single pull up you have been educated on the fact you are are weak and unhealthy.... Fact! yet parents will still be upset that there "kids are "upset" so then they meet with school boards and demand for change which turns into a witch hunt and eventual domino effect to "protect" the school students and the "parents" "kids".....emotional feelings instead of protecting and educating them on proper physical health. im not saying its a bad idea in fact i think its a Steller idea ...but im also aware that its just unlikely to happen due to our schools inability to do anything resourceful for our future generations other than shove a packet in there face and call it there we absolutely 100% need a revamp in PE School Programs all over America and get better aid at getting our youth in peak physical health like the programs seen here did --->kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHq2mH6ibcl1aa8 but you cant help people who dont want the help you cant physically force someone to do Two pushups when they are unwilling to do or even try to do just One not only would it help with physical health problems in America such as obesity and overall lazy ness and utter lack of moral responsibilities and motivation but it would also help the mental illness and general lack of self confidence and self awareness most Americans especially our youth have in themselves these days Because...when you look good you will most definitely feel good. A healthy body leads to a healthy mind.

[@janefelix3821]

@@yosour6733 The issue is that PE is coed and a lot of pre coed PE was highly physical for the boys, did contact sports. So would dodgeball work out if the teams are coed, imagine some 5'8" 170 lbs 16 year old boy throwing hard against a 5'2" 125 lbs girl in class. Remember, when dodgeball was big, PE was single gender. What about touch football, or wrestling? How would that work out? What about basketball?

[@yosour6733]

​@@janefelix3821 single gendered PE classes would work maybe alot of the complications would go away, better as you wouldnt have to worry about unfairness or boy hurting girl but then what about the ones that dont identify as a either???... then what cast them out like the leper they are....=lawsuit PE isnt seen as mandatory by most public school districts and that is the main problem kinda in a lose lose like i said cant force people to do stuff they dont want to especially while there more worried about kids and parents feelings, which is all the school districts are worried about at the moment. They could give 2 shits about actually making anyone's kid smarter or healthier as long as there pockets are filled with political funding our youth will suffer and that is just the sad fact and reality

She may not be as fast as the fastest men, but I am certain that she is faster than 80-90% of the men.

[@janefelix3821]

@@rogerd777 Maybe 85% or so. Israel which has conscription for both genders does similar tests and found out that maybe the top woman maybe able to outperform 15-20% of the men at best. If you take the top 4% of women, then the probably 70% of the men may outperform probably the remaining 96% of women. There are about 250 women and 850 men in her class. So the top 4% of women would amount to around 10. So take the 11 woman's time and figure out how many of the men come with a faster time. I bet of the 850 men, probably at least 700 would be the 11th woman and probably all 850 have times faster than all but the top 50 women, top 20%.

@@carbonking53 Although you make a salient point about all too commonly dismissed genetic and capability differences between men and women, I don't see how promoting a female cadet beating the all-time woman's IOCT record is a display of wokeness. They did the same for CDT Turner when he broke it in 2021. I didn't see or read the part where she ranted that she should now be a Airborne Ranger and can do everything her male counterparts can. There are plenty of guys who can perform the tasks you described that are mental midgets and not very intelligent so perhaps we should focus on individual strengths and where they can be best applied. If your service in, I'm guessing Afghanistan, is a point of frustration for you then you should work to get your head straight. Thank you for your service.

@@ryankuypers1819 Thanks for the lecture. Now let's address your point that is a complete slap in the face those that have gone into harms way. To call any service members "mental midgets and not very intelligent" is disgusting. Especially those that have seen and engaged in combat up close and personal. That level of bravery and self sacrifice is beyond any accolades any cadet or active duty member deserves for a ridiculous timed event in a cushy climate controlled gym. Some of the best warriors this country has every known were the guiet ones that didn't excel at timed obstacle courses. However, when the SHTF they showed bravery, strength, and commitment at superhuman levels. You appear to be the one that needs their head straightened.
