Women as Navy SEALS - Good or Bad idea?

[@eamonshields2754]

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.

I’m a civilian and I want to go enlisted. According to what some BUD/S dropouts told me, one female SEAL candidate broke her legs in Basic Orientation (BO) which is the first two weeks of BUD/S, another female SEAL candidate broke her legs in BUD/S Prep and a third female SEAL candidate got rolled back in BO for stress fractures. 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?

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. If we tell everyone ok men and women can compete, in the end the women will lose unfortunately and how’s that fair for them? So much for equality

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.

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.

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".

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.

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.

I served with US Army Special Operations / Special Forces and you can call me a hater or whatever. But I don't think woman belong in Special Operations Forces, period. Yes not all woman are the same in more ways than physically. And yes i believe there are a select few who would do just fine in Special Operations in every way without lowering training and unit standards. But that BY FAR, isn't the majority of woman. But not lowering the standards for woman isn't realistic unfortunately. What happens is standards will be lowered in whatever areas in order to push more woman through in the name of political correctness and so the military can prove they're "equal". This as already been shown with the somewhat recent woman who have passed Ranger school. Numerous candidates in those classes including a few instructors (anonymously) have come out and said yes things were changed or and tweeked even in the slightest bit for these females to give them a better chance/higher % chance to make it. Even if in very small ways (doesn't have to be huge leaps). Lowering standards only has to start with one unnoticeably small small change/step. It will only grow from there until the standards for men and woman are night and day clear. This is all just my garbage opinion of course.

By far this isn't the majority of women that will make it through i agree, but it's by far the majority of men too, that's the whole point of the pipeline process. don't you think if a pipeline designed to weed out people that cant do the job is effective, then gender shouldn't matter as long as they can perform? the physical prowess argument, in my opinion, is bullshit because thats the whole point of buds. The only problems i can see arising are sexual assault/harassment and the men having an ego complex about working with women which is an issue with the mindset that men are indoctrinated into. If they treated them as just another team member and they can do the job, what other reason could there be?

The essence of Spec Ops is playing to the strengths of a unit.

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?

@@TheBothvar Nope, the US won't use the draft again. The Vietnam War and the political shitstorm the draft caused throughout the 1960s and early 70s put an end to it. Selective Service will probably be abolished at some point. What the military does now when there is a big war on is change enlistment standards and offer more bonuses and other incentives for people to join - and they can just 'recycle' their manpower and extend their active service (known as stop-lossing). That's why in Iraq and Afghanistan, you had Army soldiers doing 15 month tours and you have many guys with 3 or more deployments in their 1st enlistment. That's basically the model the military uses for conventional wars now. Politicians and military leaders learned after Vietnam that the public don't give as much of a shit when it's all-volunteer servicemen dying in wars. They might virtue signal with TYFYS platitudes, but at the end of the day, people know what they're signing up for.

@@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. I'm just being honest. Good luck.

If you cant throw a 175+ human to THE GROUND, and be very damn sure that you can KILL, possibly with your bare hands.... then you definitely shouldn’t be FIGHTING on the battlefield. Medics, support, transport, etc. Those roles, maybe if they can sling someone over a shoulder, pass the physical, give em a job ON the battlefield. *Combat* is a different fucking story. I don’t want women ( OR ANYONE ) from my country to be deployed somewhere, that we won’t be reasonably assured that THAT soldier, whomever the fuck they are, has a literal fighting chance. We cannot continue to disservice our countrymen and women in the armed forces ( more than we tragically already do ) by sending them to combat they just cannot win, based on sex or gender or whatever the fuck it is.

The comparison with the MMA really blew my mind. It is actually insane. They are not willing to have men and women fight in sports but when it comes down to the ACTUAL BATTLEFIELD, LIFE & DEATH SITUATION they are like noooooooooo, get them together. The stupidity of it is in truth palpable.

[@layth6857]

Exactly

[@denniswilliams2190]

This is definitely the best argument for keeping woman from these jobs but its still flawed. Combat is not MMA. It's a lot of walking, vehicle and weapons maintenance, navigation, communication, leadership, and much more. I would venture to guess that 99.9999% of people who have ever served in the military have not entered hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. So unlike the very specific subset of athletics that is MMA, where two opponents are competing to win a hand-to-hand fight, the small nuances matter less. Its the same reason MMA uses weight classes and strict weigh-ins before fights. Every little detail is exponentially impactful on the outcome of the competition. Combat arms jobs, however, are a much more complex set of tasks with an unlimited amount of factors differentiating one soldier's strengths from another's.

@@AmyRoulette They also don't have to carry their injured team mates out of the ring in fake wrestling. I'm all for women in any role in the military. What I am against is lowering entrance criteria. There are certain branches of the military that the strongest and fittest men have a hard time passing the entrance test and an ever harder time getting through training. The requirements to enter those elite units are the same for everyone and need to remain at a very high standard to maintain the integrity of these units. It's the same with basketball. The NBA doesn't say women can't play in the NBA there just haven't been any women good enough to make the cut to this point.

@@David35687 lol I was with you until you started making up your own facts. Please cite where "again and again" we saw widespread issues of "women starting to complain about the standards being too tough so they were lowered". Were standards lowered for pilots when females were allowed? Were standards lowered at Ranger school for female candidates? What about Airborne school? And please not your own version; cite a news article or something damn. I'll grant that it was wrong back in the day to make female vs male PT standards but I doubt it was because women complained; it was likely because females could only serve in support roles anyways and the military would love to fill its support roles with able bodied people even if they aren't in top shape.

If women want to be in special forces so badly then they need their own unit that does a different assortment of things and has different screening parameters (so you would actually have enough to build the unit). There is no world where women will work well together with men in war. Doesn't matter if she's butch, ugly, married, anything, men do not act the same way when there is a female present. Just think about the dynamic when you're hanging with the boys, or when there is any female present. It's completely different.
