If we want the most effective fighting force, we need to pick the most qualified capable man for the job, even if it's a woman.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think women are too valuable to be in combat.
Combat duty is strenuous and physically demanding, and I'm not the first person to notice that men and women are built differently. And while many will argue that women will only be allowed into combat arms units under the same requirements as their male counterparts, count me as skeptical.
This is still a man's profession, with a lot of men who intellectually and emotionally have not accepted that the military could be women's work.
Putting women in military combat is the cutting edge of the feminist goal to force us into an androgynous society.
My decision to register women confirms what is already obvious throughout our society-that women are now providing all types of skills in every profession. The military should be no exception.
On the contrary, woman is the best equipped fighting machine that ever went to battle.
Until the masculine role is humanized, women will tend to be much better at solving dangerous conflicts.
Women are needed in the military because there aren't enough soldiers, and we're seeing more women serve.
There are not as many women who support the national defense budget now as men. I really think there is a gender gap in the support for the large expenditures that are necessary to modernize the force.
Whether we like it or not, gender differences matter in a combat situation.
