History offers no evidence for the proposition that the assignment of women to military combat jobs is the way to win wars, improve combat readiness, or promote national security.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Forcing women in or near land combat will hurt recruiting, not help.
I think women are too valuable to be in combat.
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.
That was not what men and women fought for during the war.
And while national military forces have historically resisted the full participation of women soldiers, female talent has found plenty of scope in revolutionary and terrorist groups around the planet.
Women are needed in the military because there aren't enough soldiers, and we're seeing more women serve.
I have no problem with women in the military, if that's what they want to do.
There is no reason why the women of the country should not greatly advance themselves.
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.
