The question was: Should women be allowed to serve in the infantry?
The answer was: Yes they should (be allowed), and yes they do serve in the infantry.

To clarify, see "From" in my profile. (← Right thar)

To clarify even further, women in the military in Finland seldom stay as cannonfodder, but end up serving in the infantry as corporals or higher (still on the field). This is mainly due to the fact that the women who enlist (as we have conscription for men, voluntary for women) are motivated and with a goal to specialize themselves.

Does this answer your "what"?

Quite. This is what I don't get about America. In everything from politics to religion to sexism to racism to military, we fail to see, acknowledge or even seek views about these subjects from other countries/world powers.

Well here is the thing, if your thinking about getting laid while you are engaged in combat, then YOU are the problem and not the women.
This is true..but what about the whole reflexive perve thing?

Women have two holes down below, aren't as tough (read: able to put up physical resistance) as men, and when captured would become preferred rape victims due to the majority of their captors being heterosexual and male.

No. Women are weak irrational creatures and have periods.

No.
In combat seeing a female comrade die is likely to be more shocking than seeing the same happen to a man.
There are certain things hard-wired into a man's brain, hearing a woman scream creates certain reactions which would be a liability on the battlefield.
What do you suppose would happen to female POWs?

I bet heterosexuals would rather rape a woman than a guy.

as i have said in former topics on this forum it's a very clear no to this.

quote from myself
I really don't think that it's worth the time, effort and money trying to educate a female soldier. okay maybe they can get around their period and serve as a proper soldier should, but the chances of having a succesfull female soldiers is much lower than of a male since he got 40% more muscle in his upperbody and 30% ind his lower body

http://jap.physiology.org/cgi/content/abstract/89/1/81

first of all girls got to catch up to this disadvantage and then their fellow soldiers have properly already gotten 20/30% more muscle than the awerage man, if not more. simply men can get more muscle than women so it makes no sense employing women who can't compete with a man if he did the same amount of training. it just cost to much money and it puts a stress on the womens fellow Boot camp grunts, because she will most likely have to getting her shit together when all the other lads already is far ahead of her. of course there can be exceptions but they are so rare that they are not worth looking for since you can get 10 men of the same build or higher than the woman at the same cost in recruitment and training.

Apparently the female body may be slightly better at coping with high G-forces than the male body, so possibly you could let the guys be the infantry and leave the skies to the women?

Its physically easier to stick your stuff inside the hole which women do not share in common with men.

Stereotypical, and true.  There may be a few exceptions, but we are talking generalisations here.

As previously said, I've no doubt that exceptions occur, but we're talking generalisations.  Fact is, with a female prisoner one more barrier - the sexuality barrier - isn't there, thus rape is more likely.  (Though, also not certain)

She might get raped if the talibs catch her. Did anyone tell the women that? I think they would change their minds.

If they want to fight yes. If they joined the military for the GI Bill, then GTFO.

Touchy subject and one that you'll find a lot of walts start to emerge and think they know everything about it.

Simple answer, no. I work with female soldiers, and they struggle carrying the men. They need their own rooms, their own showers, they need to be paired together on exercises. They have periods, they are not as strong as men, they are a distraction to men, they make jobs harder.


There's the reasons. As for the countries that allow women, you'll notice they aren't battle proven. Countries that are in 1 or more wars a decade use men. For the above reasons. Plus what's the point. We have enough Men going for infantry as it is. Infantry is the fullest job right now.
