As a soldier who served next to quite a few female soldiers, and as an open sexist:
I detest females being in the military.
1. They are the biggest distraction.
2. They cause unnecessary drama everywhere they are. Men fighting for their attention, men fighting over who gets to sleep with them, pregnancy, abortions, and the male tendency to save women is also a significant battle risk.
3. Obviously less physically capable.
Some of the best soldiers I served with were females, too, but, I'd still prefer to have none.
I was in a strange place in my stint. I was in the last basic training that was strictly all male. The stark contrast between that environment and the rest of my time around females of all ranks and MOSs (jobs) was completely different. I behaved differently. I am a "big brother." I felt obligated to shield and protect females in a way that I would never consider as correct for a fellow male soldier. I would have readily disobeyed orders in order to protect my friends, if I thought that was the correct thing to do, and, again, part of that was the male drive to protect females.
Pulling a trigger remotely doesn't protect you from trauma. We should not be traumatizing our women like that. It sucks for the men, too, but, it's not the same. So, my unpopular opinion is that they're should be no females in the military. Period. Full stop.
Well said, man! You've proven me wrong. Impossible to deny that. 👏👏👏
I have a very unique perspective on this since I was one of the last soldiers to go through a traditional all male basic. It makes it a lot harder to deny what I'm saying as valid, at least when I argue this with others.
Here's the thing, I'm not so sure if it was because women becoming soldiers brought forth the introduction of a new social environment within the military or if it was because male soldiers have yet to acclimate to the situation. 🤷♂️
There is no acclimation as long as there is any sexual dimorphism involved. The types of men who make excellent soldiers, not the psychopaths who will do anything, but the true men, will ALWAYS be the ones with the instinct to protect, abd what will they want to primarily protect? Women and children.
I just want to say that I find it a funny coincidence that you went through one of the last all male basics because I literally went through the last basic ever when I went to military school. Too many complaints from student's parents. Kids have no balls nowadays. Smh.
So you get it, at least that part of it.
You say no women in the military. Period. But, what about women being stationed in field hospitals as nurses and doctors etc.? 🤔
Did I stutter, Gary? Did I?
No. Females. In. The. Military.
Pe-ri-od.

Women who have no male protection are the ones that failed, not the men who don't want to bother with her.
She's so close with this take, yet so far.
