Women in combat

Pfft. They were just standing to close to differentiate it from a third limb.

Surely you mean thumb.

[kudzu]

Surely you mention thumb.

Surely I didn't. Because that's a tiny appendage in comparison.

[songfourone]

And natural.

God/nature designed you for just that task.

This is so painful I am going to need some analgesia.

Go give birth again. It will be a lot less painful.

You can be whoever you want to, it's the Internet. Hell, tell everyone you are John Holmes stand in but look like George Clooney, your office is wallpapered in degrees, your wife was a lingerie model.............

[workerbee]

How long did it take, just out of curiosity?

Took me two months. I had first one at 60 and thought my appendix had burst. I've never spent a night in the hospital, but had to have the wife take there at 12 midnight. Had vey little pain after stone left the kidney, but it took a while finally exit the body. Another fun experience.
Back on topic... Women in combat... Rediculous.

Enough people around here have actually seen me in person to testify that I'm no George Clooney.

Nor John Holmes for that matter. Because I strive not to expose myself in public.**

** If I did, Johnny Wadd would have to change his name to Johnny Tiny.

Yeah, really. From the bladder outwards is merely extremely unpleasant. It's the kidney to the bladder that makes one squeal.

Yep. Nuts.

Yep. Nuts.

But they medicate you until you are almost comatose, yeah!!!!

[kudzu]

But they medicate you until you are almost comatose, yeah!!!!

As opposed to a spinal block where you can't feel anything ?

Hubby is not using a wheelchair.

Hubby is not using a wheelchair.

Sorry, thought you had posted that your husband was wheelchair bound. Where did I get that idea?

[workerbee]

That's up to you. I was given 10 OxyCodone and only used one.

"That said, physical differences between the sexes remains a thorny issue. Determining gender-neutral physical standards for an integrated infantry will be one of the most difficult tasks ahead."

Gender-neutral physical standards? Is that a new PC term which really means lowering the physical standards to accommodate women?

There are many areas that women are far more superior than men.

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia recently claimed that the 14th Amendment to the Constitution - which prohibits depriving "any person" of equal rights - does not apply to women. In other words, according to Scalia, women are not the equal of men. Guess what? Scalia is right but in the diametrically opposite way because it seems women are actually superior to men.

So now you admit to being sexist. At least you are honest about something and that is a first.

Another excellent reason to keep women off the front line.

[SalisburySage]

Gonna be lots of Courts-Marshal over fighting over women. I heard they give women shots that stop their menstruation for a year. WOnder what the unintended consequences of that will be.

Sure in many ways woman are superior to men. But my post was in regards to physical standards required in the military. If women want to drive trucks great. Or crunch numbers in the operations tent fine too.

I did no such thing, but you get an E for effort, or error. I was posting facts supporting woman's superiority in some areas, in response to the comment about training standards.
