1 in 3 FEMALE american soldiers are raped!!

No, that's a reason to give the men more discipline/give harsher punishments for rape. You can't deny someone their right to do something simply because they face a greater danger because law and order isn't particularly enforced there. That's the same reason women in some Arabic countries aren't allowed to leave the house unaccompanied by a male adult.

Your logic: women face a danger of getting raped if they serve in the front lines, so they shouldn't be allowed to serve in the frontlines.

Well guess what, EVERYONE on the frontline faces the danger of death because of war, and yet they still chose to serve there. If no one was allowed to do something based purely on the fact that it was dangerous to do it, then by your logic frontline military should be completely banned for everyone (I think death is worse rape).

In fact, as a white person you should be banned from going into black ghetto neighborhoods because you face the risk of getting shot. You shouldn't be allowed to smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol or eat junk food.

I'm personally all for the person's individual freedom to do anything they want that's within their capabilities, regardless of how harmful it may be to themselves. As long as they don't harm anyone else, and as long as everything is done by the state to enforce rules that protect them against other potentially harmful people, then any risk they take is their own, including hard drugs, going to wars, getting abortions and even suicide.

"Apart from biological differences..." which include every single possible difference there is..

I expect somebody without credible sources to not get involved at all.

No, it doesn't. Biology isn't everything

- just because someone is a different gender to you doesn't mean that they are completely different.

Wut? You said there are no differences between m+f except the biological. I then said "biological differences" include all possible differences there could be anyway. You're now saying it doesn't? So... there ARE other differences?

u mad?



mind = BLOWN

You said there are differences. I said there aren't aside from biological ones. You then said that includes every possible difference. I said it doesn't - because it doesn't. Biological differences would be genitals etc,

other differences could be, in the context of the military; the right to choose their career, the right to defend their country, their loyalty. I am saying that men and women both have these rights. I don't understand what you don't understand...

That is why being a different gender doesn't necessarily mean they are completely different.

They could have the same likes and dislikes, have the same IQ or strength. Just because someone has different genitals doesn't mean they are a different species.

So you mean different opportunities afforded to them rather than actual differences between the people.



What does "completely different" mean? Are any two things completely different?




Are you one of them biology scientist people??!?!

You could say the same with 'risking' yourself by visiting your relatives in East London, because you might get mugged. It is against the law to mug someone, but doesn't mean it will happen, because it 'shouldn't' happen. Therefore you will continue to visiting, because that was your intention.

Look.. there are certain jobs that women just shouldn't do. Its common sense its unsafe!!
secondly men and women are designed differently the average man is stronger than the average women.(you can look that up)

BTW there are plenty of other jobs out there that women are more then capable of doing.

What do you expect in the world's biggest terrorist army?

Being in the army is not a full test of strength and some women are stronger than some men,so should these women not be counted?The main thing the army tests is gun-shooting and women are just as good at targeting with firearms as men and they might have more strategy because women are more intelligent than men.

Oh FFS, piss off.




Wow, how am I going to unpick this.

First off, the most basic aspect of the army is fitness, if you're not strong enough or fit enough you don't get in, be it a man or a women.

Secondly, the army is a lot more than just being able to shoot a gun straight.

And finally, Women are more intelligent than men? Please provide evidence for such a outlandish statement.

Women have outperformed men,in all forms of education,including GCSE,A-Level and University and Women will certainly have other qualities needed for the army and men and women can work together with a varietry of different skills.

1) Yes. That's what I've been trying to say. That there are no differences in what men and women can do.
2) Yes. Slugs and people have no similarities apart from biological ones.
3) Umm... What sort of biology scientist person? O.o
