WASHINGTON — The Pentagon is lifting its ban on women serving in combat, opening hundreds of thousands of front-line positions and potentially elite commando jobs after generations of limits on their service, defense officials said Wednesday. http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/news-general/20130123/US.Women.in.Combat/ |

Don't women serve in combat in other countries? I think if women are so bent on being 'equal' to men they should expect to have to do some of the same difficult things men have to do. I've never been a full-out womens libber but always thought "ok if you really want to be equal gals, you should NOT be allowed to pick and choose which equal parts you like or don't like" :lol Personally I liked it when women were sort of put on a pedastal and treated with respect and protected. Instead of like "one of the guys" ..... "fend for yourself" - yeah call me old fashioned too Edited by Blessedx4, January 25, 2013, 7:39 am.

Two articles that people should probably read- http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/women-combat-be-careful-what-you-wish_697655.html http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323539804578260132111473150.html?mod=WSJ_hp_mostpop_read Hollywood romanticizes women in combat but the reality is that I wonder if many of the women demanding this have really thought it through. |

Be careful what you ask for, you're liable to get it. |
