In general-- I think women in combat is a bad idea.
In general- combat itself is a terrible idea.
Ermmmmmmm last I checked, yeah.

And some act as our guard dogs.

I dont think women should be banned- or gays either. But I do think- that it takes a rare person who is cut out for combat.
Thank God.

Prior to gays being allowed- officially- I heard they put them in food service. Which is a good idea. We all like to eat, right?
Post service I think every enlisted person should do a couple of years in the municipal dog-catcher section. Right skills for the right job, and all.

Sadly rape and sexual harassment is common in the service.
Yep, as well as rape of civilians by soldiers.

If my house caught fire and I relied on someone to drag me out- my hunch is a male could do it- a female could not... but I should would not care who did - if it got me out.
When you're actually choking on the acrid smoke at the top of your stairs, and a male+female firefighter at the foot of them are discussing which one is going to traverse the treacherous steps to haul you down, let's see if you're as equality-driven then.
