why is Sup Forums against women in the army again?
>>implying strength matters when modern arms shoot 3000 rounds per minute And who's carrying those weapons and other heavy equipment. Lets not forget that men have better spatial awareness and better coordination. >>Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Could a woman carry a 200lb man off the battlefield?

they're actually more likely to get ptsd in similar circumstances i think.
Camden Flores
I'm not against it as long as they don't drop the standards. Women need to perform as well as men because if they aren't up to the task it gets dangerous in combat

>>Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment The average woman can't cope with a man on the opposite side of the road staring at them for more than 1.7 seconds. Only during Childbirth.

WOmen are a full SD more neurotic than men, so they literally have lower emotional pain tolerance. They are over represented in anxiety disorder, stress disorders and depression. Where the fuck are these studies coming from?

We have mixed-gender units here. I was in the army for 6 years, 3 of which I was a sergeant, and let me tell you this: There are exceptional woman who I would gladly have in my team, but they are the exception and not the norm.

I'd rather be fighting with men by my side than a 140 women. They are also a distraction, what if a soldier decides to save a women rather than their officer. Leave the fighting and dying to the men.

If you told Annie Oakley to camp out with a sniper rifle I'd imagine she's be pretty formidable up to the point that she had to march 30 miles with 100 pounds of gear at which point it would become apparent that a 5 foot tall hundred pound woman is perhaps not the ideal body type for infantry.
A very small fraction of women could be physically fit enough to do the job of an average male infantryman; but even then their mere presence would fuck up unit cohesion because half the men would be trying to fuck them while the other half tried to stop them from getting fucked. Naturally a feminist will object that it "isn't fair" that women should be barred from combat because men can't keep their heads around them; but war isn't fair and accordingly the military isn't fair. The mission and the unit comes first and if a woman wants to be in combat despite the knowledge that her presence will most likely make the unit less effective then she's not placing her country first, she's placing her own interests first and there's no place for that bullshit in the military.

thats complete BS, women are twice as likely to get PTSD
womans will make men jealous and vise versa , which will decrease performance of the soldiers. it they want to be in the army then they should be in different platoons, separated from the males.

Explain to me how a tiny, 5'5 woman is going to carry around a M240B that weighs just as much as she does? Not including the dozens of 7.62x51mm belts that are required to run this weapon. Strength and physical endurance are key for service men. If you can't carry your gear and your battle buddy with his gear on your back, then you shouldn't qualify to serve. It's not as simple as just putting 900 RPM. There's much more to serving in the military and there's a reason there are high PFT standards.
>Women are too emotional to be in the army >Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment
Quote what study you looked at. Difficult mode: No VICE, Vox or Buzzfeed. The USMC study on the Lioness program has shown that all female and female-male units under-performed when compared to an all male unit.
Lastly, list me one country that has ever been considered a competent and fearsome fighting force, that at the same time incorporates all male, female and mixed units. There's a reason it's a man's job, and when females get mixed in - they're usually in all-female units. Retards like yourself tend to not think about female-male relationships and how this tends to affect field efficiency. How does your squad or platoon leader handle with the emotional bullshit that develops between men and women? What do you do if people get knocked up? How do you handle these situations, in potential combat situations? It's a waste of resources and a risk at that. Women are not fit to serve the military in any combat capacity. That is just a fact and your sorry liberal agenda has got to go Mr Leaf.

>implying strength matters when modern arms shoot 3000 rounds per minute Being in the military requires more than just firing a gun. You also have to be able to have the physical strength to overcome obstacles, and carry heavy objects such as your weapons or injured comrades.
>Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment Sauce? Even if that's true, being in the military also requires being calm and rational during the high stress situations themselves, not just after the fact. Also there are probably a lot of betas in the military that will do anything to protect their special princess while endangering the other male soldiers.
Ethan Rodriguez
>Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment
I'd like to see these studies. As a general rule, women are absolutely terrible in high stakes situations where you have to think on your feet.
I wouldn't be surprised if women were less susceptible to PTSD though, they can rationalize practically anything.
Dominic Sullivan
The only bad things is that your parents choose them for you without your opinion.
Women cannot run as fast and have weak upper body strength. How the fuck are they ever going to carry a wounded soldier off the battle field under fire? They're fine being in the military, just not in a combat role

>implying strength matters when modern arms shoot 3000 rounds per minute It does when your comrade is wounded but WHUPS you can't carry them.
>Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment There's a giant study by the US military showing women are worse than men in every metric by a notable margin, from being able to carry their equipment or an injured person, to the number of broken bones / other injuries they sustain during normal routine or the time it takes to get a task done.
I almost wish I'd saved it, but I didn't think anyone would seriously argue otherwise then, nor do I believe you're doing anything but funposting now.
Nicholas Jenkins
Since it's very rare that people post concrete answers to this question, I'll begin.
Biological reason: Women are on average weaker than men physically and in terms of endurance. They struggle to put on muscle mass at the same speed that men do, and struggle still to keep it over time. One need only glance at training standards of the past several decades in order to identify that these standards have been consistently lowered in order to allow women to gain entry. This lowering of standards affects not just women, but the entire military and its capability. It is worth remembering that most soldiers are still required to carry up to 60lbs of equipment.
Typically men have twice the lean muscle mass as women, and this working in tandem with larger size allows greater strength and explosive power used in sprinting and throwing. It's also evident in organ size, where lungs and heart are typically between 10-12% smaller in size in women than in their male counterparts. Women also have 10% lower hemoglobin count than males, which is crucial in transporting oxygen around the body.
Unit Cohesiveness: Anyone in the military can tell you that individuals must work together in tandem in order to function correctly, common examples being tank crews or infantry squads. According to interviews with Soviet women who served in the army against the Germans during WW2, they were often forced to leave equipment behind or get male counterparts to carry it for them. When a soldier is unable to do his or her job and forced to get someone else to do it for them, it will break down unit cohesion and effectiveness. Additionally it was found that in mixed combat units belonging to the Israeli army, that casualty rates were far higher than the male-only units as the inability for women to adapt to an environment requiring greater physical strength led to a further break down in unit cohesion.

And yet they get PTSD from reading mean Facebook comments
Owen Baker
Not against it at all. We need equality in combat deaths!
Nicholas Johnson
don't know if anyone has said this yet. Women break the squad mentality. Any of you have have been in the army, especially ones without women which aren't SJW like the modern British army is aware of this. You are broken down as an individual to work as a unit. This means that personal attachments are less important that the success of the unit. Men have a natural instinct to protect women and relationships can form between men and women. This leads to women being treated differently than men on the field of battle which is hindrance.
Also, every good army in history has been historically female and men are naturally better suited for combat, fuck off leaf.
Luke Brooks
>Studies have shown women perform better in high stress situations than their male counterparts and have less chances to suffer from PTSD after deployment
This is completely false. Studies have shown that women are MORE prone to attain PTSD than their male counterparts. These are facts.
Julian Bailey
25 years in the US Army, 3 wars, seen lots of women in theater. None were worth the effort of bringing them. I say they stay in administrative support and rear echelon medical support. None should be in combat arms, none should be allowed out of the FOB, unless supported by a security detail, and for the specific task of female engagement teams.

Nolan Rivera
Strength and endurance are just as important as marksmanship. A little prissy 5'3 110lb bitch is not gonna be able to drag her 5'10 160lb buddy's ass off the field when he gets shot, or effectively hike more than a few miles in a full combat load.
Also full auto is fucking useless beyond suppression and cqc and still requires strength to not throw it up and off target.
Nicholas Johnson
what's with this low effort trolling
Jaxson Johnson
>3000 rounds a minute Alright now carry the gun to fire those rounds, maybe ~40 pounds Then lets factor in the fact that you're going to be carrying another 40 pounds or so in gear. God forbid you're carrying the ammo thats another 150+ pounds. Carry that everyday for around 8-14 hours a day and then tell me women can join the military >Less chances to suffer PTSD after deployment Im sure they'll be fine after mowing down 50 enemy soldiers after their best friends face just got blown off by a grenade Sage
