Does eyesight require training?

Do you believe a woman can protect herself physically from other men in battle? She is weaker physically, high potential to be raped (real combat), cant pack a full rucksack for long or at all even after basic training. Did you know that?
Or did you really believe there were equal standards for men and women in the military? There isnt because if it was there would hardly be any females. The standards are the same mentally but not physically for very obvious reasons.
Women are just as mentally capable though and can handle an m-16 usually pretty well in accuracy but still not as well overall in comparison to men as they have broader shoulders to support the weapon better than a female can. Any weapon larger would be a problem. Same with grenades, okay but not as well as males, even after training.
Thats really stupid. You are making little quips because you know in full reality and context, it does not fly.
It's stupid cause why, a weaker woman can be a better soldier simply because of eyesight and reflexes?
Well, okay. If ground combat was like some simulated virtual game like COD then i suppose most women could do that. After all, who cant shoot a weapon. Just ignore all other things that could go wrong including a man in the same position would be better qualified based on physical strength and stamina alone. He could carry heavier loads, weapons, supplies etc. Just turn a blind eye to all that and let the rest take up the slack while keeping an extra watchful eye out for threats to her dignity but pretend you're not. All in the name of equality.

Oh yeah because women have better eyesight and reflexes. Wow
Oh, but I didn't say that now, did I?
You are the one posting about how tough it is to be a soldier. Do you think that it comes naturally to all men?
There will always exist women out there who are as physically strong as your average male but still a minority. If a woman wants to be in the front lines of combat she sure better be aware of the risks posed inherently being a female and be able to pull her load just as a male in her position which aint gonna be many but more power to her if she wants to try and if she can. Otherwise its not equality.
What??? Men are physically stronger period in comparison to females. What is it you are not getting??
Combat military is not a chess club, its main requirement is physical work, strength and stamina which the average male trumps the average female just by gender.
I said if a woman is qualified she should be allowed to but i cant foresee that being the case in equal numbers in comparison to males with greater strength along with equal mental ability unless they are just making qualifications as total team effort.
So based on complete impartial qualifications the female would have to exhibit the same or greater mental and physical ability. My prediction even after training is that more males would qualify due to greater strength, stamina and just less emotional under stress (generally).

Sounds like you would pride yourself on being a cannon fodder donkey. Is the U.S. national cemetary your goal in life?

From military studies:
Only 10% of men are capable and willing to kill
Ergo 90% do not belong in combat except as canon fodder to camouflage the real killers.
Of that 10%, less than 10% can rise to the ranks of the killer elite---green berets, rangers, recon marines, seals, etc...
So, field 1000 men and you have 90+ killers, and < 10 really great soldiers.
The best russian sniper, Major Lyudmila Pavlichenko, during ww2, was a woman. Killing didn't seem to bother her(390 confirmed kills).
2 of the 10 deadliest snipers of all time were female. (incidentally an unknown sniper is taking out IS leaders in Libya)
Drop the sexist bullshit and look at each person as an individual.

Exactly. As you say: Individual.
But you dont get to go in the military and say 'well, im a real good shot so i think i should be a sniper'. You have to pass all other requirements.
It is NOT sexist to state the FACT that most women would not qualify in comparison to men. PERIOD.
Now to pretend that most women would qualify to be in combat in comparison to men is akin to affirmative action not equality.
Its telling that you cited examples of 'female snipers.' Even i already pointed out that women have just as much capability in 'accuracy' as much as a male. Thats very obvious and doesnt need to be explained unless of course the weapon in question is too heavy for her. Pfft.
lol! Vote Hillary.
This is funny. Point and shoot. Even im really good at that, even better than some men. Actually, im very keen at it. Im the one who wins prizes at carnival games. Do i qualify to be a sniper??? No?? How about this girl i know who is an excellent shot with a rifle as her father took her hunting growin up?
Because of course the US military operates just as any third world country guerilla outfit that hands weapons to children, aunt, your grandmother or hell, anyone can take up a weapon and join in and see if you got the knack.
Lmao

Men are somewhat stronger. But the average male soldier is stronger than the average man. And the average female soldier is stronger than the average man.
Nope. There are many women with a ton of strength and stamina. These things can be improved by exercise and training.
Sure, you enjoy shitting all over women and their abilities. I get it. You also don't care much for facts or researching facts. I get it.
Whats even further funny is that being a sniper is some big deal. The reconassiance is the difficult part which isnt soley on the part of the sniper if at all.
Shooting to kill is also easy. Just detach or maybe you just born an asshole or bitch would make it easy enough.
Shooting a weapon is so easy in fact you can teach a child to do it. Of course, greater accuracy does require you to adjust and take into account wind velocity, distance, moving vs stationary target, how to keep the weapon steady etc.
And all these things no one even needs to teach. Just some common sense and some practice.
Lmfao.

Uh, no they're not.
Yeah? But with the same exercise men would still be stronger. So?
No, im not shitting on anybody. Just being realistic.
I just said women wouldnt qualify for combat in the numbers men would with the same standards.
Thats not shitting on, thats just keepin it real. Lol
