All I have to say about women in the military is that if there is ever a point where the draft is reinstated I don't want to here: "We're women we shouldn't be drafted."

Also, to deal with rape in the ranks, you change it from a mere criminal charge, to a death sentence.

Stop that undisciplined behavior real fast.


That wouldn't work. People don't care..

People still kill people even tho they might get the death sentence...they don't care..I'm sure if your gonna rap somebody or really kill someone you don't give shit about the consequences at that point..

I doubt it would cut ALL of the raping, but it would definitely help. When people realize doing something could have them killed, they generally tend to shy away.

It'd still stop the "casual" rapists, it would just be the more "invovled" ones that continue, the ones that need help.

the problem is something like 80% of all rapes go unreported in the military, because it's usually done by superior officers who already have troops under their command who trust them with their lives and would defend them in court, so I doubt it would help as much as you think.

No, no, no, if you catch the guy, heres what you do: tie the guy to a chair so they can't move and gag him, bring in the women who he raped and let her have access to any weapon or anything she wants and say to her "You have 2 hours, do anything you want to him, there will never be charges laid for what happens in those two hours, even if he dies.". Then lock the door. You will need a high-pressure hose to clean the room after she is done. Basicly think "Hostel" only more satistic!

Not only sexual harassment, but also women get this thing once a month called a PERIOD.

Ya, an issue of hygiene. Where are you suppose to dispose of feminine products when you're out and about >> or where are suppose to get some when you unexpectedly start?

Yea, women are allowed in the Navy (barring submarines, which is stupid) and to pilot aircraft (afaik), and aren't bared from command possitions.

You can carry some with you, it's not like they'll add more weight to your pack. And where do you dispose of them? Seriously? You toss them in the same pit where all the other bodily excretions go.

And, beside that fact, tampons haven't always been around. Women got along without them for millenia. You aren't going to die without one. It'd ****ing suuuuuuuuuuuuck but you'd live through it.

^expert opinion there.

You CAN die from infection. Hygene is an issue. Stop forgetting that. Sometimes they can clean up. Sometimes they don't have the luxury. IN SOME ROLES.

If a woman wants too see combat. SHE CAN. She doesn't have to be in the infantry.

And the whole death sentence thing is really ****ing stupid. The ramifications of a law like that is too risky to even have on the books.

For example, what if a guy wants to serve his country. Then he finds out that if some bitch wants to cry rape and falsely accuse him, he might get the death sentence. Wow. Recruitment goes way down.

etc. etc.
