Pentagon Eliminates Lower Fitness Standards for Women
The Pentagon Eliminates Lower Fitness Standards for Women in Combat Roles. The Pentagon this week ordered the elimination of lower physical fitness standards for women in combat units, a move that is likely to hinder the recruitment and retention of women in particularly dangerous military jobs.

Physical Training standards are once again "standard" rather then having one set of training standards for men and one set of standards for women. This raised combat efficiency and troop confidence in training which directly translates to the battlefield.

The Main Stream Media, Corporate, Entertainment Industry and Government propaganda has once again been set straight by the Trump Administration.

There are plenty of roles in the military that women are trained for and can expertly fill, combat arms (for the most part) is not one of those roles.

Left should be really happy that pentagon does not recognize that 2 sexes have biological differences in muscles mass and fat % and just administers 1 united test for all sexes for fitness, but i bet they complain anyway heh

I am male and ensured I had a desk job during my military stint.

Anyone who wants boots on ground combat roles is insane in my book.

After all that work Obama did putting women in everything so they can finally be drafted and he has to walk this policy back?
No. Now that Supreme Court decision comes back into play they can't be drafted because they can't be in all jobs.
Not Happy, Democrats worked so hard to skirt that SCOTUS ruling by putting women in everything.
True equality would be applied to all women in the military, not only in combat roles.

gosh maybe they won't use live flashbangs on female service candidates anymore then.

concussed my entire team, all males besides me, but they were going to pass everyone except me until I complained about being failed for dragging the vip's corpse instead of giving futile medical aid in the open or trying to find the shooter as the only person conscious.

so instead they failed everyone, and I tracked down the proctor's bat trail and waited for him in his house with a flashbang.

but he was ready and knew this would happen, so instead I broke his picture of his old family and flashed his glass front windows.

he was fired for using a live flash in a training exercise.

Modern feminists every where are not losing their minds, since being in the army can be lethal.

They just want more women to be CEOs and have other leadership and mainstream media news influencers etc. It's not about women's right and equality it's about taking positions of authority.

Jordan Peterson really hit the spot, in a debate about women's rights and the gender pay gap, when he brought up the point about all the dangerous and hard jobs, like bricklayers, oil rig workers and plumbers being men, and that there is a very low percentage of women in those jobs. And women werent complaining about not having equal representation for the difficult and risky jobs.

Yay, more fit girls.
Hey, if she wants the job she should be required to qualify for said job. NO EXCEPTIONS simply because she's a female. If a person can't keep up, they don't qualify. Should we lower the standards for the Army's Rangers to spare feelings? We wouldn't want to hurt any :steammocking:

yeah if people can't fill the job you need to lower the requirements.

like we did with delta force after people couldn't really live up to our first class' success; and also because they were terrified we made such an influtential instructor.

That's silly. You want a strong military.
Work for Uncle Sam if you have zero conscience and probably don't even know what the word means. Because people in other countries (the list of bombing targets is long) don't matter, they're just targets without enough weapons to shoot back.
i read lower but whole headline says eliminate lower.

so idk what opiniion to have on this. have fun with your new fox news leader.
