“Any comment I might make will only appear to make me look like a sexist”.
Well, if you look sexist than so do I. Women do not belong in combat. Can they be doctors, nurses, etc...? Sure. I personally see that women in the military are doing a service for their country. Service does not only include front lines/combat IMHO. Supportive roles held by women are important and valued. IMHO.
Oh, it may make me look sexist, but I actually don’t care if they think that. Most women I know, and several are in the military, don’t ever want to be in combat.
