Sophistry.
BS.
The link is free extramarital sex = more sex assault.
Ummmm - how is it going to play when Al Quada (decimated, dontcha know) does a Daniel Pearl on a American female service member when they capture one?
I guess Obama will shake his finger at them and threaten terrible things.
I’m sorry, I know what these terrorists are capable of. That’s why most of us still call them terrorists.
has the good general ever heard of the created order - male and female roles - harmones - troop morale - esprit de corp - efficiency of operation - common sense - etc. ?????
Sexual assaults within the military have gone up dramatically since 2006, at exactly the same time that the percentage of women troops "serving shoulder to shoulder with men" --- as they always put it --- was going up, up, up.
The Department of Defense estimates over 19,000 sexual assaults occurred in the military in 2010 alone. A conservative estimate states over 20% of women in the military will be sexually assaulted. According to the Service Women’s Action Network, in 2010, 108,121 male and female veterans screened positive for military sexual trauma.
This business of jamming male and female, heterosexual and homosexual troops together in the service is senseless.
My own 2 cents worth.
“Treating the genders equally, he says, is more likely to lead people to treat each other equally.”
Kinda like homo’s want to treat other guys privates as equally as they do their own.

I suspect the leftards’ response will be something along the lines of “she was asking for it.”
I think it’s about destroying the volunteer aspect of the military. When many people quit, because moral drops and the various abuses, rape or false accusations rise, there wont be enough manpower to achieve the objectives.
The draft would end up being suggested as a possible fix.
Hasn’t the innate, inability or unwillingness to protect oneself, always been what armies looked for in it’s warrior stock.
Hey, if there are no women in the military, there can be no sexual assaults, right? This is just an excuse by Dempsey.
Where are the honorable generals today? Who will stop this madness?
you may be right on that angle.
You must be referring to "gender assaults". Please try to keep up.

Well, yes, because the ultimate goal of the progressives is to destroy the military.
Yeah, but then they’d have to draft women, right? With no “gender discrimination” anywhere in tge forces, should they reinstate the draft there’ll be an army of lawsuits asking why boys have to go while their sisters and girlfriends get off scott-free. They’ll probably offer some lame excuse, but should “equality” win and females be drafted the draft will be less popular than ever.

For the communists to take over the institutions, they first must delegitimize the institutions, so they then offer their solutions.
...they been going up since disbanding the WACs, no doubt...a chart highlighting the various initiatives and assault #s would be of interest...
I swear to God, commissioned officers must lose their damned minds as soon as they go after that ivy league grad degree.
I admire the slogan I saw on a sign in the big Paris demonstration two weeks ago against Gay Marriage:
ON VEUX DU SEXE NON DU GENRE.
