This will weaken the military and put our servicemen in danger.
And in other news, the sun will rise in the east tomorrow morning.
We need to try this with the NFL. Require one team to field an all female team. Require another to field a team that is roughly 50:50. See what happens.
Don’t worry. The enemy will fight slower and softer to be faaaaair.
This is all a surprise to... no one.

The to 25% of females were about equal to the bottom 25% of males. Better than I thought.
Probability not for more than a few hard weeks though.
What a shock!
Let’s try this experiment in the NFL or NHL.
Obviously discrimination. Everybody knows there is no difference between men and women.

I think you’ve answered your own question.
How about if there is a federal law extending Title IX to pro sports?
