Not Ranked
What bothered me while I was in the Navy with the women is the different physical standards. A fire does not burn easier because a woman is fighting it, a bullet does not travel slower because it is heading towards a woman, a full equipment load does not weigh less because it is carried by a woman, so why do they not have the same physical requirements as a man. Don't get me wrong, I am NOT anti-woman in the military. I am anti double standard. The physical requirement should be the same, they are doing the same job.
At the same time I am not Anti-Gay in the military either. I am secure in my sexuality and what they do is their business, but if they wish to offer their life to defend this country let them. If they begin un-welcomed sexual advances it should be the same thing as any other sexual harassment case.
