Out of one side of the face, "women should be able to hold any position they can pass the test for". Out of the other side of the face, "these tests are unfair to women and should accommodate women."
If only 65% of women are failing the tests they need to be more strict not less.
"...Shit. Quick, lower our standards for women specifically! Lower our standards so inferior performance still passes for them!"
"But then any woman in the troop would be assumed to be incompetent, no matter their actual skill, because they got in through overt, obvious favoritism."
"Ah, but that's THEIR problem, not mine. I'm not losing my pension over this!"
As a woman I also have to ask, is this what women really want, is it?
I think the prevailing wisdom is that, as a woman, you should shut the hell up and do as you're told by your betters while they use your existence to advance your own agenda.
As a woman, I've always been kind of spicy with the women's movement for a very long time. It has never made me popular nor desirable at higher insider soirees.
I've known some influencers. We kept our distance ;)
Women don't even register for the draft in the US. And if they did, any woman who didn't want to serve would just get pregnant, and I guarantee no society on earth has the balls to make women get an abortion and serve anyway or put them in prison for dodging the draft like they would a man. There's just no way humans will ever treat women as disposably as they treat men without undoing programming built in and reinforced over the past billion years of sexual reproduction.
In the following years, if you are a man, you really should stay away from the Woke US Forces.
Anyone, male or female, should stay away from military service while Biden sits in the White House.

Or they might lower it - bring everyone down. Just like California dropping AP classes cuzz its too hard for blacks and hispanics.
How it went down:
"Only the best and brightest can pass our tests!"
"Sir, the women aren't passing the tests..."
"...Shit. Quick, lower our standards for women specifically! Lower our standards so inferior performance still passes for them!"
"But then any woman in the troop would be assumed to be incompetent, no matter their actual skill, because they got in through overt, obvious favoritism."

What's funny is that they already lowered the standards when they made the gender neutral test in order to have more women be able to pass.
Now they want to lower standards even further.
So clearly since the test results of women aren't measuring up, the test must be the problem.
Use a different test, get better results that match the desired outcome. it'S sCieNce bABy.
Anybody see Tucker's rip on maternity combat fight suits? Top of his game.

In the name of combating sexism, of course!

The women's movement has been about the movement more than about women since it's inception, I think.
Great observation.
I've seen how fat feminists are so I don't think there has been much movement.
Healthy at any size, bigot!
Haha. Fat people are a reason we should let Commie Cough run unchecked.
Ummm, I'm an out of shape fat-ass, and I can do a 2-minute plank with virtually no issue. How is that at all relevant to a military fitness test?
I'm actually surprised. The bar must be extremely low for 50% of the women passing.
It's worse than that.
Integrated units do FAR worse than non-integrated units.
Not only can the women not do the work, but they make men do the work WORSE.
So it's more like 3x or 4x effort to reach the same place.
Why should any men fight for the MIC and the woke military leadership that utterly hates them?
I fully respect veterans and their service.
However, men in the military today are forcibly indoctrinated into wokeism and end up dying in forever wars for the sake of profit for the MIC.
Fuck all of the woke leadership which consists of all the top generals, officers and the MIC.
Men work in order to make money which is necessary for survival.
Men can't just do a general strike against gynocentricism.
It is just not a feasible idea.
I do agree with you that now is not a good time to be a man in the military. The wokeism is out of control.

Except for China. Forced abortions for Uyghur women.
