I'm not against it, not at all, and if a woman wants to fight on the front line then she should have the right to.
However, the argument that Kelly Ripa (of all people) brought up really struck me. She brought up the issue of treatment and torture of POWs. It is terrible what these men have lived through, and died from. But what would happen to a woman if she was captured and tortured is unthinkable, it is on an entirely different level. And while this may not be common, it will still exist and honestly gives me chills to think about.
Unfortunately men and women are not physically equal - and that is not an opinion, it is science.
But at the end of the day, I am all for a woman being able to have that role in combat.
I do completely agree... If a woman wants that position, then they should be able to choose it.
I heard what Kelly Ripa said... and I agreed with that as well...how women should be able to, women can do just as good of a job as a man (if not better! ) ...but the tortures that she would face as a POW makes the thought (for me) unthinkable.
