No problem, so long as female soldiers are treated exactly the same as male ones. We know that isn't going to be the case, because females make up approx 5% of staff at present. get the same pay and pensions, but make up only 0.005% of casualties. More special privileges for women, I'm afraid.

The Labour Party in the UK is a predominatly female party. The majority of their MP's are female. All of their pollicies are pro female anti male and they make no excuse for it.

It is hard to belive that once upon a time they use to represent "the working man and woman".

Labour won’t get elected even if their opponent is BoJo. They are so out of touch man.

What? 😆
"Army" is too 'offensive' now? Army = 'gender-balanced human security force'? Soft language like that is for weak and pathetic adults.

Wonder if they feel the same way when it comes to morbidity and mortality rates too?

What these left wing woke politicians dont realise is that pushing this woke nonsense is pushing away centrists and moderates- the kind of swing voters that decide elections. Yeh you gain some voters but you lose a lot more.

Biden won because his opponent was Trump not because of his woke bullshit.

This has got to be a fucking joke right?

This headline massively misrepresents what was actually said. But the idea is still a load of bollocks.

Human? I identify as an sexless alien.

I'm going to say that I actually don't think that's a good idea. I mean, in the current era of small scale wars fought against lesser developed nations...sure. But when the world finds the next global conflict it will cause issues.

During WW2 the UK was only able to get about 4.5 squares of toilet paper per day out to their guys fighting (part of the reason that they hated the Yanks, they got 11). I think that if you throw in the need for gender specific health requirements and the fact that on any given day a substantial part of your force will be out with monthly issues (and I don't think that commanders keeping track of their soldiers period schedules would go over big, which they would have to for a large scale war), I don't see how this would be a benefit.

But if I've missed something let me know, working with partial perspective isn't what I'm going for.
