Due to the recent posts regarding the military I believe my previous posts have been seriously mis understood.
i am not questioning the bravery, capabilities or suitability for any task in the military by women.
I was trying to imagine how I would feel in a situation where a squad were captured by the type of enemy that the world is facing today. Bloodthirsty terrorists that do not just kill people!!
I would not like to be forced to watch as a female companion in the squad was being gang raped repeatedly or whatever else they may choose to do to a female as opposed to a male prisoner.
My posts were merely trying to point out MY view in THAT situation.
If that attitude is considered misogyny then I have seriously misjudged the compassion of the human race today.
I do not care one bit if the female were to say. “I accept the risk”. I (me) would rather not.
Citing acts of extreme bravery by women in the face of such risks does not address the issue.
