Quote: Raymond Terrific @ September 23 2012, 4:19 PM BSTThe rest of my logic relies on the axiom that most men feel this way. Maybe it's an evolutionary thing or something. But perhaps if most or a lot of men do feel this way, that in itself becomes a rational reason not to have women in combat situations. Simply because the other men wouldn't feel comfortable with it, and they have to be on their toes and keep their mind on the job. Plus the women might be fit and the men will be running around dangerous situations and dodging bullets with a boner. The men having the boner, not the bullets.
I think if this conversation has taught us nothing else (and it hasn't) it's that the men and women trained in combat probably know a bit more about this than us lot on a comedy message board grabbing 'logic' and 'facts' out of the air. It's possibly best left to them to sort out.
