The U.S. Marine Corps is looking for a few more good women.

And this time the campaign is a bit different. Marine recruiters are turning to girls high school sports teams to find candidates who may be able to meet the Corps' rigorous physical standards, including for the front-line combat jobs now open to women

the girls rugby teams definitely would be a good recruiting area

I played rugby. I respect men or women who played that.

As a former Marine and a father of two daughters, I would rather be wheeled to the front lines in a wheel chair in my old age (I'm no where near that now) than to have any female in my family to have to fight in the indignity of combat.

For most of history women and children were considered off limits in warfare. It's taboo in most western cultures to strike a woman. Does all that go out the window?

Transgenderism and the blurring of gender is nothing but to give the bankers more bodies. We need to save more of our men from combat, not give up our daughters well. F---this!
