>>5347479That's the the main reason, although it played a part. Male soldiers would sacrifice themselves for their sisters in arms just as they would a brother in arms. The problem with that lies with white knights who would rush to try and save a female soldier who's already gone, rather than try and save a male soldier who can be saved. The reason is the majority of them don't have the physical capacity to do full on combat ops. Yea you can argue female engagement teams, but those compared to actual, full on combat ops is totally different.

>>5347501Can they? Yes. Have they? No. With the exception of FETs whose sole purpose is to go out and interact with the females of a village, they have not done combat ops. They can, the Marine Corps opened up it's officer infantry school to women, and a few tried out...and failed out within two weeks. Look it up.
