Yeah this is great! Women should be able to fight on the front lines if they choose to do so. But only the women that are strong enough to pull their 250 lb male counterparts out of a combat zone if he cant walk due to injuries.100 lb waifs need not apply
Women finally got to be equal to men. That's fine with me if they want to be equal they should be all the way equal, not just some of the way.
