Female Warriors: You Can’t Have It Both Ways Girls

From reader Ned Weatherby, Liberty News Now:
Transgender mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter Fallon Fox is the target of criticism after brutally injuring an opponent.
Fox defeated Tamikka Brents just two minutes into the first round of the match. Brents suffered a damaged orbital bone, which required seven staples, and a concussion.
Brents summed it up: “I’ve never felt so overpowered ever in my life.”
“I’ve fought a lot of women,” Brents stated. “And never felt the strength I felt in a fight as I did that night. I can’t answer whether it’s because [he] was born a man or not, because I’m not a doctor,” she stated. “I can only say, I’ve never felt so overpowered ever in my life, and I am an abnormally strong female in my own right.”
The video of the Brents-Fox fight was pretty brutal: Fox threw knees to Brents face and torso right at the beginning, to kick off the fight. Brents ultimately turned her back to avoid more damage–and took almost a minute of hard strikes from Fox’s elbows and fists, before the referee stopped.
But wait? I thought women can do everything a man can do? That’s what I’m led to think about Ranger school.
It’s down to three now — three female soldiers, out of an original 19, that refuse to give up their dream of earning the coveted Army Ranger Tab.
The one female major and two female first lieutenants failed at two attempts to make it through the first phase of U.S. Army Ranger School, but the trio has still earned the respect of the gatekeepers of this grueling, two-month infantry course.
The female soldiers had been at it for 29 days when the two top leaders at Ranger School offered them a choice – start over from day one with a new class or go home.
All three agreed to start over on June 22.
“Anybody that takes a day-one recycle — be it a male or female soldier — it displays an incredible amount of grit and determination; they want to earn the Ranger Tab,” Col. David G. Fivecoat, commander of the Airborne and Ranger Training Brigade, told Military.com during a June 5 interview.
Fort Benning, Ga., held its first co-ed course of Army Ranger School on April 20. Nineteen women and 380 men were pre-screened for the combat training course.
Three of the women failed to pass the Ranger Physical Fitness Assessment, a requirement to enter Ranger School. Eight out of 16 female soldiers completed the Ranger Assessment Phase, or RAP week.
But the remaining eight females weren’t able to complete the first phase and advance to the second phase of the course. Instead, they were allowed to repeat the Darby Phase along with 101 male candidates.
Fort Benning officials announced May 29 that none of the eight passed the Darby Phase on their second attempt. Three of those females, along with five males, have been invited to start over on day one.
No female has successfully passed the Marine Infantry Officer Course either. You can’t have it both ways girls. You can’t claim unfairness if you have to fight men on the one hand, and claim you can do anything a man can do on the other.
That doesn’t pass even elementary tests of consistency. And to reiterate what I said earlier, God has made men and women differently, in case you missed that growing up.

Yuo say: “That doesn’t pass even elementary tests of consistency.”
Honestly, Herschel, it’s getting worse. Consider the latest example:
“I identify as Black.” — Rachel Dolezal.
Amazingly, the best rebuttal I’ve seen is from Piers Morgan: “I identify Rachel Dolezal as a lying, deluded idiot.”
Divorce from Natural Law will only lead to oblivion.

And this Natural Law you speak of……is there a copy of this lying around somewhere so I can update myself? Certainly don’t want to be thought of as a “lying, deluded idiot”!

You _may_ understand Natural Law when it bites you on the azz. Somehow, I’ll bet you’ll be wondering, “what just happened?”

Transgender is the way for the services to finally get ‘women’ through all of the tough special courses. Actually it is brilliant!

There are a multitude of soetoro-obama’s social justice female trainees who can’t cut the bacon at Army BCT. At a minimum they are incurring a rash of hip stress fractures, effectively eliminating them from training. Women do NOT belong in the military. But social justice decides qualifications. Not reality.

The push by the cultural Marxists to get women into every MOS in the military – including the ground combat arms, submarines, combat aviation and special forces – has nothing to do with fairness or equal-opportunity.
Please spare me the ridiculous notion that Obama and his cohorts on the left actually care about anyone in the military, male or female, except insofar as they serve their political ambitions and agenda.
No, the primary reason the cultural Marxists want women in combat is their hatred of traditional western civilization and everything it once stood for. The military, being one of the last remaining bastions of traditionalism in American life in this, the 21st century, had to broken on the wheel of political-correctness before the “long march” of the Marxists through every significant institution in American public life could be concluded on a victorious note. They’ve finally done it – and somewhere Patricia Schroeder (the now-deceased feminist and Congresswoman) is smiling.
To the cultural Marxists, the military exists as a vehicle for enacting their notions of social justice – fight wars, or “breaking things and killing bad guys” as the grunts say – have nothing to do with it.
