New York Daily News: Female special ops soldiers face rampant sexism, other challenges: Army study
Women have been able to serve in the U.S. Army’s Special Operations units for eight years, but they’re still subject to outright sexism, discrimination and other obstacles, according to a new study.
The Army’s report showed that while women have made significant gains during in the military, deep biases have not been removed and can impede that progress.

This is hard to imagine. It has been known for over 30 years. Getting accused of harassment is the kiss of death.
The only ones who can survive this is a general or someone else who is politically connected.
Right. You take a group of 20s/30s alpha-male prime specimen that are full of testosterones - and high on adrenaline after a mission or training (i.e. every day!).
And -THEN- to this existing unit, you ad ladies in their 20s/30s.
GENIUS!
These people.. men in female bathrooms.. throwing ladies into a situation with jacked-up men... what is it with their ignorance / hatred for women?
Either do it right or be ready to take -SOME- of the fucking blame.
I will come out and say it.
They deserve the harassment.
They are like Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket except they are oblivious to how much they underperform. This is more about their self image than what is good for the unit or the military. It is selfish.
All harassment is not bad and not evil. Sometimes harassment is to enforce necessary group norms especially when they cannot be enforced officially or explicitly.
The Inside Story Of How The Army Reduced Standards To Get Women Through Ranger Training
I have read that women make better instructors (Because men listen better; Israeli experience), better snipers (lower center of gravity) and better pilots (better reflexes). So some people will use psychology, biology and physics to support their argument, when it supports them. Otherwise, it is thrown out the window.
we like babes when they cook and wash dishes and clothes. And that is why when women divorce or are windowed they do not want to remarry and do more shit for us but when men are divorced or widowed we want a woman to be a wife to do the crap we do not do.
New Documents Implicate Marie Yovanovich and George Kent – Trump-Bashers Lied During Trump Impeachment Knowing Hunter Undercut US Anticorruption Efforts in Ukraine
So Trump was right about the lying poota bitch.
all harassment is not bad. right. where is your sister or your wife so I can demonstrate?
In a private, classified email shared with Just the News, one of the top U.S. officials in the Kyiv embassy told then-Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch at the end of the Obama administration that Hunter Biden had, in fact, impacted the U.S. anti-corruption agenda in Ukraine.
"“The real issue to my mind was that someone in Washington needed to engage VP Biden quietly and say that his son Hunter’s presence on the Burisma board undercut the anti-corruption message the VP and we were advancing in Ukraine b/c Ukrainians heard one message from us and then saw another set of behavior with the family association with a known corrupt figure whose company was known for not playing by the rules,” embassy official George Kent wrote to Yovanovitch in the Nov. 22, 2016, email marked “confidential.”"
needed to engage Is that code for the explanation we come up with after the fact, when in fact we did nothing?
needed to engage People in organizations or organization often prefer this method to maintain an image and take care of a problem out of sight. There is something positive to be said for this approach.
But they never followed thru with this approach or it did not work and they went no further and tried nothing else.
Problem is with taking care of business out of sight becomes sweeping it under the rug and letting it fester, when it does not work.
where then is the full news that is still shared and reported but not visible to verify? if real evidence, give the full letter or relevant parts and do not simply suggest that some site has a letter. That is not smart journalism in the way this is hinted at.The test? this would not be allowed as is in a court of law.
"Diversity hires face criticism for being utterly unqualified and displacing capable candidates". Good. Carry on.
1:44 I did not say sexual harassment. I said harassment, so go fuck yourself bastard.
I did not say sexual but used the word harassment. show where your mind is.
Do you think it ok to harass a woman if it is not sexual?
Former Georgia Republican Party Chair David Shafer said attorneys for former President Donald Trump, his campaign and the local GOP were responsible for urging him to assemble a slate of false presidential electors that are now at the heart of a sprawling racketeering case.
Shafer is among the 18 defendants indicted in Fulton County, Georgia, alongside Trump as part of a conspiracy to subvert the 2020 election.
“Mr. Shafer and the other Republican Electors in the 2020 election acted at the direction of the incumbent President and other federal officials,” Shafer’s attorney wrote in a petition seeking to move the Fulton County case to federal court.
Easy solution, replace all the men with women, presto.
"where then is the full news that is still shared and reported but not visible to verify? if real evidence, give the full letter or relevant ..."
(blah) (blah) (blah) It wasn't reported in the MSM (blah) (blah) (blah) so it is not real (blah) (blah) (blah)
Kangaroo courts of the Banana Republic did not deem it true (blah) (blah) (blah)
I think it I translated that right.
2:05 is either an honest Russian employee engaged in honest information warfare or a dumb @ss Democrat that should help out the world by walling off a pier.
I remember when the general of the 82nd Airborne (VDV) Division had to write a letter apologizing for and condemning an incident where two units were going in opposite directions down a road during a physical fitness run and someone in one outermost column decked a woman running by in the column going in the other direction.
The women in my unit laughed and said that was nothing compared to what they'd faced, which explains why the women in the unit were about twice as mentally tough as the men.
Who would you rather serve with, someone with above unit-average mental toughness and below unit-average physical toughness, or the reverse?
Just what is sexual harrasment these days anyway. If a male trooper says 'hi' does that count?If you define assault with the broadest possible definition then anything counts. Also is it possible this is actually the way troopers are fighting back at the whole 'women are equals' thing?'they keep calling us rapists and animals so might as well prove it since no matter what they'll always think that about us.' Basically if the military hadn't made such a big deal out of this the troops would be more in line with the program.
If a desirable alpha male says "hi" or "nice outfit", it is not harassment.
If a beta male says "hi" or "nice outfit", it is harassment.
Do you think it ok to harass a woman if it is not sexual?
Do you think it ok for a man or group of men to harass a man if it is not sexual and that man is not carrying his weight?
What if a spec ops unit is carrying a mortar for an operation and it is the woman's job to carry the base plate of the mortar, because of her position in the unit?
What if she can't or she refuses?
Is that fair for the others in the unit? is it fair for the tax payer?
2:28 won this round, absolutely right LOL
same thing, the other way around.. hot chick? yumyum.... black or white Karen? stay the fck away or I will call the anti-harassment league / exorcists! :P
half joking ofc everyone here, we love and respect ladies.. BUT, the thought behind "all men are equal to women and vice versa" is ridiculously stupid as it's not true on all levels.
No woman ON AVERAGE has the bone density of a man - that alone should make it clear how stupid this is.
In a pool of much fewer women and much more men you will reach the basic qualification standard for men much more easily, for women they often drop it to a D level at training. Rendering the unit less capable and risking BOTH parties (men and womens) lives.
Not saying women should not serve, but not in EVERY unit and not at EVERY cost. The men are dying too in this, so their voices should be heard - not just the women and not just the fanatic LBTQ activists who do more harm to society than good (being the useful idiots they are)
If you do not know how to treat a woman, ask your mother
Remembering form class, I thought that women had 60% of the upper body strength of men.
"Do men really have more upper body strength than women?"
"In a 1993 study exploring gender differences in muscle makeup, female participants exhibited 52 percent of men's upper body strength, which the researchers partially attributed to their smaller muscles and a higher concentration of fatty tissues in the top half of the female body [source: Miller et al].
Another study published in 1999 similarly found women had 40 percent less upper body skeletal muscle "
Just the title of the article is depressing. It is depressing, not because it may be click bait, but because it may be an honest title. 10%, 20%, 30% or more of the population may not realize that men are significantly stronger on average than women.
So if women are 60% as strong as men, how will that work out in the field against the enemy?
3:27 need to go to Canada or Oregon and seek treatment. Maybe splurge and travel to Netherlands or Switzerland to broaden their bigoted horizons before they self terminate.
clasdsy dude. mommy taught you real good
Mission Accomplished. Comments section refracted
Women should not be soldiers just like women should not be cops. They will only get themselves and others killed because women are meant to bear children and nurture them, not kill others in combat! Placing women in roles demanding strength and ferocity is just more deluded liberal thinking that is destroying the West.
