Should Female marines be required to do at least three pull-ups?

Bottom line if i was in the army and they put a chick in my unit who was not physically capable of doing the things the men could do, i would tell the army to go fuck themselves and try to sue them for unsafe working environment. Same if i was a cop or firefighter.

Nobody would go into battle with a gun that misfired a third of the time, so how on earth can they justify sending you in with someone who is incapable of carrying you if you are injured.

What if you got into a 1 on 1 combat situation where its a fight to the death and the only person backing you was a chick who cant even do a pull up......

Think of the coast guard would anyone in their right mind jump into the water with a partner who couldnt swim?

Quote from STC Capital:

In other words...they want to be equal in the places that benefits them, but want to be treated as the weaker sex when it benefits them? Gotcha!

A few years back I boxed a female co-worker (on her invite) who I was friends with. While I had a major weight/reach advantage, she trained seriously while I have had no boxing training but I was in good cardio shape. I was actually a little nervous before the fight. As soon as we started boxing each other I quickly realized there is no way she could overcome my size and reach advantage. I could have demolished her but I held back as I did not want to beat the shit out of a friend/co-worker. I suspect a male of her size with as much training as herself would have given me a much tougher time.
