    One thing we do agree is that there will not be a lowering of standards and there will be equal standards for everyone. Motivated people train hard. Sylvester Stallone was a frail kid once. But let's agree to disagree on this for now.

    There are all kinds of ideologies in US - feminists, liberals, progressives, conservatives, white supremacists and so on. We can get entangled in their ideologies, political landscape and divisions or decide for ourselves what's best for us.

    You are underestimating what women can deliver. Even in medical and IT where you mention that women can deliver as good as men, they had faced similar resistance.

    My point is simple - if we have motivated people willing to fight - we should not create unnecessary constructs / hurdles to exclude them and should find ways to accommodate them. Not doing so is our loss. Nations using their population best will move forward. Women are running ultramarathons...

    I will surely read the posts. But here is my concern - Indian women served in the Indian National Army and we had female armed revolutionaries fighting for independence. This discussion is about Indian armed forces - not US. US cannot be our moral compass. A nation of 1 billion with a great...

    Do you want to be a cop, or do you want to appear to be a cop? - from Departed Same goes for army and military. You need dedicated and motivated people regardless of gender - not fragile egos.

    Israeli and Kurdish women are actively taking part in modern combat today.So did the Russians since WW2. We should choose dedicated and motivated people to serve in the military - regardless of gender. India's needs and issues are unique to our nation and we should do what best serves us. We...
