The Marine Corps Just Approved The First 2 Women For Infantry Positions

Hahahahahaha!! I hope they at least past on equal grounds as the males but knowing previous actions I doubt it. I wouldn't even be surprised if they got a bigger bonus to go infantry than any males. I hope someone proves me wrong so I can put some faith back into our government.

Ugh!! While I'm sure these females are stoked to have the opportunity, did they really need the additional pressure of publicity?? Many males falter when they have the same opportunity simply as a function of growing and learning from their mistakes......i wonder what their (male) failure rate would be if their every move was/is/will be under such public scrutiny?? It's a shame these outstanding (and obviously deserving) females can't earn these opportunities and have the same chance to learn by failure their male counterparts are given......they will not fail.....EVERYONE involved, and even some not directly involved, will see to that.........and that's the problem.

No...in NOT wanting them to fail. I want them to have the chance to learn from their failures, apply lessons learned, and move on! My fear is no one will let them fail.....thereby removing the opportunity to LEARN from their mistakes.....better leaders are those that don't repeat mistakes....not ones who don't make mistakes.....just my opinion.....
