Women should not be allowed in the infantry because women can not physically or mentally handle the strenuous requirements that this job entails. Also the standards that these men are held to everyday and take so much pride in will be lowered just so that the administration can say "Look, women can be infantry after all," even though they will be held to a lesser standard. Last but not least this will cause problems at all operating levels. What will happen when a young team leader gets a crush on his new riflewomen and he fails to instill discipline in her or when his fellow soldier begins to get the hots for her as well. These are real problems that will break up teams and destroy bonds of brotherhood in which these men depend on to survive. Don't believe this? Just ask an Infantryman.
