Not a problem, I'm a current serving soldier in the British Army and there are a good few girls undergoing the same training as myself and are perfectly competent. Some more so....The female in my class has the highest marks so far in electronics.

In response to that dick who said their both gonna die sooner or later, he needs a slap n I'll gladly be the one to give it. You carry on taking your life for granted whilst others provide defence to ensure your right to freedom (probably a fat basterd who indulges himself in Macdonalds everyday). Wanker!!

this question can and can not have a simple direct answer. Depending on the type of job the person is applying for in the military can alter wether or not mixed gender training is good for them. Say becoming a lawer in the army. That is a mixed gender field and could probaply use mixed training. However, some combat fields that females can't apply to should not have mixed training. But some reasons why the military uses same gender training is because for drill instructors it is easier to break down a female than a male usually.

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong...

Women should not be in any of the services unless they can act, think, piss like a man.. For their sake & their comrades..

Take the army as an example - In Britain, women have an easier training regime than a man - but surely if a man is injured that same woman "Must" be able to drag him to safety.. While im not saying that women are always the weaker sex, It is a genetic thing - men are normally bigger, stronger, etc.. Women must do exactly the same things a man does to be viable..

I didn't realise the army carried out sex training. Probably best to keep it mixed, except for the navy.

Bad idea. The truth is that most women are not a physically strong as men, and should not be trained the same as men. That is not meant to be negative or bad. I also do not think that women should serve in high combat areas. If a woman is captured, there are more things that can be done to them by the enemy that is not only more physically harming, but mentally damaging as well. Like I said, not meant to sound demeaning or anything like that.

Bad idea. There are more than enough distractions during basic and AIT without having to put up withe females. Further, I was in the service long enough to state that I NEVER saw a platoon of female recruits that could match even the worst male platoon. On average, they're not strong enough, fast enough or tough enough. Yes, they're smart enough, but brains alone won't get you through basic.

Nothing wrong with it. I'm in the RAF and went through the training with girls. There were no problems. The girls lived in seperate accomodation, but attended the same sessions/lessons thet the lads did. No discrimination took place, they were treated as equals. BTW Danny M, I totally agree with you mate, that knobcheese needs to be taught a lesson!

Yes, mixed sex, oral sex, any sex, but definatley opposite sex...theres nothing better than a lovely bloke in that sexy uniform!
As for SWCASPER2001...balls to you! so woman arent as physically strong but what we lack in muscle...we overtake you with brains.
If war was left to women, we would have it all pretty sussed...just by using our brains, a bit of reverse psychology, false pretences and our main weapon...sex-should keep the enemy at bay...then we can run...fast!

I went through inter-gender basic, and I have to say that a lot of the males found it distracting.

You have to work with them out on field. So you might as well get used to it from the start.
