Since you have done nothing except call me a lier, question my twenty years of service, question my motives and basicly insinuate that I am of such low intelligence as to be unable to understand anything, I do not believe anyone else will try to explain anything to you.

You simply do not want to hear it.

You purpose here is to pick a fight.

I forgot it really, but the punch line had something to do with the Special Olympics.

So far, my question has not been answered. All I have heard so far is a whole lot of anecdotal (based on personal observation, case study reports, or random investigations rather than systematic scientific evaluation: anecdotal evidence)narrative. I am not nearly as swayed by anecdotal evidence. I am much more interesting in what really is, not what one person's experience is.

I am aware that often times people tend to create their personal circumstances. Whether that is the situation with you or not, I do not know. I do not know you. Based on what you have relayed, however, I would have to wonder how much of what you have given as reasons for women not being in the military were actually situations you put yourself into.

Regardless, anecdotal evidence is the least reliable of the type of evidence available. That said, I am still waiting for an answer to my question.

I'm an active little whoremonger and she just arrived.

I thought you might have some experience with the military. It is obvious that you do not.

1. Men DO RAPE. Is this news? Not ALL men!

2. It is NOT his fault. I don't believe anything even happened. If it did, he was MUCH faster than me. But he was accused BY HER. To explan to her boyfriend why she was up there. I hope it haunts her the rest of her days.

3. Second divorce is pertainent in that she was bitter. IF you had followed the story, (you didn't) you would have seen that she and I often spoke and that I was the ONLY Sergeant that did NOT receive a complant.

Misogynistic? I happen to like most women. Not all. Some are just Haters.

Maby you know a few.

I forgot about the "whoremonger" thing. Why YES. I am a whoremonger! I put my pipe in the PROPER and WILLING receptacles! I do not rape. I rent! Which is much cheaper than buying. I avoid all that divorce crap and the screaming and name calling. Like we see from you. You are old enough to be more intelligent than that, by the way.

I am sensitive to the issue because I spent 20 years watching women do that crap. I survived it. Which should tell an intelligent person that the shoe did not fit me. (whoremonger—remember) Right hole(s) on rented partner. NEVER with a "uniformed service member".

"The fact that YOU felt SUPERIOR enough to "lean down and whisper" ANYTHING shows that it was YOU"

My answer, you ready for this? She was sitting down. ok? That is why I Leaned down. Whisper? I didn't what to embarrass her in front of the other "troops". Call me crazy! If I had to do it over again, knowing what I do now, I would have screamed at her so there would have been witnesses.

The way you think is the reason women should not serve along side men.

I want women to serve! But the two sexes together can not be trusted. They use each other.

But not me, cause I'm a whoremonger. I'm proud of it too! Like you said; right hole of a willing partner. Don't get more willing than renting!

Never get involved with women wearing the same uniform as yourself. A good rule, that should be taught. Sadly, that would not be (PC).

I'm not Superior to women—I'm DIFFERENT from women. I don't know any men that thinks they are superior. All of them know they are different.

Men and women, opps let be put you first, women and men are not equal. Never have been—never will be.

You said your superior to me mentally. YOUR the one looking for one to be better than the other. I'm just a simple whoremonger, renting willing holes. Not raping. Rape is about power you know—not sex. If women could rape, I'm sure there are many who would. Oh wait, there are those teachers having sex with underage boys. But that is another story—about women and power.

Interesting. I believe I addressed ALL of your so-called "First hand" experiences.

The issue of “fear”. Fear is what an “intelligent” person has. Based on experience and understanding. You lump all men together into one hateful being.

No, sir, I did not, YOU did. Here is the exact quote where YOU lumped all men together:

Women need to protect THEMSELVES! Rape happens EVERYWHERE!

As for this: If your emotions allowed you to notice, (they didn’t) there was some women that I enjoyed hanging out with.

I'm sure you do enjoy the company of women, so long as they don't get uppity.

I, as a man, KNOW that there is evil out there and I must take care of myself. YOU only know “men” are evil.

There you go again, telling this simple-minded woman what she is thinking. I do believe it was YOU who professed that rape happens everywhere, I presume that means that the male gender is perpetrating the event? I believe it is YOU who is cautioning me, a simple-minded woman, to be careful, because men can't be trusted? I actually know better. I KNOW that bad things happen to those who are not vigilent. I KNOW that the percentage of men who would do something that heinous, is relatively small. YOU are the one who is saying otherwise.

I know that evil comes in all shapes and sizes and sexes. I prepare. I don’t blame others or accuse an entire sex of being evil, as you do.

At the risk of repeating myself, YOU are the one who said it, not me.

As to it not being my business what she was doing—-which SHE.

Your emotions took over and you were not CLEAR as to which she.

Well, allow me to explain the proper use and translation of pronouns. Here is the exchange in question:

5. I was in Bosnia. I have a bad knee and was lifting in the gym for PT. A “female” soldier was lifting, doing wrist curls with the smallest weight she could find. After I did my benches and shoulder work, I saw she was STILL doing wrist curls. For over half an hour! She said she had hurt her ankle. OK! FINE! I went over and leaned down to her ear and told her she should exercise other areas, like her arms, for push ups. Three hours later and I’m explaining all this because she has made the statement that I have a problem with women in the army.

Might I suggest, based on your entry, that it was NOT what you said, but rather HOW you said it? I know that is a bit subtle for you, but worth exploring. The fact that YOU felt SUPERIOR enought to “lean down and whisper” ANYTHING shows that it was YOU who should NOT HAVE BEEN IN THE MILITARY. It was, quite frankly, none of your business what she was doing.

A pronoun, such as the word "she" in the above exchange, indicates a person of the female sex. Now, once the female is identified, "A “female” soldier" one no longer need refer to said individual as "A “female” soldier" again, rather one may refer to said individual as "she." Should "A “female” soldier" be the ONLY female mentioned in the dialog, "she" is a grammatically accurate method by which to refer to her.

Does that clear things up for you?

The one in Bosnia? As an NCO, it is my JOB to instructe soldiers. Thanks for proving my point on that one.

And THAT includes PT in the gym? Ah, I don't think so. Her PT was none of your business, unless NCOs are in charge of PT.

Furthermore, IF it WAS your responsibility, which I highly doubt, what were you doing "whispering in her ear."?? Did you make it a habit of putting your mouth that close to all the soldiers' ears? If so, you probably should have been whispered to by YOUR commanding officer.

The one in the barracks that killed a young NCO’s career? Again, my JOB as a guard.

As the barracks' guard, wasn't it your job to keep the woman out, unless she ("she" in this case is refering to the woman who "killed" the young NCO'S career)had official business being there. Did she have official business being there? Was it not your job, as the guard, to see to it that unauthorized personnel were not admitted? So, what you are saying is that, by failing to do your job, a young NCO's career was ruined.

Now, before you start ranting in anger….

And just to clarify, I was not the one ranting, you were. Although I do not expect you to comprehend that.

You failed to address ANY of my first hand experience.

The issue of "fear". Fear is what an "intelligent" person has. Based on experience and understanding. You lump all men together into one hateful being.

If your emotions allowed you to notice, (they didn't) there was some women that I enjoyed hanging out with.

Back to "fear"; all intelligent creatures KNOW that something, somewhere, sometime is going to come after them. I know that, which is why I never sleep in an unSecure room. I, as a man, KNOW that there is evil out there and I must take care of myself. YOU only know "men" are evil.

I know that evil comes in all shapes and sizes and sexes. I prepare. I don't blame others or accuse an entire sex of being evil, as you do. I am a very "verticlly-challenged" man and like most women, easily overpowered physically.

I don't expect (like you) for others to protect me. I have a weapon in my car (9mm) and a 40cal by the bed. I don't bitchh about how the world is (men for you) out of control. I KNOW the world is out of control and I "prepare" for it.

I lift the seat because women like me to do so. To bad they can't treat me as I do them.

Women should only live in fear if they are not prepaired. Women should not be stupid when living on the first floor ANYWHERE and leave the windows unlocked.

According to you, I'm not your mental equal, but I do lock my windows and doors.

So I'm way smarter than THAT woman.

As to it not being my business what she was doing—-which SHE.

Your emotions took over and you were not CLEAR as to which she.

The one that got raped? It became my business when I had to stand in a formation on sat morning while that idiot walked thru our ranks of only men accused for no reason then we had a penis.

The one in Bosnia? As an NCO, it is my JOB to instructe soldiers. Thanks for proving my point on that one.

The one in the barracks that killed a young NCO's career? Again, my JOB as a guard.

In closing, thanks for proving my point here. Now, before you start ranting in anger about how much more intelligent you are than me, do yourself a favor and take a

As for your assertion that it is the men’s problem—your wrong. Each person is responsible for their own safety. Only an idiot sleeps with the window unlocked on a base with a shortage of women. Stupid!

My point exactly. According to YOU women must live in FEAR because men are such weak-minded animals that they can't control their base needs. Thank you for that touch of enlightenment.

While I’m at it, women need to learn how to “put the seat down”.

I don’t bitchhh about lifting it up.

Really!?? You appear to be bitching about everything else. And the only reason YOU would have to lift the seat in the first place is because you couldn't avoid pissing on the seat.

If you think your equal then act like your equal.

Oh, with all due respect Sir, we are NOT equals. I am eminently more intelligent than you. Do not insult me by even suggesting that you are MY equal.
