No problem with this

Women, who make up some 14 percent of the armed forces, should finally be permitted to serve fully in front-line combat units, a military advisory panel says.

The call by a commission of current and retired military officers to dismantle the last major area of discrimination in the armed services could set in motion another sea change in military culture as the armed forces, generations after racial barriers fell, grapples with the phasing out of the ban on gays serving openly.

As long as they have to pass exactly the same physical readiness tests as males, I think this is a hell of an idea. If they can perform all aspects of the mission, let ’em have at it.
