Oh boy, oh boy. This is a chance to utilize the information we're given upon introduction. It's true that women cannot enlist in combat positions of critical importance (grenadier, engineer, combat sniper, etc.), but they <b>can</b> join the infantry and be a grunt. Me? I went all the way and became a Ranger (so very much harder than you think). The reason women cannot enlist in these significant positions is because studies have shown that they're inferior the men in terms of keeping calm in combat and performing to their utmost capabilities. They also pose as a distraction both socialy and physically. In the end, women are better suited out of combat (though Annie Oakly could give any of my snipers a run for their money), but steps have been taken to ensure that they do infact see it if they so desperately want to, just for the sake of equal rights for all genders (though they wouldn't like Afghanistan, extremely unforgiving. Take it from a guy who say combat there 1st hand). And remeber, Rangers lead the way! Hoo-ah!
Yeah the point of flig migs is to entrance your jig to do a bliggidy foof. Anyhow~, wanting to be the color you are in real life doesn't mean you're a racist, just a realist. Or yeah I guess you could be racist still but I think a majority of people want to be white or black just because they are in real life.
I'd get back to the topic if I could remember what it was. And to end that discussion just go to www.army.com . The usamry doesn't allow women to be in actual combat. My sister is in the army and she is just an officer.

The "soon to be going gold" announcement for the codin was made 5 days ago, so the code must be nearing completion. Then all we gotta do is "suffer" through the PR blitz, and then gots ourselves a pretty new mod to feast our beatty little eyes on. (Alright...I suck at the english language and I am too poor to buy a dictionary...cut me some slack. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo--> )
