should we let women guard the queen

Have to agree with the lads on this one despite being female, the recent Tehran 15 hostages farce has shown the weakness of women being in potentially difficult situations, I venture to suggest that maybe the reason the Marines did not fight back was precisely because there was a woman on board??. When it comes to a kick down , knock down dragout situation, it's the lads who are best at dealing with this one.
This is yet one more example of the feminisation of the forces and look where it has brought us, the Royal Marines, the toughest regiment in any man's army will not fight it's way of a situation and whatever may be said in public , I would not be surprised if in the confines of a ships cabin amoung the lads the suspicion will remain that it was because there was a woman on that patrol boat was the reason that the Marines, an elite unit did not fight back.
