Message	:S See what happens! Give em an inch and they take a mile! I tell you what, if some nutty lady wants to be a man, let her go and have a try at the front lines. But not my Nelly! You leave her be, she '''prefers''' to stay at home, barefoot and pregnant, gently stirring my porridge when I'm out defending Beluzia. I might be willing to consider a gay squad as well, so long as they shut up and get back in the closet. If their willing to die like everybody else, I see room for compromise, but keep them out of our showers!

Message	And if it�s going to be equal-entry, it must be equal performance as well! These women and homosexuals are unlikely to be able to meet the rigorous training regimen required by Beluzias elite assault squads. Why, the Peoples youth squadlings averaged 60 pushups a minute in recent trials! If unusual persons wish to enlist, they must meet Beluzias highest standards. The same w cripples, and the elderly. If they can perform at or above the standard, they can fight. If they cannot, they'd be of more use in the Peoples attic and armchair anti-aircraft missile production squads! Our supply just can't keep up with demand! http://www.canit.se/~griffon/aviation/text/missiles/humrdy.jpg

Message	Against both. Sex and relationships of any kind are inappropriate on the frontline. They make people irrational in a time when they need to be level-headed. Before I get lambasted for being sexist I would like to point out that if women were the majority of soldiers I would ban men from joining but as this is not the case I think woman should not be allowed to serve so as to make the frontline singlesex. Removing sex from the frontline is also my reason for banning homosexuals from joining.

Message	@PAL Do you support segregated units for women then? In addition, this bill has nothing to do with homosexuals in the military that is an entirely different law.

Message	TSP: yeah I just realised that it was a seperate issue, sorry. However, the seperate units would be hard to keep apart during war and mergers and if soldiers wanted to swap unit so i tink for simplicities sake it should just be men.

Message	Why are you pushing our women into combat? Let them serve if they want to, but they should never be forced onto frontlines! Times are not yet THAT desperate! We need MOTHERS for the next generation!
