You think *possibly* quite a few women fought Alexander's armies? Really? Maybe
they fought off rapists but I seriously doubt they fought as soldiers, but then
maybe you could enlighten us with some archeologically/anthropological
facts.Warriors, particularly Kshatriya were *protectors* of women, children the
elderly and society in general. Stories of Amazons were just that, stories and
legends by the Greeks.You might listen to a few more Maharishi tapes regarding
the human nervous system. He frequently spoke about women having a more refined
and delicate nervous system which allowed them to have even deeper experiences
than many men. He also spoke about the effects of stress on human
evolution.Maharishi said that a new born's level of consciousness is closest to
that of the mother. What effect would something like PTSD have on a child born
to a mother with that condition. We know the kinds of effects Alcohol, and
drugs consumed by pregnant mothers has on new born children.
So far, women haven't been forced into combat situations, exposing them to
that trauma. Do we really want to go there? Yeah, I do think exposing women to
the trauma of combat could make them, in general, terrible mothers. In our
current social structure, women are the nurturers while fathers are the
providers. Do you want mothers with PTSD raising small children? Shaken baby
syndrome is bad enough already. Reintroducing tens of thousands of women of
child baring age, back from combat, could only make such situations worse.
"I have no idea what you're talking about" was probably the most intelligent
comment you have made in that post.

WWMD? Doesn't sound very *Vedic* to me. Wondering how many women fought
Alexander the Great.
Possibly quite a few.
Doesn't Maharishi talk about the delicate female nervous system and it should
be protected to protect future generations, or sumpin like that?
What in the world does this mean?
We're already producing a lot of *f*ed up kids as it is.
What are you talking about here and how does this point relate to either what
MMY said (whatever it was) or the point in question?
Imagine women coming home from prolonged military engagements and then having
kids.
Do you think this isn't happening? What are you trying to imply here?
That women who serve in the military or in combat positions will make terrible
mothers? Huh?
I don't know, maybe just the *chauvinism* in me. Watcha think Emily and Anne?
I have *NO IDEA* what you are talking about.

I'm a conscientious objector and I am completely opposed to the draft for
everyone.
If there is a draft under the most extreme of circumstances, it should be an
equal opportunity draft. No more baby boomer generations! Why should society
take care of all those extra people? Who is going to pay for that?

Two generals recommended this idea to a senate panel. What do you think?
