Actually, all of these arguments that go, "if you didn't do X, then
you can't speak about X," or "if you are not a member of Y, you can
not speak about Y," are specious.

What matters are the facts and opinions which make up the argument. 
The only time personal experience comes into play is, "George Bush
told his C.O. to f&^$ off.  I know because I was there."  Otherwise,
serving in the military, having children, being poor or of a certain
ethinicity, all give one experience to bring to an argument, but, by
no means, are requirements to speak on that subject.
