Re: before you knock the return to high school argument Grimbear Send a noteboard - 30/09/2009 01:10:35 AM
You should keep in mind the fact that a lot of these people will just out of high school. A good majority will ship off for bootcamp with in two months of graduating and will be on the first duty station with in a year of leaving high school.


Most submariners have been out of boot camp for 6 months to a year before reporting to their first boat. That being said if you are looking for maturity and professionalism you might not want to look to the sub community. :) We get the job done in an efficient and effective manner but we are like little kids in a lot of ways. :)

As I understand it, there are very good reasons why they don't let women on submarines. Tim - 28/09/2009 09:50:39 PM 571 Views
frankly i get along better with women who are menstruating with me. LadyLorraine - 28/09/2009 11:26:05 PM 524 Views
Like I said, it's possible pills will solve the problem. *NM* Tim - 29/09/2009 09:20:42 AM 257 Views
I agree. The idea is not a good one for many obvious reasons. everynametaken - 29/09/2009 12:38:08 AM 511 Views
seems like a strange choice to me random thoughts - 28/09/2009 10:26:24 PM 550 Views

Correct and yet it happens all too frequently already. everynametaken - 29/09/2009 12:43:15 AM 510 Views
In my mind, that's a pretty pathetic arguement. LadyLorraine - 29/09/2009 01:02:31 AM 577 Views

Your comparison to segregation is idiotic. I won't even give such a stupid claim a second thought. *NM* everynametaken - 29/09/2009 01:44:46 AM 224 Views
I love how you disregard my entire arguement based on that one factor LadyLorraine - 29/09/2009 01:48:09 AM 528 Views
It is an irresponsible comparison. Even in your response to my comment you can't make it work. *NM* everynametaken - 29/09/2009 06:39:48 PM 218 Views
Actually I could see her point. She was thinking along a different line than you thought she was. *NM* Tashmere - 29/09/2009 02:57:17 AM 255 Views
It's not idiotic at all. Lupine - 29/09/2009 05:21:49 AM 512 Views
Sweden has women on subs, as do (at least) Norway, Germany, Australia and Canada *NM* Floffe - 29/09/2009 07:38:43 AM 247 Views
Just wondering.. AgentOrange - 29/09/2009 12:42:22 PM 518 Views
well since all of those countries use diesel/electric subs I would no they don't stay out as long random thoughts - 29/09/2009 03:10:34 PM 496 Views
There's also the fact that none of those countries have nuclear weapons Floffe - 29/09/2009 03:14:48 PM 516 Views
As for Sweden, that sounds about right Floffe - 29/09/2009 03:12:29 PM 468 Views
Racial prejudice has nothing to do with envy over who is fucking who. It is not a valid comparison. *NM* everynametaken - 29/09/2009 06:40:57 PM 242 Views
~Plays devils advocate~ Lets pretend... Tashmere - 29/09/2009 02:54:03 AM 601 Views
By that same token, should women also be banned from long business trips? *NM* Burr - 29/09/2009 03:23:22 AM 239 Views
only the ones who don't charge for their services? *NM* moondog - 29/09/2009 03:36:03 AM 259 Views
Haha!! Touche! I concede that point. *NM* Tashmere - 29/09/2009 11:59:33 PM 222 Views

It might be true in some situations, but it's a weak argument against this issue. Lupine - 29/09/2009 05:15:47 AM 522 Views
