I think that perhaps the question might be better put as "Are people who can't perform up to task worth that risk to death benefits and combat readiness of their unit?" because (and please correct me if I've read you wrong..) I'm thinking that if a male could pass the standard expected of a female you wouldn't believe that he was capable of doing the job.
I'm thinking this has less to do with gender, and more to do with the armed forces having differing standards?
