‘Army Weak’ Fitness Standards for Women
Degrading fitness requirements for women degrades military readiness.
Hey, why do we need an army at all? To fight who exactly? We are already out of AFG, almost out of the ME, we should be getting out of Europe (can't fight there anyway as Germans don't have an army, French are... well, French and Russians have nukes so it's a non-starter right there). What's left? Canadians? Mexicans? Puhleeze!

The military is what backs up our dollar. It's used to go to war with any nation that is sufficiently easy to knock over. We don't have to win the war, just take their resources off the market and bully them to stick with the US dollar.
All militias have been obsolete since the nuclear bomb was created.
Your last sentense contradicts the opening premise: if all militaries are obsolete since nukes were created how the fuck our military supposedly "backs up our dollar"?
As detailed by The Hill, the decision follows a RAND-led study that found men could easily pass the new Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) in comparison to women and older soldiers who were “failing at noticeably higher rates.”
Indeed, the new standardized test developed for both men and women was easier for men to pass and harder for women. The test, which was is made up of six events, was developed in 2019, and was an expansion from the three events — push-ups, sit-ups and a run — that soldiers were previously subjected to.
“This test is an essential part of maintaining the readiness of the Army as we transform into the Army of 2030,” said Army Secretary Christine Wormuth. “The revisions to the ACFT are based on data and analysis, including an independent assessment required by Congress. We will continue to assess our implementation of the test to ensure it is fair and achieves our goal of strengthening the Army’s fitness culture.”

"Listen you Bigot, allowing women in the military won't result in lower standards!"
