Female Marines and the 3 pull-up debate
They're talking about LOWERING the standards!!!! How could you not be able to do THREE freaking pullups? How is it possible to even contemplate the possibility of calling someone a Marine unless they are in reasonable shape. Apparently they're going to have to change their slogan. It used to be "The Few, The Proud, The Marines" and now it will have to be "The Fat, The Out-Of-Shape, The Wimps!" At a minimum males should be required to do TWELVE pullups and females required to do EIGHT pullups. Anything less is not worthy of respect and is a total joke!
