Not really. Females have a different standard. And youre not really training with the females at all. I was in an integrated company, and i saw the females marching sometimes and we got gassed together but thats about it. Basic training is a very small and insignificant part of any military career. Especially as combat arms. Your rifle companys are still all male
@Naturally toasty the standard has always been different for females. Until recently females have not been involved in combat roles. The one thing that has not changed is the combat standards. Both males and females must complete the same physical and academic standards. Which is why if you are actually in an infantry company you will very rarely see a female. People who have not served do not understand the difference between basic training. Which every marine goes through including the technical jobs such as cyber or airwing where the physical fitness really doesnt matter. Combat training is very very different. The marine corps infantry is not getting soft, and if you arent actively holding an 03 mos you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about
I remember a study was done with women's integration into combat roles. There was a platoon of all men, mixed, all women. They were given all standard infantry jobs such as tabbing however many miles, full kit, then carrying out unit attacks etc. The teams were then ranked. All men first, then the mixed team, then the all women. I'm sure there are some top notch female infantry soldiers/marines, as long as they can carry their weight and do their job to the same standards I'm not fussed
I was a combat MOS. When we did cls (combat life saving) almost none of the women were even able to drag me in full kit, I only weigh 165lbs without kit.

I remember females training in cali with us at MCT. They weren't used to the cali heat and hills that we had. I remember going up hills with most females holding the male's packs for support. We didnt complain and were happy to help. But our sergeants weren't having it.
So I was actually a part of that cycle. I was Plt 2001, and the girls were Plt 2000, so I lived on the deck on top of theirs. The only reason that the girls were at the front was so they could set the pace. All the platoons were the same distance from each other as any other company on a hike. Some females arrived at the barracks without their packs. Didn't see that from any guys.
There's a standard for a reason, it should be the same regardless of sex, if you can't meet it, you can't join We can't have exceptions just because they aren't strong enough to keep up, giving them lighter standards will be dangerous not just for them, but others around them
Yet the standard changes depending on age. A 30 year old marine does not have to run as fast as an 18 year old, and must do more pushups. Both still have the same combat expectation. Almost like the standards are based on what we can reasonably expect from a person. Forcing women to meet a standard they physically can't would effectively bar many from service. That's fewer bodies that can fight for our country. Would you rather 50 men or 50 men + 50 women? But I know what you'll say. Because this isn't about standards, it's misogyny.

You should be court martialled. I never thought id see a man LITERALLY using a fellow marine as a stepping stone. This is just the definition of toxic masculinity and IT IS NOT OK.

The female platoon is usually up in the front when hiking. We have the same weight, but they usually have a few of them fall out by the end of every hike. PT standards are different, but not by much, that's it. Give these women the respect they deserve. They are part of the few and the proud.
I've seen integrated training companies for the infantry and none of the females could actually pass the standard for infantrymen, especially on hikes.

No they need to put Parris Island back the way it was and females need to be trained in San Diego. Parris Island is male only and this side of the Mississippi at that
😂 they gave them a head start they do that all the time because they don't want to demoralize the females 😂 and when the guys catch up they force them to stop 😂
even if it did, the men carried 60-70lb bags, while the females carried 30lb bags lol, and good chance the men got beasted the entire time stopping, going etc
I went to bootcamp at Paris Island on FEB 23 2020. I was 2nd BN H CO plt 2034. We had a sister platoon, 2036. The first in H CO history. We all did the same training but the females did theirs separately at their own pace. Those female DI’s are ruthless😂😂
So we’re not gonna talk about how much slack they’re given compared to the men?In the spirit of equality, everyone should have the same standards to meet.
When I went through in 2018 we were the first company to dip our toe into “integrated training”. We didn’t do anything together per se but we’d do some of the things at the same time as them but segregated completely, except for the hike (I believe it was either a 7 or 10k). We had about 1 female for each 3 male recruits and after the first hour it had completely failed and separated into males about 1k ahead of the females. The issue was there was a news reporter who was going to take a picture at the end of the hike, so we had to slow down for the last click or so in order for them to catch back up and reintegrate. One of the biggest horse and pony shows I’ve seen in the Marines.
It's become universal in a lot countries, it's not just the US that's implementing females into combat roles, or the military in general, most countries implement females fully into combat, and support roles.
I understand the universal trend. But integrating male and females is just incorporating problems. Did the Spartans go into battle with their woman. Nope. Why would my beloved Marine Corps. That’s weakening the quality of future Marines…
Men will whine about this because it will will eventually eliminate the myths of the past that has held back all of humanity by dividing instead of accepting.
Wtf 😂 as a woman, this sounds ridiculous to me. I understand that men are genetically stronger than women, but anyone should be able to easily do at least 20 push-ups with not much training.
RIP Marine Corps. The army couldn’t kill you, but DIE did. I remember MCT. I remember the ladies couldn’t handle the load they had to Cary because it really messed with their hips.
In the army, when you have to ruck back from Vic Forge. The females quite literally couldn’t keep up. Every single one of them feel behind the whole company, and the van would just drive them to the front and drop them off. That happened like 3 times that I can remember, it’s bullshit in my opinion
@@valentinabeta2104ost female Marines I worked with in the fleet literally couldn't do 1 pull up. I'm not exaggerating. I don't know why females keep pretending they're stronger than men. It's a scientific fact men are stronger. Not doubting there's badass females out there. But just generally speaking, most female Marines would always slow down the men in training and especially on deployments, that's just a fact.
Pffff...😂 miles ahead...riiiight. Back in '00 P.I. the only females I saw was on the range....We had to do a pit working party for all the female rifle range UNQ's 😂

I was in an all male company and at the time there were few integrated companies. The integrated companies had it very different and they looked way easier
Why must the women train with the men? What was wrong with the women attending their own bootcamp? I bet the DIs aren't going to be nearly as brutal as they were when it was all male. Time will prove that this kakamamie idea is detrimental to mission readyness and morale. Semper Fi! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@@str8shooter159 In all honesty, if he had been my drill instructor at Fort Polk in 1968 I would have hated his guts. Later, when I was in Vietnam, I realized that the drill sergeants were just doing their jobs and trying their best to prepare us raw recruits for the rigors (both psychological & pbysical) of war. I realized then that I owed those men a profound debt of gratitude. They were just trying to help us to survive in an extremely hostile environment. A much belated THANK YOU to your uncle and the others (Sgt. Willie Sims of D/3/2) for a job well done. It was extremely tough training - but necessary because Fort Polk sent more soldiers to Vietnam than any other training facility. THIS WE'LL DEFEND 🇺🇸
Cap, I have worked with loads of female marines, and have met one that could keep up, and she was still average compared to the rest of us( she was built like a dude tho) I’m a infantry machinegunner 0331, rah
The reason they were in the front was to set the pace, in boot camp they always put the slow one up front to set the pace of everyone so that nobody falls out, also there packs they where on hikes are lighter
Well the thing is tho they lowered the standards for women to train with the men and while each man is carrying a 140+ lbs of extra shit they were all probably walking with your basic 40lb pack and rifle 😂
In our company we had a sister platoon. No pt with them, barely any integration. We only saw them when we were formed up in the morning and let me tell you, never have I seen a more disrespectful and undisciplined group of people in the world. It was crazy that nothing ever changed with them.
The guys stopped so they wouldn't pass the women. We had this issue when I was in bootcamp. 4th battalion did the crucible at the same time as we did. On the hump back, we had to stop and march in place so the females could gain distance. We would then catch up and repeat the process. I wish that we could've kept going. The marching in place made things more difficult.
See, this makes sense to why she said what she said. I heard that and was like “ain’t no way that happened” lol. I didn’t see women during my bootcamp other than church on Sundays, so I didn’t deal with this.
3rd Battelion kilo company 12/December/98. What helped me stay focus was that there was no women in my platoon. The things that could be said and done then made me stronger than I thought I could be than. No disrespect but that hard-core shit made me a MARINE
the 4'10 100 pound chick i knew in MCT had to carry the same weight at the same pace and distance as the 6 ft 210 guys. Females will literally break their hips mid ruc and keep pushing for miles. We all had duty and slept from balls to 0400, we all got the same mass punishment. I'd say females are held to a harder standard given their inherent disadvantage.
Bollocks the standards have been dropped back, they literally created a gender neutral basically worse standards but a cute tag and from the trainees who did it nearly all the females failed but the men passed
@@MarcoSnipes not you .. the other guy .. it is a weird comment . Probably implying that women either get raped/fucked in the military and are worthless or sumn ..
It’s a biological fact that men are stronger than women. Of course the training isn’t to the same standards. They still get equally as exhausted. Why are guys so triggered, you don’t gotta prove anything.
It's because there's literally no such thing as "masculinity" in the military anymore and just focusing on being the most badass fighting force. It's about being PC. Everyone is included. Even though the physical standards are night and day. I'll never understand why people never complain about males/females being separated in highschool sports, college sports etc. but for some reason females have to be training with males in a war fighting organization. Makes no sense. Our enemies are laughing at us.
Not gonna lie, the only thing that changed was that they don’t have their own battalion anymore, we have brother and sister companies that would match up for training events, I was in Delta 1st BN and every mayor event we had November 4th BN with us doing the training, now it’s just the three BNs
That never happened. OCS and TBS have been integrated for years and the DIs always thought the companies with female platoons were the easier ones to run because the humps were slower. It’s physics.
In all fairness boot camp isn’t any less tough for the females we all go through the same. Difference is men are genetically stronger but it was still equally hard for both
Going 13 weeks without being around females was something that made usmc bootcamp unique in my opinion
I was in the army my boot camp was 15 weeks with no females. 🤨 I was a combat engineer, so it was osut, but it was 15 weeks of bct.
It did make it unique but i think having integrated bootcamps. If the pt standards stay the same will be better for future units. Maybe increase the run distance for pfts to 4.5 miles

I bet you never went yourself did you? I did.
The ladies didn’t keep up.
No they need to put Parris Island back the way it was and females need to be trained in San Diego. Parris Island is male only and this side of the Mississippi at that
😂 they gave them a head start they do that all the time because they don't want to demoralize the females 😂 and when the guys catch up they force them to stop 😂
Damn that’s really sad💀
They should walk side by side to boost each other moral.
Hell march (24km and above)are not timed in Singapore.
I’ll take $500 for shit that never happened Alex
even if it did, the men carried 60-70lb bags, while the females carried 30lb bags lol, and good chance the men got beasted the entire time stopping, going etc
They put the females in the front to create the pace of the hike. Putting the slowest in the front per usual…
I went to bootcamp at Paris Island on FEB 23 2020. I was 2nd BN H CO plt 2034. We had a sister platoon, 2036. The first in H CO history. We all did the same training but the females did theirs separately at their own pace. Those female DI’s are ruthless😂😂
This will be a fatal mistake…
The guys were behind to get a better view
So we’re not gonna talk about how much slack they’re given compared to the men?In the spirit of equality, everyone should have the same standards to meet.
When I went through in 2018 we were the first company to dip our toe into “integrated training”. We didn’t do anything together per se but we’d do some of the things at the same time as them but segregated completely, except for the hike (I believe it was either a 7 or 10k). We had about 1 female for each 3 male recruits and after the first hour it had completely failed and separated into males about 1k ahead of the females. The issue was there was a news reporter who was going to take a picture at the end of the hike, so we had to slow down for the last click or so in order for them to catch back up and reintegrate. One of the biggest horse and pony shows I’ve seen in the Marines.
I am so concerned for the future of America it’s sickening….
It's become universal in a lot countries, it's not just the US that's implementing females into combat roles, or the military in general, most countries implement females fully into combat, and support roles.
I understand the universal trend. But integrating male and females is just incorporating problems. Did the Spartans go into battle with their woman. Nope. Why would my beloved Marine Corps. That’s weakening the quality of future Marines…
Men will whine about this because it will will eventually eliminate the myths of the past that has held back all of humanity by dividing instead of accepting.
Passing the old army pt test I believe was 12 push ups for female and 42 for males. That’s all you need to know
Wtf 😂 as a woman, this sounds ridiculous to me. I understand that men are genetically stronger than women, but anyone should be able to easily do at least 20 push-ups with not much training.
RIP Marine Corps. The army couldn’t kill you, but DIE did.
I remember MCT. I remember the ladies couldn’t handle the load they had to Cary because it really messed with their hips.
In the army, when you have to ruck back from Vic Forge. The females quite literally couldn’t keep up. Every single one of them feel behind the whole company, and the van would just drive them to the front and drop them off. That happened like 3 times that I can remember, it’s bullshit in my opinion
Yup and they cried all the way
@@Suckondeese yeah, and my tall ass was in back breathing all the dirt and bullshit and had to tough it out
She is nowhere as physically competent as a man
No, but the point is that they were mentally.
@@soulren394no they weren't and aren't. They didn't go through nearly as much as the male Marines I promise
Just another nail in the coffin of the Corps . They have pussifed it so much that even a man in his 50s could go through it
Met her during land nav, she’s a super awesome person and marine rah hotel company
The standards will drop, watch....
This is why you can’t miss leg day
FIRST MARINE TO FALL OUT OF A HIKE
"OPHA MAY JOHNSON, 1918 SIR!!!!"
That's all great, but they still lowered the requirements just so she could pass. Had they held her to equal standards, she wouldn't be a Marine.
if you’re talking pft I can pass all of the male requirements and exceed them and Im sure a lot of women can too
@@valentinabeta2104ost female Marines I worked with in the fleet literally couldn't do 1 pull up. I'm not exaggerating. I don't know why females keep pretending they're stronger than men. It's a scientific fact men are stronger. Not doubting there's badass females out there. But just generally speaking, most female Marines would always slow down the men in training and especially on deployments, that's just a fact.
male and female marines should not be integrated and training together. that’s a no from me dawg.
Pffff...😂 miles ahead...riiiight. Back in '00 P.I. the only females I saw was on the range....We had to do a pit working party for all the female rifle range UNQ's 😂
😂😂😂 I joined in 06 and same,
females only at the range, my best friend and I joined on the buddy program and were the only 2 to shoot expert in the whole platoon😂 Sdi made us sit in front of the plt and eat whopper cheese burgers as promised to all recruits who shot expert.

She seriously needs to join the “🧢in Hall of Fame” because she’s leaving out a lot of pertinent details that would put everything in perspective as to the real reason why the women were really ahead of the men. REALTALK TRUESTORY 🧢🧢🧢🤫🤫🤫👀👀👀
Girl push ups are different from normal push-ups
No, they just have less to do as a minimum
@@jamesparker7528yah like this death march lol females carrying 50% less then men
They don't allow those
yall will say and do anything to downplay women in the military, but i don't see any of you enlisting yourselves.
Didn’t they teach you to wear your caps in Basic?
Pet peeve of mine. Also saluting indoors or saluting without a cover
not during PT events, considering they’re at the football field on camp pendleton in this video
I was in an all male company and at the time there were few integrated companies. The integrated companies had it very different and they looked way easier
You aren’t a real marine
@@zipper978 i mean ok. Dont see how not. More of a marine than any pog
@@the_mexican_pyro you were in the new soft Corps.
@Feature0311 Cool story pog
Why must the women train with the men? What was wrong with the women attending their own bootcamp? I bet the DIs aren't going to be nearly as brutal as they were when it was all male. Time will prove that this kakamamie idea is detrimental to mission readyness and morale. Semper Fi! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Most of the females fell out of the first hike in MCT at Pendleton bruh and it was only a 5k
Facts
Either those boys were told to intentionally let the girls get a head start on them, or you’re a liar. There’s no way you trailed them. Especially not you.
Ah yes the smile and wave can never go wrong
Hmmmmm....
I sure wish that I had girls in my company when I did basic training at Fort Polk (Tigerland), Louisiana in 1968.
My uncle was a drill sargent at Fort Polk in 1968. His name was Alvin Johnson.
@@str8shooter159
In all honesty, if he had been my drill instructor at Fort Polk in 1968 I would have hated his guts.
Later, when I was in Vietnam, I realized that the drill sergeants were just doing their jobs and trying their best to prepare us raw recruits for the rigors (both psychological & pbysical) of war.
I realized then that I owed those men a profound debt of gratitude. They were just trying to help us to survive in an extremely hostile environment.
A much belated THANK YOU to your uncle and the others (Sgt. Willie Sims of D/3/2) for a job well done.
It was extremely tough training - but necessary because Fort Polk sent more soldiers to Vietnam than any other training facility.
THIS WE'LL DEFEND
🇺🇸
Imagine not taking a break before you walk up on the enemy
Cap, I have worked with loads of female marines, and have met one that could keep up, and she was still average compared to the rest of us( she was built like a dude tho) I’m a infantry machinegunner 0331, rah
The reason they were in the front was to set the pace, in boot camp they always put the slow one up front to set the pace of everyone so that nobody falls out, also there packs they where on hikes are lighter
Well the thing is tho they lowered the standards for women to train with the men and while each man is carrying a 140+ lbs of extra shit they were all probably walking with your basic 40lb pack and rifle 😂
She's saying that male Marines are soft.. she thinks that she's a hardass
Yeah for sure 😂
In our company we had a sister platoon. No pt with them, barely any integration. We only saw them when we were formed up in the morning and let me tell you, never have I seen a more disrespectful and undisciplined group of people in the world. It was crazy that nothing ever changed with them.
The most scariest thing that im deadly scared of:
Marine female
So now that they do everything together do the males get to hang on the bar instead of pull ups?
😂
Similar to female fire fighters. If they don’t have strength to hoist a big, injured person out of danger, why are they taking up space??
The guys stopped so they wouldn't pass the women. We had this issue when I was in bootcamp. 4th battalion did the crucible at the same time as we did. On the hump back, we had to stop and march in place so the females could gain distance. We would then catch up and repeat the process. I wish that we could've kept going. The marching in place made things more difficult.
See, this makes sense to why she said what she said. I heard that and was like “ain’t no way that happened” lol. I didn’t see women during my bootcamp other than church on Sundays, so I didn’t deal with this.
Integration is a disgrace
Hah. You asshurt?
When she said swim qual i just thought of a bunch of marines with rubber duckies and floaties in a pool lol
Why tf are we not wearing our covers outside?
Standards dropped smh.
3rd Battelion kilo company 12/December/98. What helped me stay focus was that there was no women in my platoon. The things that could be said and done then made me stronger than I thought I could be than. No disrespect but that hard-core shit made me a MARINE
the 4'10 100 pound chick i knew in MCT had to carry the same weight at the same pace and distance as the 6 ft 210 guys. Females will literally break their hips mid ruc and keep pushing for miles. We all had duty and slept from balls to 0400, we all got the same mass punishment. I'd say females are held to a harder standard given their inherent disadvantage.
True. Mad respect to all of them
Liar
Barracks bunny don't want you bro don't have to simp
Bollocks the standards have been dropped back, they literally created a gender neutral basically worse standards but a cute tag and from the trainees who did it nearly all the females failed but the men passed
Cap
Yes but the male rucksack is heavier.... plus female standards are different than men
Just like The Tortoise and The Hare. The tortoise stuck to the job until it was done.
Yeah she’s not telling the truth there bud
@@GeneralRubicon And you know this because…
30" to the left...together...the mold still builds champions..
I don ' t think lieing is good i was alwas told not to.
Pure cap.
I honestly couldn’t agree with you more!lol,smfh REALTALK TRUESTORY 😅😅😅😂😂😂👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
You guys really showed your true colors in these comments damn. To every woman who has served, thank you for your service.
We got pregnant immediately.... Part of female training
What?
@@MarcoSnipesignore lol. Probably some incel who doesn't understand how military actually works anyways 😂
@@nobitanobi3475 me or the other guy
@@MarcoSnipes not you .. the other guy .. it is a weird comment . Probably implying that women either get raped/fucked in the military and are worthless or sumn ..
We’ll guys this girl single-handedly has me thinking the military is not ready for much
It’s the same in the Army. Men and Women train together. Only thing not together is the barracks room(s) you all sleep in.
It’s a biological fact that men are stronger than women. Of course the training isn’t to the same standards. They still get equally as exhausted. Why are guys so triggered, you don’t gotta prove anything.
It's because there's literally no such thing as "masculinity" in the military anymore and just focusing on being the most badass fighting force. It's about being PC. Everyone is included. Even though the physical standards are night and day. I'll never understand why people never complain about males/females being separated in highschool sports, college sports etc. but for some reason females have to be training with males in a war fighting organization. Makes no sense. Our enemies are laughing at us.
I am smashing the doubt button right now. If it happened then they weren't carrying any gear
They got a ride to the finish line
I was with Hotel Company, the last iteration to be non integrated. Glad to have not had it integrated honestly
Nah that was to tell them that the guys were about to run after them and pass them😂💀
Not gonna lie, the only thing that changed was that they don’t have their own battalion anymore, we have brother and sister companies that would match up for training events, I was in Delta 1st BN and every mayor event we had November 4th BN with us doing the training, now it’s just the three BNs
That never happened. OCS and TBS have been integrated for years and the DIs always thought the companies with female platoons were the easier ones to run because the humps were slower. It’s physics.
Case of the men working smarter not harder
I've been to Parris Island inside the USMC camp for NJROTC.
It’s so much easier to be at the front of the march, they didn’t see all gaps they were creating behind them
I was there we were ordered to slow down and let them get ahead😊
1000th comment, I shall celebrate my thanking our female and male service-members for their incredible work.
“Ladies first “
“they just stopped and we didn’t” yeah because they were doing push ups with their rucks on while you were leisurely walking with your day back
Yeah no way in hell were the males falling behind exhausted while the females were chilling ahead lmao
In all fairness boot camp isn’t any less tough for the females we all go through the same. Difference is men are genetically stronger but it was still equally hard for both
Beginning of the end.
