An academic report has recommended the Maine Corps stop using terms for drill instructor that denote their gender

"Honestly, that’s not a quick fix. What are we inculcating in our young recruits that will or will not be reinforced when they graduate and enter the fleet Marine force?," he said."So again, we want to avoid any quick-fix solutions that introduce perturbations down the line."

The report was part of an effort by the military branch to integrate boot camp. Until 2019, all female recruits were trained in a single battalion at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, South Carolina. Women now train at both Marine Corps boot camps, the other being the Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, but training materials have been slow to catch up to that reality, the Military Times reported.

The report focuses on how the Maines Corps uplifts male Marines by using masculine language and allegedly ignoring female Marines. It found the PowerPoint slides from the"A leader who is confident in his decisions instills confidence in his Marines," one line read. The study also found that female Marine drill instructors were sometimes treated as less important than their male counterparts.

Our military is a joke. I served 8 years, I would know.

It can’t get worse

Proving you are just CNN with a different name

Everybody commenting on this calm down We use ranks instead of sir/ma'am anyway so it's not a big deal

U put ur feet on the yellow prints, there’s no time for wokeness. What shit

If you want gender specific..then don't join the military. When your in the military there are protocols that you follow,that have been in place since we have had an army and that should never change. The weak minded or gender sensitive or sensitive minded should not join simple.

THE MARINES SHOULD FORTET GENDERS AND FOCUS ON LEGALLY MURDERING PEOPLE MORE!

Well, Maine Corps can stop, but expect the US Marine Corps.

Oh good grief just get over it already

Not much going on in this country gives me the confidence that the future will be ok

'Tench Hut,' if you don't mind.

Wow we have come to this point!?!? Marines going genderless ?!?

Because that’s a real issue… 🤡

All DIs now must be called 'Butch'.

This is the foolish things I've read in a very long time. Southerners use the terms ma'am and sir as a form of respect. The military is the same, you're showing respect to one's rank.

The world is laughing at us.

Booo leave the marine corps alone ..let the men be men . You feminist go back into yoyr caves

And this will cause the marine that is highly respected to allow girl in man body can't shoot because it's tooo sensitive for him/her? 😳😳😪😪

What would chesty puller say

How soft are we going to get?

Sounds great! Let's destroy the Marine Corps also. That should help to further weaken the country so we can be overrun by our enemies. Anyone in support of this is either determined to destroy the United States or is simply braindead.

They're changing everything about America. They opened the border to all southern countries without blinking an eye, they're turning everything that use to be right into wrong & wrong into right, they are & have been turning Americans against each other to include families.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So we should get rid of any talk that shows respect then? Please.

Just stop with all the dumb shit already

Bureaucratic nonsense

Whatever happened to the Bill Clinton stay in the closet law democrats embraced so dearly. If a bomb is coming at me please don’t hesitate to figure out the woke gender BS.

But they will still eat crayons!!

This is beyond stupid. As a Marine if I wanted to be like the other branches I would have joined the Army. leave the marine corps alone

The hell with so called genders and do your job and cover things that matter not distract.
