    I love when people that haven't served try to change my mind about women serving on subs.
    They'll say something like, when we had coed dorms in college, or how their office is now coed.

    To be fair they should have subs with females only crews where men are not allowed to serve.
    That might be the solution. :dunno:

    2 problems.

    1) Not enough of a pool of women in each craft.

    2) As soon as a pregnancy is determined, that woman must immediately be removed from the vessel due to the reactor.
    Subs can rarely transfer anyone immediately.
    Then the crew is short a trained person.

    The Navy tried to have women nukes in the 80s. 6 year hitch. 2 years of training. 1 year to qualify on a sub. Tha leaves 3 years to get their money's worth.
    Throw 1 or 2 pregnancies in there, and you've spent a quarter million $ training for nothing.
