Should these women now face a dishonourable discharge, for a self inflicted condition, making them unfit for active service?

[sp1814]

Blimey!!!

54 years is good going!

In answer to the original question - no, they should not be dishonourably discharged, and if they WERE, and it was a member of army personnel who got them pregnant, he too should face disciplinary action.

All very well for the girls eh! But what's your take on a chap shooting himself in the foot, to work his ticket?

"Yellow streak a mile wide down his back", "coward", "hand out the white feather", "slam him in the cooler", "weak chicken livered individual", all of these I hear you say, so what's the difference?

I still maintain they should be set an example of, and dishonourably discharged, or better still made to serve out the rest of their tour, pregnant or not.

And of course it goes without saying, that the men (if they know who they are), should also be disciplined, when they have finished their tour.

But of course not in such a severe way, since the onus is mainly with the female, she of course can always say NO!.

Thanks for the congratulations Steve, it's not been an easy ride.

/// But you must stop reading that publication & its half cocked headlines.They are making you a laughing stock.///

Judging by the number of other publications reports, it is not only the Daily Mail that thought it newsworthy.

Just because you don't like the content of a news report, you can't stop it being reported, it is called news.

And since this is the News Topic, I have every right in posting it. At least it has livened up things on this otherwise fast becoming boring site.

I simply don't believe it:

"But of course not in such a severe way, since the onus is mainly with the female, she of course can always say NO!."

Incredible!!

[LoftyLottie]

Exactly!!

Same old story.......employ a woman and she becomes valueless as she becomes pregnant.

I thought that if women didn't want intercourse, they just had to say "No".....obviously they wanted it and the men "obliged"...........as a favour perhaps.


Self explanatory......nothing "incredible"

[LoftyLottie]

I just knew you would made an appearance!!

Wormed the cats yet!??

[Sqad]

lofty....lost at snooker 2-1 so I'm in a bad mood.

No, but when I do worm them I will use your technique as I should have done in the first place.

[LoftyLottie]

LOL

[Sqad]

Zeuhl....LOL

[cazzz1975]

I think there is sexual tension between lofty and sqad..

[Sqad]

cazz....you better believe it. You know when a woman is madly in love with you, she denies it, vehemently stating...."I can't stand him"......"I would like to see the back of him"

She doesn't feel me cazz.

[LoftyLottie]

No Cazz, just a new found understanding.

//// I like the fact that AOG has also come up with a paedophile defence; 'what's wrong with these children, they can always say no.' ////

I bow to your superior knowledge on this Zeuh, not being a paedophile I would not know of this defence.

But I am afraid your analogy doesn't hold water. We are talking about adults here, and the fact remains, an adult female can always say NO! otherwise it is rape.

Sorry but in this instance they just cannot shift the responsibility onto the male.

[Sqad]

LOL LOL LOl....cazz...I mean "fool" me LOL LOL well if she wants to "feel" me.................no problem there LOL

[LoftyLottie]

Sqad, I am so glad you corrected that!!! LOL LOL. I was somewhat concerned!!
