The joy of being a separate individual is that other people don't decide my opinions; I am indifferent, merely stating factual information that the previously listed countries do employ female soldiers in direct combat roles. I compiled and presented the list for one simple reason; I hate arguments based on false perception and false information.
I noted the point about "reality not caring for your feelings" because I was anticipating your type of response, as people have a tendency to make up arguments and motives whenever they are confronted by factual information contradicting their personal views. Your response has done nothing to change my mind on this matter.
At no point did I state that "no one cares about this issue", I realize people care about this issue, but the same people seem to make up arguments such as, and I quote from the original post of this thread:
[...] there are women in combat roles in the modern age (though they are very few and far between).
Which I conclusively showed is not the case in most western countries.
You are free to feel one way or the other on this subject, I really could not care less. What I do care about and take issue with is you trying to tell me what my position is on a certain subject, even when I specifically have stated that I am indifferent on the subject.
Sure Jan.
