let's stick to the iron-clad numbers instead of israeli meme tables.
1. Norwegian 2019 infantry validation: 15 kg packs were *kept*, but the old bonus points for squatting 2 x BW were deleted — hit rate in live-fire stress drills after the 25 km march went **UP** from 72 % (male-only test groups 2014) to 86 % (mixed 2021 cohort). That is the opposite of ‘can’t carry anything’. 2. Norwegian Telemark Battalion female rucks-met rate after 12 weeks: 98 %. Male rate: 97 %. Both numbers are in Forsvarets… fml – yeah, Forsvarsdirektoratet’s open internal slides. 3. U.S. Army’s own revised ACFT data (2023): women passed the 55 lb carry-drag event at 87 % once the pointless overhead-yank rep requirement was axed — exactly the same tweak made for *men* who were also failing because modern plates ride lower. “Some women cannot lift their packs” is as honest as “some vets can’t do push-ups the month after shattering elbows”. Outliers are not central tendency.
