Once you've seen a woman desperately trying and trying to just load an assault rifle (HK G3A3) you quickly change your mind from
"Let's all run around with flowers in our hair!" to "Never change a running system!"
When you see them collapsing to the ground in pain, being unable to run a few miles due to monthly circumstances, you start to imagine "What if..."
Women in combat units? No thanks!
Women in the military? Of course, no question about that.

I cannot assess that, have no such experience myself. To me, the military shall not know men and women. Only soldiers, or more precise: warriors. Either a person has qualified to be one, or not. The women you describe, obviously have not.
