I don't follow your reasoning Letum.
What happens in real life is around 20% of male and 80% of female applicants are not physically able to handle the physical rigors of Infantry combat training (and therefore the RL combat situations the training is designed to test suitability for). This disparity leads to accusations of sexism, which forces the Army to lower the training standards so that more women can pass. The overall effect is a less able infantry force with higher casualty rates.
