Recruit Training: Gender Segregation?

Postby Southern Patriots » Sat Jul 23, 2011 12:15 pm

Does your military take both men and women?
In recruit/basic training are men and women integrated or segregated?
That is, in your initial entry training do they train together, live together, etc? Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period?

This is not about active service or advanced training (due to the wide number of support roles that naturally require gender integration).

In Southron's Defence Force, men and women may join, and recruit training is gender segregated primarily due to physical differences.
Training takes into consideration the difference in physical strength and endurance between male and female recruits. The physical conditioning program has two primary objectives: to achieve and maintain a peak level of physical fitness, and to build confidence. Due to strength and endurance differences, initial physical fitness standards are different for male and female recruits. Fully integrated recruit training with a common standard would result in either lowering the male standards or increasing the female failure/attrition rates — neither of which is acceptable.
Female recruits go through Russell Burnham Barracks near Wankie for training. The fort there is also home to a variety of support trade training schools, which are fully integrated.

The military accepts both males (Non-Human and Human) and Non-Human females in combat roles. The only roles Human females are accepted in are support roles like nurses and officer's secretaries (only the Human officers, though).

Our military takes both men and women, of any sapient species found in the Reich, and has done so for centuries.

In recruit/basic training are men and women integrated or segregated?
Integrated in all forces except the Joint Strike Wing training program, as well as any Tank Witch battalion training programs. There, women are separated from men.

That is, in your initial entry training to they train together, live together, etc?
See above.

Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period?
Technically no, but that doesn't stop the recruits. We tend to turn a blind eye to that sort of thing.

The People's Army is made of Male citizens that serve for five years from 18-23, although they can serve longer by choice.However, the professional army (which is based on abilites already possesed) can and does have both men and women.

Does your military take both men and women?

Yes. Men and women may both enlist as young as eighteen years of age.

In recruit/basic training are men and women integrated or segregated?

Full segregation is practiced. In the early days we experimented with an integrated training facility so as to save money, but fraternization was too much of a problem, and it became obvious that if we were going to train an effective and competent military without too much fuss, segregation was going to be necessary.

Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period?

No, they most certainly are not, as this would constitute fraternization within the chain of command, which is strictly forbidden by the Uniform Code of Military Justice, both in training, and in the military as a whole.

Men are given the glorious positions on the front lines as well as the less glorious ones as the aerocorps and trossen while women are requited as nurses.
It goes without saying that they are segregated

Does your military take both men and women? Yes. Women were first allowed into the Red Liberation Army when it was merely a collection of militias fighting against the King, during the revolution of 1879.

In recruit/basic training are men and women integrated or segregated? Fully integrated.

That is, in your initial entry training do they train together, live together, etc? Yes. Male and female recruits train, sleep, eat, and live in the same areas.

Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period? Yes. However, two military personnel wishing to have sex must practice 'safe sex'.

The Army takes both man and women. Actually our policy is that the whole family must join military and grow up in Special Military Zone, like a country in itself, away from civilian zone. These people are genetically bred to be stronger, taller, braver, and just smart enough to take instructions. Occasionally, a soldiers family may gave birth to an intelligent child, then the child along with the family may be permitted to live in so-called civilian cities. Soldiers family may never know the existence of outside civilian zone- composed of party members, intellectuals, "brain workers". The third zone is the Industrial zone- where industrial laborers work. However this zone is not exclusive, laborers can travel to Civilian Zone.

There are 35,064,000 total soldiers today, or 1.2% of population. The target number based on the constitution is 262 980 000 soldiers, which became really unrealistic.

They ride on the same trucks to the bases together, they get their heads shaved together, they have the same restrooms, they shave, shower, get dressed, and sleep together. If they want they can have sex, it isn't unheard of and they are given condoms, and females are given birth control pills, so pregnancy is extremely rare, especially since the very first thing they learn is a basic sex ed class that teaches them how to properly use it. Regardless, sex is very uncommon in the military amongst personnel.

Also, part of the reason are soldiers have been called warrior monks is because they can't smoke, drink, or have unprotected sex, any sex unless they are on leave, or any sex in foreign countries (as in with the inhabitants, sex with other personnel or individuals from our country is fine) at all (it isn't racism, it is partly the fact that our people have always been rather obsessed with safe sex, and partly the fear that the foreigners may somehow gain sensitive info or harm the personnel).

Does your military take both men and women?
Yes. It is the mark of any civilised Western state. Women are allowed to serve in direct combat occupational specialties, including armour and infantry, although this is exceedingly rare as women are required to meet the same physical standards as their male counterparts, something that most women who enlist have difficulty.

Currently, women are allowed to serve aboard submarines.

In recruit/basic training are men and women integrated or segregated?
Recruits are segregated into either male or female training standards during basic combat training in the Royal Navy or Royal Marines. They occupy separate housing, use separate showers and bathrooms, and train to separate standards. During advanced occupational training for either infantry or armour, however, females are held to the same standard as male soldiers.

Recent political protest and budget talks have brought up the question of desegregating the military genders, citing the cost of maintaining separate facilities, and the historical conduct of female naval personnel and aviators aboard warships.

That is, in your initial entry training do they train together, live together, etc?
No, they do not.

Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period?
No, but soldiers are given essentially free reign after training to marry, flirt, conduct intercourse, etc. The only restriction is that between enlisted and commissioned or specialist (Gallan eqv. of an American Warrant Officer) personnel.

Both males and females are recruited

Integrated in all military branches, including Special Forces. Exception: The Knights of the Inner Circle are all male and do not recruit (get re-cloned).

That is, in your initial entry training to they train together, live together, etc?
They do everything together, have the same barracks, food, training etc.

Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period?
Relationships are allowed; sexual activities are frowned upon- currently there is no legislative that clearly forbids it. The Order is aware that pregnant women statistically fight worse than non-pregnant women

Integrated, though we encourage the women to take roles of field medics and marksman as to put them a bit farther from the front lines.

Yes, though restrooms, changing areas and the like will be segregated.

they can do so during off duty times, however they must realize that in combat, they may never see each other again and will have to move on. not only that, but if relationships lead to misconduct, subversion, and treason during a battle, the punishment will be severe.

The works. We don't tolerate wimps. Anyone who expected things to be made easier for them based on their original gender wouldn't have made it past Immigration.

All sexual bio-analogous modification parts will be confiscated. We can't have soldiers trying to think with their groinal regions when they're supposed to be learning how to do war. If the lack of parts isn't a sufficient deterrent, the soldier will be given a code-based desexing patch that kills all such urges during their time of service.

Not in barracks. And on leave, soldiers and sailors are required to behave with decorum. Fraternisation between ranks is of course strictly forbidden at all times.

Yes, like everything in our society the army too accepts members of both genders equally.

Not only are they integrated in training but also in all other activities. Housing, bathrooms and everything else is completely unisex.
We in Purpelia do not believe that any sort of separation or difference should exist between genders.

Are sexual relationships permitted during this training period?

Not only are they permitted but they are encouraged. After all Purpelia is the land of free love. And sexed up soldiers with emotional ties to their fellows will fight harder and complain less. After all, if the soldiers can find a way to amuse them self and raise morale during training and combat on their own the state should not discourage them.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.
