And as you have had pointed put there is female influence in the military.
There are women wing commanders, squadron commanders, ship captains, making purchasing decisions at the Pentagon, generals, and admirals.

Oh and please provide links to "purchasing decisions at the pentagon, generals, admirals" and i dont want links to those who are, as I have pointed out, they make up less than 20% of the military, which I posted a link to. So even if they do hold some of those positions, its still FAR LESS of an influence than men have.
You've contributed pretty much Nothing, Please try again.

And what you provided, even factually, still provided no support to a counter argument. It doesn't matter if they hold a couple positions, if they hold less than 20% of the total people in that branch.edit on 28-8-2013 by shaukuna because: (no reason given)
President Obama has nominated defense industry executive Deborah Lee James to the post of secretary of the U.S. Air Force, according to the White House.
James is the president of the technology and engineering sector at the McLean, Va.-based Science Application (SAIC), where she has been an executive since 2004. If confirmed by the Senate, James would succeed Michael Donley, who retired in June.
In December 2003, the Pentagon announced the project was to be frozen while an investigation of allegations of corruption by one if its former procurement staffers, Darleen Druyun (who had moved to Boeing in January) was begun.
Wolfenbarger runs, and until last week Dunwoody ran, their services’ weapons-development and logistics operations. The coincidence is not surprising. Early in their careers, women were barred from combat — and in the Army they still are – ruling them out of most four-star billets. Dunwoody, 59, commanded 69,000 people as chief of Army Material Command from Alabama’s Redstone Arsenal until Aug. 7; her retirement ceremony is set for Wednesday in Washington. Wolfenbarger, 53, heads the Air Force Materiel Command at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio, and its 83,000 civilian and military personnel.
