…the criticism of Webb revolves not around opposition to women in combat, but to his specific comments. “Thunder thighs”; arguing that women CANNOT provide combat leadership; saying that “Many women appear to be having problems with their sexuality”; etc.
This isn’t criticism “from the left” — it’s merely an observation that Webb has made some very offensive comments about women.
