If women can meet the minimum basic requirements for a combat arm, I don't see why they'd shouldn't be permitted to fight. I've known plenty of females who were fitter and more athletic than many males I've known. Just 'cause someone's got boy parts doesn't automatically make them a better warrior than someone who doesn't.
That said, ATM, I'm not sure why women would want to serve in the military. I mean, the U.S. military is currently experiencing an unprecedented epidemic of sexual assaults, most of which either go unreported or, if they are reported, unpunished. If that's what a woman can expect in her own military, women need to be very clear on what might happen should they be captured by an enemy force.
