Blair, former chair of Commission on Military Training and Gender-Related Issues, was against admitting women to the Virginia Military Institute in 1997 and, in a report filed in 1999, argues that the military should not be changed to make it more accessible to women, but that recruiting policies should be changed to assure more "combat and general-replacement" male personnel.

No, what Blair opposed was the prejudiced abuse of anti-discrimination legislature that forcing VMI to accept women as a result of its federal funding represented. Since the same standards are not applied to all female institutions, in much the same way that 90% minority higher education isn't forced to integrate whitey, she was on solid legal ground in terms of questioning the constitutionality of such government intervention.

Never mind that labelling someone who does not want to put women in the front lines as an "anti-woman" activist is a cruel irony...
