If women are a distraction on the front lines, it could only be the result of poor training and a lack of discipline on the part of the male troops. If you're in the middle of a firefight and you're thinking with your dick, you shouldn't be in a firefight. In fact, you shouldn't be in the army at all, because you are an undisciplined liability.
I don't think women being a distraction is relevant at all because when it comes down to it the people who are in charge of training and commanding the military set the tone. If they foster an environment where inequality among the genders is the status quo, then they have only themselves to blame if women on the front lines are a distraction. I've heard that the american military is one of the most disciplined in the world. How disciplined are our soldiers if they can't handle fighting next to someone with a vagina? Not very.
