Nah. In the military, you aren’t “men and women” you are “soldiers” (or sailors, Marines, or airmen). If you are referring specifically to a specific gender such as a “female” soldier, then that’s what you call them.
No one says “women soldiers” except maybe a civilian.

And I’m not telling you to, stop putting words in my mouth. Female as an adjective is fine, “female soldier” is fine, calling a group of human women “females”, as in a noun, is demeaning and incel lingo.

“They said”
If only there was some generally agreed upon symbol to denote direct quotes as opposed to paraphrasing an idea in your own words. If only…
You sound like a miserable person
I’d rather sound miserable than incel.
Really? You sound both miserable and incel. You failed.
If only there were fewer dickheads looking for a fight online. If only.
