Obviously, he was speaking sarcastically. It's drawing a lot of criticism from various groups though. And speaking from my own experience in the US military, while a large percent of the US military is female, the percentage of attractive females is very low. I doubt the handful of attractive females on a single boat would want the rest of the crew drooling over them. Second, when there are 100 men to 1 women, even the ugliest woman suddenly becomes a 10, leading to a crash when every one returns to reality.

I still don't think woman should be in the same units as man. All Female units? Sure, but they should not be mixed.
