Most of women are emotionally connect to their family and give it priority. You need to sacrifice your emotion to serve the country better with priority or believe that's whole your country is your family and you will strongly never comparison between them.

Hi friends.

This is Krishna, so today's topic is women are not fit for defence purposes. I would like to share my views in front of you all.

1) on whole men and women are strong in their own way. They can choose anything they like.

2) Usually there is a popular belief that men are both physically and mentally stronger than women but in view, it's a big no because how can compare a woman who keeps a child inside her for nine months and also take care of a family.

3) If a woman can do such works, why can't she take part in the defence sector?

4) The problem is within our minds and in our way of thinking because if a woman can take care of a family why can't she take care of a country.

5) Don't encourage them that they can't do this or that, let them do what they wish to. If they wanna be a soldier or a wrestler just support them.

Thank you.

Well, I totally don't agree with this statement. I'll not go through the emotional point of view, i'll tell you some facts. No doubt, the males are physically stronger than the females but joining the defence system is about your courage. If you are hulk and you don't have the courage to fight in the war, then it's worthless. Either it is male or female if they have the courage to fight and if they are medically fit then they can join the defence services.

As India, a secular country all men and women have given an equal position. In my opinion, women are totally fit on not only in the defence services but in all of the position of a country also.

We can go through to some examples of our brave women like Pt Usha, Saina Nehwal, Sania Mirza who has qualified in the field of sports and brought medals for our country.

The great freedom fighter like Rani Laxmi Bai a lot for our country and led our freedom fighter and brought independence.

Mother Teresa got a noble prize for the activity of social work women's reach in the pic point of the Mount Everest and arrived in the surface of the moon.

Women are nowadays struggling in the field of politics and many more aspects in the field of national growth and improvement.

As we experienced that women are now in all of the good and reputed posts like IAS doctor engineers and many more. So how can we think that they unfit in the defence? They have social value and always have the right to fight for our country as a soldier and punish the enemies and terrorist of their nation.

Women - Are they fit 4 defense services.

I am not saying every women should be taken to defense services.

In my opinion women with courage, spirit of adventure and dedication towards the country should be given a chance To prove their talent in this field.

One can't say that women are not fit for defense services.

Why should we ban them based on gender.

It is true that there exists biological differences but it could be overtaken by presence of mind and training.

If the women of our country can bring the GOLD, BRONZE & SILVER medals for our country in Olympics.

If Women reached in pic point of Mount Everest and arrived in the surface of moon.

If they can perform very well inside the police department then why don't inside the military?

Just think about women like PT Usha, Sania Mirza and Rani Laxmi bai before you say women are week!

Women are hardworking, patient and dedicated.

Let me ask you one thing how can you say a woman's week. Every women is able to survive pregnancy pain.

Pain like all the bones of our body are breaking. Every women endure that pain!

Everyone should be provided an equal opportunity to prove their worth, be it a GIRL or a BOY.

In my opinion women should be given an unbiased chance, if they seem fit they must be recruited!

Being woman in itself is a great achievement. There is hardly any field which is entirely for women or entirely for men. It's the society's views regarding women which makes us discuss such very questions about "if women are fit for army or not". My question to such a society is that what makes a girl any less than a boy? Surely the two genders have a different construct altogether, but combination of both is required to make any field excel in itself. There exists a very less percentage of girls in the Indian armed forces, this is mainly because our society is setting bogus standards and illogical rules for the women to abide by and teaching our girls "learned helplessness". I use this term because our society thinks that protecting the so-called "second gender" (women) unnecessarily is a very crucial thing to do in order to prove the masculinity of the so-called "first gender" (men) and their first place on this very land. By doing so we are spoiling our female generation by letting them accept the dependency upon the society for their very existence. Being a girl I accept that I need to lift heavy stuff, do the repairing of petty items and also be ready to help my parents and my country financially and emotionally whenever they need me. Answering this question, I also want to pose the same answer to other questions of inequality on the basis of gender as well. It is this difference because of which we celebrate women's day. The day when there would be absolute equality, we would not need such a day. We females are distinct from males in our qualities and what I know is, where one quality of male might not fit suitably, the quality of the female would do wonders at the same place and vice versa. Girls have the equal right to serve their nation as any boy might wish. After all, we all were given the same body of a human being, the difference was created by the mere choice of this society.

I'm totally against the statement that women should not join defense services. Why the doors are closed before a girl if she wants to join defense? women are equally powerful as men. They too wants to serve nation through defense.

Actually it gives a girl more self confidence and a different kind of power. She would be given more respect in the society. It is a matter of pride for a nation to show that our country is not behind in women power. Actually I'm also a girl who wants to join defense services. My parents are also supporting me.

From a very early period considering the history of our nation we could see fighter women like Rani Lakshmi Bai, Razia Sultana. They all have set examples by breaking the odds out and fighting for their nation, so why there is now a question being put upon the profession she should choose. Just because being a fragile personality doesn't imply a women need to search professions other than defense. They are equivalently strong as men. If a women is restricted from serving nation by protecting it we may loose assets like Kiran Bedi in future.

I think women can play an important role in defense services. Our honourable prime minister has showed women power to the whole world on this republic day. America president Mr.Obama has appreciated it. It is proved already that women is not less than men in any field. We talk about equality, giving rights to women is not only the equality. It should actually happen in practical. Women can do everything, what a man can do. She is not made to be called as house wife. If she will be given proper training like men then she can also contribute in this field.

When it comes to about women our country becomes so soft and became emotional for the women. Women are not fit for the army. NOT AT ALL. Many of you take this wrong.

But I am in the army I know what women do here firstly army duty is to provide security to the nation whereas in Indian army women officer need security For herself if she can't walk alone without buddy Then How would they defend the country.

Secondly, in the army, military training is compulsory for everyone for his own safety at least And these women don't how to fire they can't hold Weapon the because of the Heaviness. But they are expert in one thing how to do a party in officer mess, drink alcohol, smoking, sex with colleagues.

Military nurses don't have any relation to military drill and military operations and they are getting more MSP from soldiers why?

Have you Ever seen any para commando lady officer in India? Who comes out in republic day parade? NO.

Because they don't have guts.

They care about their beauty and skin maintenance. I am in army medical corps I have saw behaviour of nurses and doctors toward the patient. The patient is crying from pain but madam are busy in her gossips. No one shows sympathy for patients.

And lady doctors don't know anything. Bloody third class doctors.

And some people are here justifying the women.

You know compared to male officers women officer do more discrimination in the army. They treat soldiers as a servant and obviously this is India everyone listens to women so the helpless soldiers are not able to do anything.

I want to make many of you clear that in today's world no one joined armed forces for his country they are Used to be unemployed that why they Found defence last option. Because it is easy to enrol compared to other city services whoever it is male, or female and they are serving for the nation and giving their life because army rules are very strict. You have to do it or otherwise ready for punishment so obviously they do their duty and during duty, they got killed and media make them a hero. Government have Army so many powers. So army has authority to punish the defaulters and army person can't seek help from police or court. So army person uses to keep in fear because they are not educated enough to fight for their right.

So take this out of your minds the era has changed So the women have changed.
