Women are not fit for Defense Services

In my opinion women are not completely fit for defense forces, till today's date there are no women who is commissioned in infantry because infantry holds physical and operational move higher than other supporting arms so mentally and physically women can't continue a service in actual defense, in my opinion they are fit for supporting corps like medical side education side in all supporting arms side etc.

When we talk about women in army, the main problem arise is of physical power, in this context we only see belong to cities not from villages. In villages they get early in the morning, going to field, bring fodder on their head, in raj they are bringing water from long distance on sand dune where a common male cannot walk, they are doing harvesting work in field in sunny day. Female can be made physical robust by training, it is not a big deal.

A lot of people have debated this from the emotional point of view and I'll try to avoid that, but biologically women and men have same or at least similar lower body strength so running, jumping walls, etc are usually not a problem but when upper body strength is concerned men are stronger than women (as can be observed by the fact than men have broader shoulders and denser muscles), so carrying heavy rucksacks or weapons like LMG (though it is called light machine gun the only thing light about it is the name) and mortars, they also have been known on an average to be able to do less push ups and pull ups than men and are not able to perform as good as men in rope climbing, etc. Now, I have not stated any of these facts arbitrarily, the US Marines conducted a study on women and male Marines and found these facts, anyone who wants to cross check the fact can go read the report it is available to the public.

Yeah, women are fit for defense. But I think they should prove themselves amongst men as well. I mean there should not be any different types of recruitment for women. There should be only one type of recruitment process in which both of them and will participate regardless of their gender they prove their capabilities and get selected so at the end when they get selected they shouldn't say women have easy recruitment process so they get selected easy and aren't fit as men are. Likewise in defense service, no one should be discriminated against on the base of caste, gender. Only the capable humans should stand then and then only that particular defense force will have perfection.

Hello everyone, A very good evening to all of you.

This is Ajay kumar today my topic is women are not fit for defense services, I think in my point of view, it is absolutely wrong because as we all know that women has also ability to fight with the enemy and they also have a much strength as compared to the boys and they are also fearless in nature, by giving power this is also called as women empowerment.

Thank you.

In my opinion, women are fit for every service a man can do, But involving her really in defence sector is not good in my opinion.

There are various fields in which women are doing great but in defence when there is peace women are good but in war there are casualties and being a man I cannot see a women die for her country for our country, Its man's responsibility to protect his nation, although its up to her that she wants to fight for her country but still I don't like it.

A famous quote-.

"Battle get ugly when women are involved".

I didn't read all the discussions but I want to say that I know there are many disadvantages and unsafe for women in the armed forces like sexual harassment's and much more. But then also I want to say that we women are not afraid of anything and we can challenge any flied because women are equal to the boys. My father is also a retired air force personal and he also support my views.

It is our society who make them physically weak. If girls bring up as boys at home then she will do well in every field.

Mentally our society prepares them for banks, teaching line, companies etc. Give chance to them after giving equally education to them.

Hi.

Friends women's are doing better than men's in the field of sports, Olympic recently only women brought a medal for the country. Women rae very respectable in our society. We should respect them.

While we discuss women should be a part of Army or not then my answer is like this.

Friends as we know that in Army there is a Corps like Army education Corps, Army Medical, Corps, Signals Corps, Army Supply Corps etc where women's are proving herself best.

In combat roll like operation and fighting Corps like infantry, Armoured, ordinance where there is need of more physical and mentally tuff during war and operation women's are not fit and also not allowed.

Thanks.

I think women are fully fit in each & every role or position of life. . Like if she plays role of homemaker or working lady or businesses women or government employs or any other field. They works from his full dignity, and with full honesty.

If we give to chance them with full support & encouragement then they definitely prove herself in defence or any other field better then male power.
