Throughout history, male leaders have led us into violence and conflict. If a society is governed by female leaders, it will be more peaceful. Do you agree or disagree?

#history #leaders #violence #conflict #society
It is generally believed that
men
 are violent and have started many wars, and
women
 would be better, more peaceful
leaders
. So from my standpoint,
women
 would perform well in their leadership because they are not as vicious as
men
. There is no denying that if females take a high position, there will be significant changes in the ruling system in a country or even in our society.
Nonetheless
, not many sources have backed
this
 up. The most frequently cited rationale for opposing
this
 statement is a range of past examples of female leadership.
This
 argument rests on the fact that few peaceful
women
leaders
 were presented throughout history. A good illustration of
this
 is Cleopatra - the Egyptian queen, who was notorious for provoking and escalating the War of Actium, one of the most terrible wars in 32BC, caused by conflicts about dominance between the queen and her brother.
On the other hand
, males are much more likely to have a wild nature.
This
 is because they are easily influenced by nature and society to be more brutal.
For instance
, boys were raised from a young age, in which they are taught to be tough, not to compromise, and not to back down.
As a result
, boys grow up to be more forceful and aggressive in daily life, which is
also
 true when they become
leaders
. Meanwhile,
women
 are more gentle and are not willing to hurt someone's feelings.
In other words
,
men
 are innately associated with aggression and
women
 are more merciful.
Accordingly
, if
women
 run a country, they can avoid violence and conflicts.
For example
, several governments,
such
 as New Zealand and Croatia, have been running with female
leaders
 for an extended period. Unsurprisingly, these years remain the most peaceful in the modern history of these countries. Ultimately, thanks to the naturally violent instinct of
men
,
women
 will be offered more powerful positions to rule widely.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
