Some people believe that women should be treated as equal to men when applying for a job with the police or military. Others think women are less suitable for these kinds of jobs. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

Being denied participation in the armed

forces

is to

women

what being denied the right to pick nursing is to men. At issue is whether

women

should be allowed to sign up for the police or the military duties, the complex nature of which necessitates more accurate scrutiny of the case. On the one hand, it is unrealistically believed that the armed

forces

are not suitable places for

women

.

This

questionable assumption claims that females are biologically different from men;

therefore

, they are not compatible with the needs of combat duties. One reason given for

this

is their life and health would be at risk. By way of illustration, carrying heavy weights, they may suffer permanent physical damage. Set against

this

is the view that the feeling of being excluded can lead to a sense of frustration for the female gender. It is sometimes countered by the notion that the experience of coming face to face with the enemy may be much more hideous, which is the

scenario;

women

can receive special training for more decent roles in the police and army. Clearly, the reality still remains that the female presence on duty and in uniform is too important to be brushed aside like that. Another way of looking at female employment in the armed

forces

is that they should be allowed to join the police and / or military

forces

like men. The salient point to note here is that judgement needs to be made based on their capability, rather than gender. Just because

women

would be more likely to suffer from the physical and psychological impacts does not mean that they cannot be efficient in other branches of the armed

forces

such

as the logistic and engineering support teams of the unit they are in. The contrasting view is that in

this

way the effectiveness of a unit could be compromised;

however

, there are many areas in the armed

where

can fulfil their duties

as well as

, if not better than, their male counterparts. Evidently, it is true to say that valour knows no gender, but when making career choices in the army,

need to remember that discretion is the better part of valour. Aggressive and inappropriate as life in the armed

is like a man being denied the right to pick nursing as a job,
