Hello to all

According to many women, the problems are evident at the training level itself. The treatment meted out to men and women cadets are conspicuously different, with women getting "softer treatment".
On the other hand, their male counterparts are of the view that considering the fact that it's only been 14-15 years since women were inducted into the armed forces, it will take time for men and women to get used to each other. "I think the military is doing fairly well. These are initial teething troubles. Suddenly, one incident is being highlighted as an example to show that women are not treated well.

Thanks for reading
Have a nice day

    Perhaps some women fear for their personal safety? And being away from home for long periods of time. The possibility of dying in war, the ability to make more money in the civilian world and husbands or boy friends cheating on them, if/when they're deployed overseas or out of state.

    Just a thought

    I think it is very much like everything else in our modern society. In many relationships, women will try to wear the pants in the family, and when they actually get to wear them after driving their man (or society) crazy, they not only are miserable, they will destroy the relationship!
    The same goes for most feminist activity.....If men want to keep an organization stag....that is PC blasphamy....but let one man try to join a womens club or go to an all female school, all hell breaks loose.
