can girl become an active part of any country's army??

Having served 8 years in the US Army, as a woman, I can tell you that despite the change, there is still much progress to be made. I frequently saw women who were allowing what a civilian would see as harassment to occurr on a daily basis. If they were to speak up, then it would not be uncommon to be flagged as someone to watch out for, as someone their male counterparts would have to "watch their back" when around. I feel that women who enter this role should come prepared for a male dominated field, and if not able to accept "typical male behaviors" seek other options. I find it unrealistic to think that an environment where an army where the soldiers have to watch their words, can be a successful army. As to standing neck to neck, I completely believe that there are women in the world who can, and perhaps even surpass the men of their field. It is only essential that the women attempting to "keep up" are in a field which truly fits their strengths and personalities.

Women are an important party of the United States military. Just because you stereotype them doesn't mean they are that way. They are a wonderful assest to our nation and any nation who wishes to employ women in their armed forces.

I do feel that they can be a very active part in our countries army and many already have been or plan on doing so. There are a lot of women that are even tougher and stronger than some of us men. They should be commended for what they do for our country as well as the men.

I know a girl that is part of the army and she`s verry stron but she`s not charming at all... :|

i feel girls have what it takes to be in the army. yes they are delicate but with grooming aand training,they can be on par with their male counter-parts..

For sure, Women here in the Philippines play an active and important role in the Air force and Naval. Women can kick butt.

yes offcourse, why not ? if everygirl thoughts that i want to go for this destination then she will also go there.

I think that gender is not a basis for discrimination or rejection not only in the army, but anywhere in life. A woman is just as capable of defending the country as a man is. In Australia, I think there are certain limitations as to where a woman can be posted, however in my opinion, each officer should be given teh same treatment, and consideration, regardless of tehir gender. What do you think?

I think they are starting to integrate women into the United States Military. Not sure if they are eligible to be out on the actual batttlefield but I know there are women in the service and if they want to fight let them fight

yes why not... i feel girls are dedicated towards their work...

when they were able to rule the country,they r able to take decisions on defence,finance and in other fields, y cant they become an army chief...so girls can come forward to join army.

reading your question remain me of movie G.I Jane starred by demi moore. have you watched the movie? in my country more women join the force, especially as policewomen. i think i remember one or two women become general, not 4 star general. but its enough to tell you that women can be part of country's army

I work for the Police and get alot of respect from my Collegues for it..

i dont think so because, girl are not tough. they are easy to be a victim of anything as what u said just now. the girls should stay at home and feed their children. there are still many job they can apply which is more safe!

well myfriend just visit my same topic like you i start couple month a go "SHOULD WE NEED MILITARY WOMEN" maybe you can find answer there.

Yes! They can become an active part in our army. I hope they parents realise this & bring them up accordingly since childhood.

i think you are right

why not?? what u guys think abt we girls...

sure, girls also do very good in army, but some selected field only,

Hey,my frien, I read your theory,but as peer me,Girls can be the main part of the Army,as the also have the capability to do something for the NAtion,so, no one can say what Girls can do and can do,it's up to them,wht they have to deciide about it.
