Women serving in the military is a hot topic. Women serving on the front lines is very controversal. I'm not trying to argue against them in service but I am trying to explain the issues. The issue is NOT whether women can do the same work as men. The problem is two fold.

First-- Men have this desire to protect women. So if a woman is fighting with some men, the men may feel responsible for protecting the woman from harm. This may distract them from carrying out their mission. In combat, a soldier sometimes have to ignore the suffering of their comrades in order to complete their mission. Can a man ignore the suffering of a woman?

Second-- A group of men can function as a team of buddies when not distracted by the opposite sex. Add a woman to the equation and the men's focus is on the woman and this can break up their team cohesion.

Women were not allowed to serve in the military.ANSWER 2same as most wars, pretend to be a man - i imagine it does, or did, happen more than we know - women have a long history of serving in combat and can be every bit as capable as man and just dont like to be told they cant - my mom was one who served as a radio operater on B-17's to ferry the planes about and would have jumped at any chance to serve in combat if allowed
