Should women be in frontline combat? This has been a very heated controversy for a long time, and now with the need for troops rising; it has become even hotter. Some believe that women should not be in frontline because they are incapable or less capable of performing the tasks that they need to perform. The opposing side believes women are capable of performing them just as well as men. So, I pose this question again: Should women be in frontline combat?
A woman's place isn't to be in the military in the first place, their role is in the home taking care of children.
When America sends young women off to war the are sending them, kissing there toddlers goodbye to go and drive a truck. This is like saying that now we believe children aren't important anymore. A man can fill any job in the military, but the role of a mother can not be replaced.......
