Woman have always had to cloak themselves in a masquerade of sorts to serve alongside men. When woman were finally accepted into the military, they were given secondary roles to the men. The Pentagon has just recently began to realize that gender really do not matter on the battlefield. Since the Pentagons enlightenment, one can now see progress in the integration of women in all expanding military careers. Women have always proven that they are not only an asset to the military but they are the strength of the America’s military.

Women now make up 14 percent of the active-duty military in the United States, which is up from 1.6 percent, 25 years prior. (Christian Science Monitor, 1). In 1948, President Truman signed the Women 's Armed Services Integration Act which created the role of women in the military. This law meant that each branch of the service was allowed to have one female Colonel (Byfield, 12). As of 2015, there are many women who serve as Generals and Admirals. All of these roles are non-combative. Even though some women can do anything a man can do, the vast majority can not, therefore making it an unsafe idea to place these women into combat positions.

Women were not allowed to fight in the war. Women mainly supported the war as nurses. So many women are proving that they can do just as well as a man can in any situation, adventure or job. Women are now able to fight in combat side by side with their male comrades. This is especially true in our military.

In Molly M. Ginty’s article “Military Women: All Guts, No Glory” she explores the issue of women who serve in the army and them being included in combat with males, and the inequality they have been through serving in the U.S Armed Forces over numerous years. With new legislating, and there being new roles for females there is always going to be the debate if women should be in combat with men or not. For years’ women who would join the army were just nurses and secretaries, because of people thinking that they are not fit to be in battle. Even though they all go through the same training, the women were put in position to practically serve those who were in battle which were the men. So personally I do agree with women being able to serve

Did you know that women were banned from serving in combat in 1994? It wasn’t until 2013 when the Secretary of Defense removed the military’s ban on women serving in combat. Leon Panetta said “anyone qualified should get a chance to fight on the front lines of war regardless of their sex.” But why were they banned in the first place?

Ninety percent of all military occupations in the military include all genders, but the top ten percent of roles are excluded to women. Women have already felt the misogyny with unequal pay and unfair treatment by men, now women have to face the discrimination for fighting for our country. Women should be able to serve in the front lines because it makes the military stronger as a whole with more diversity, women in other countries fight on the front lines and women have made significant contributions in the military so far.

Since ancient times, families have parted with their fathers or sons as they went off to war. In some instances, they went as volunteers and in others it wasn’t a choice, but rather a necessity. Generations before mine wouldn’t dream of sending their daughter alongside their son into the front lines, not because women were incapable of the task required of them, but it just wasn’t done. Women used to be viewed as fragile and proper and some people still see women in that way. In past years, the most women were seen fit to do during war time was helping on the home front. But, what’s happening now? Women are fighting, not on the front lines, but in the background and not for their country, but for themselves. Women today are fighting the battle for equality. They reached a milestone in this battle years ago when they reserved the right to vote, but it continues today in a way that even some women don’t want it to.

The difference between men and women is women are physically weaker, they have vital personal needs, and they attract male troops.
