SISTERS IN WAR

In the article "SISTERS IN WAR" James Dao talks about how the rights for females to join the Army and Navy has expanded. The article also talked about how women rights has expanded over the past years.

In the article it had stated "Military officials say that more than 200,000 jobs could now open to women, including in elite Special Operations commando units like the Navy SEALs and Delta Force." Another example that was stated in the article was that if women wanted to join combat they wasn't going to lower their standards for women to enter but the army has. Th article had stated, "The Army, for example, currently allows women to pass their physical fitness tests with fewer push-ups and a slower two mile run than men." The last example that was stated from the article was, " A nationwide Quinnipiac University poll conducted a year ago found that three quarters of those surveyed favored allowing women to serve in units that engage in close combat."

I think that women deserve the right to join the army and navy because I feels as anything a men can do a female can do even better. I think that these women can handle a family and also be in the serving for our country. I think that the people that think women cant do something like be in the army without lowering the standards for them is very close minded and they are some haters because I'm pretty sure that a women can do a hundreds push-ups better then any men and maybe even faster that any men. I think that women does a better job at serving our country because females are very protects.

This reminds me of a time when my dad thought I couldn't ride a dirtybike because I was a girl and he thought I wouldnt be able to turn the gears because they are very hard to turn without gloves on and also because he thought I cant ride one. But I could and when we all had went out the airport to ride I was the first on the bike and gone. Not only did I know how to ride the dirtbike but I could work the gears better then all the boys out there. But it was the day I proved to my dad and everybody else wrong that I could do something better than them. I also was invited to ride with the boys who had the 4 wheelers out that day. So this shows that female can do want ever they put their mind to.
