Social Issue – Isaac Mackan

My social issue is woman’s rights to join the military and play a role when there in combat.

This is a social issue because there are some woman that want to join the military but will not be let in because they are woman. People disagree by saying that woman are to weak and that they would risk the lives of men in a combat situation.

My proposed solution is if woman want to join the army and play a combat role let them because in the end if they are just as qualified as men for the job then they have every right to join. This the best solution because this gives woman a chance to serve there country in some eyes that’s their dream, also it can prevent riots or protest from breaking out just because the U.S. won’t allow women to be in combat.

Cons of letting woman play a combat role: In some societies or countries the enemy may be more willing to abuse women prisoners versus male prisoners, Military combat activities are more suited for men and women in integrated units have more of a risk to get injured, Men might act more foolishly then normal to save a woman in combat and put the whole unit at risk.

Pros of letting woman play a combat role: Widening the application pool for all jobs in the military will guarantee more willing recruits including women, In battle situations it shows that decision making skills are better then just brute strength in which women tend to make better decisions then men, Allowing women to serve in combat allows delicate and sensitive jobs to become easy.

Are my facts good or should i try and find different ones?

Does my evidence justify my argument?

  1. I think you chose a really good social issue. I agree that women should be able to go to combat and have the same rights as men.
