In the Franco-Dahomean War in the 1800s, many French soldiers hesitated before attacking the Dahomey Amazons, which led to the d
eath of a large number of French troops. This hesitation may have been due to cultural beliefs about men fighting women. What is your belief about this? How does it apply to current political debates about women serving in the front of ongoing wars?
I believe that even if the French soldiers hesitated that there was no reason to. Those women were intent on killing them, they had a right to defend themselves. If your life is in danger you ought to defend yourself. It applies to the fact that women are perfectly able to defend themselves, and inflict damage as well.
