Military Forces

The United States Army offers 93% of its jobs to female soldiers with the other 7% comprising of combat roles. The problem with this is that women still comprise of a very small percentage of military personnel. The Military within any country does indeed have a job to perform, though militaries similar to those of the U.S. Armed Forces are creating inequality by restricting certain jobs to female applicants that would otherwise qualify. Along with restricting some jobs, militaries also collectively engage in the same practices as society by objectifying women, most times unintentionally.
The willingness to be killed for a country does not come natural for a man or a woman, yet more men are willing to make the sacrifice by associating masculinity and aggressiveness unconsciously to who they are. This idea is one possible reason why females are restricted from some jobs and are far less incorporated with militaries. Another potential reason for the lack of women within militaries is by objectifying them, leading to possible sexual assaults. Two examples are from WWII using comfort women and more recently the tailhook scandal.
The United States military is sexually equal in terms of promotion rates and pay, though factors that lead to rewarding masculinity within the military create inequality between men and women.
