I heard women in israel do that^

I heard Israel gets billions of $'s worth of military equipment from US every year.

I heard Israelis lie a lot

both of them are true ^

All 3 are true.

Great idea. Arm and train the women of villages so they can protect themselves, never-mind the fact that the men of the village would be better fitted to protect. And great idea number 2, arm every village in artsakh with large supplie of ak-47 and ammunition. You're a genius.

Think before you write something. There were no men left, because they were killed, or were somewhere else at that moment, where, ever, did I say women must replace men? Is this your tactic to argument why you are against the military training of women. Discussing on something which you yourself created?

Example;

I: "I am of the opinion that we need more tanks".
You: "That's a stupid idea, you want to get rid of our airplanes? Even though you didn't mention even one word about airplanes, I AM AGAINST GETTING RID OF OUR AIRPLANES! What a stupid idea, I don't understand why you want more tanks. So the airplanes can sit down and watch how the tanks fly"

Anyway, I do not want to force women into the army, but make it free, non-compulsory service, promote it and do this in a professional way. I am of the opinion this would serve our country and society and would bring the people closer together. Not every women wants to be married to a dictator like you, staying home all day raising your children, some feel they can do more for their country. Who are you to deprive them the right. Or are you afraid that your wife would prefer to be in the army more than being with you?

If all the men were killed then what chance would women have of protecting themselves without any military training except for being able to shoot an ak when the advancing enemy army will be bombarding them with heavy artillery? There are practical things that money should be spent on then there are idiotic ideas that people should stay away from. Arming of women in villages is one of those idiotic ideas.

Nice strawman argument, but women aren't tanks (they have boobs and vag!nas), and men aren't airplanes. Tanks can be as useful as airplanes, whereas, women cannot be as useful as men.

Sorry, all or nothing. Spending money on attempting to recruit women into the army will be a wast of time and money. Unless women are drafted there will never be enough women in the army to amount to anything. Try to take away the draft in Armenia and see how many people will join the army of free will in piece time.

I am of the opinion this would serve our country and society and would bring the people closer together.

And I am of the opinion that it would be a gigantic wast of resources that will accomplish nothing but please outside idiots who judge a country based on how many women are in specific positions.

Not every women wants to be married to a dictator like you, staying home all day raising your children, some feel they can do more for their country.

Some, maybe (1%), but most would be the happiest being married to a wealthy man and not doing anything useful. If you think most women have the same ambitions as men then you are sadly mistaken.

A woman's main ambition is to snatch a wealthy/well-off man if at all possible, and if not, at least someone who will cater to most of her whims. Women always have the option to marry up and have hubby support her, men don't have that option. Just look at the content of most women's magazines, if looked at objectively, they would be considered journals for overgrown pampered spoiled brats, but political correctness forces us to call them women.

Giving such liberation to women will do a lot of harm to the structure of Armenian family and thus Armenian society. Diasporan girls, most of the them at least, have been empowered with the concept of radical feminism preached by western culture which in turn has led them to assimlate, humiliate armenian reputation, and more worse things..

I disagree with the first part and I agree with the second part: Armenia only has 3 million people, so you need women to be more involved in the political well-being of your country. They can do a great job. (Even women in Iran help in the military.) On the second point: There is nothing wrong with women getting equal respect in the work force etc. - but I do agree with you that "radical feminism" (emphasis on the word radical) is very dangerous: it tends to be anti-family, pro-political-instability, and is often used by foreign governments to try to destabilize and undermine other nations. It's a very delicate balance: Governments need to be fair to women but also inform them of the serious risks of military psy-ops.

Re: Armenian women: should play a bigger role in our economy, politics and military.

Liberated women threaten in assimilation and because of that attract people like the Persian hooligans to fill up Yerevan.

@ MOS: Jesus Christ: The thread is about Armenian women helping the Armenian military, and now you're back to writing about "Persian hooligans"? Where are these Persian Hooligans? Under your bed? Persians put $3.5 million dollars PER DAY into Armenia's economy -- many, like Parskahyes, have family in Yerevan. For centuries we have worked side-by-side -- stop trying to cause harm to Armenia-&-Iran. If you spent 10% of your time on pro-Armenian causes, you would have 150 posts on here to show for it. Use your energy to help your people.

Re: Armenian women: should play a bigger role in our economy, politics and military.

@ Persepolis, stop quoting my more than year old posts.

Yes there are Persian Hooligans, like there are hooligans in every other country. There are respectful Persian tourists that visit Armenia, but there are also a minority that are not respectful and take advantage of the freer environment of Armenia. Such hooligans need to be kept out of the country, and in my opinion for this border security needs to be increased.
