Q1:

In the Franco-Dahomean War in the 1800s, many French soldiers hesitated before attacking the Dahomey Amazons, which led to the death 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?
