Its true women have acheived skies but still they are some domains like Army, Navy and Airforce where women still are considered as weaker sex. In Private sectors many women are ruling the roost and people dont mind being under them. But these Govt. sectors specially armed forces they are many who come from conservative areas where women still are nothing but mere sex symbols and child producing machine so for them being ruled under woman is something that hurts their ego. Either a high ranking woman official is ostracised by her juniors who simply dont want to co-operate with her or she is sexually and mentally abused by her immediate peers who simply treat her as an object of fun or sexual desire because to get promotion or work done many senior officials or even the immediate colleagues want to exploit them. If the woman obliges then fine, otherwise she has to go through bouts of mental torture and depression. For the past 5 years we have found that maximum high ranking female officers have commited suicide not males. Why?

Do you mean to say that those women officers achieved good ranks and promotions have compromised with the superior male officers>??

I don't mean that. They are many women who have made their way despite all odds. But what I mean that for a woman a struggle is more to prove her mirth and they are many senior officials in armed forces who try to exploit a woman. I mean its not many times men also get exploited but those who are mentally ver-very strong come out of every circumstances and others commit suicide.
