The gender diversity and integration issue has been a long and difficult process. The Danish military is struggling with a very low female representation. Gender integration in the Danish military has followed a general trend found in many other Western militaries. Issues like women in combat roles, physical standards, and sexual harassment have been discussed and to a certain extent addressed in the Danish military organization. The Danish military has often paralleled the evolution of other major militaries, such as that of the US. Gender integration in the Danish military has not been able to match the level found in society - where Denmark ranks in the top echelon of nations with regard to balancing gender opportunities and representation throughout the workforce. Gender integration in the US military has also been a long and difficult process. The last decade has focused on the integration of women into combat roles. Political issues as well as political constraints have dominated this process.
