Describe the interconnections between gender and security.

Chapter 7 of the textbook gives an overview of the interconnections between gender and security, and chapter 8 focuses on Human Security, and there are two documents; One is an advertisement directed towards women during WW2. Another is a recent article about a Canadian soldier who fought in Afghanistan and observed that soldiers would get sexually aroused while fighting. What does this tell us about the nature of war and gender?
