In reply to Sofia. So didn’t the above essay do quite the opposite, after affirming that women lack the physical strength, why did it go around and exemplify the opposite. Also can you help with the concession statement.

Hi, why the issue is neutral? it asks ‘is it right’? you shouldn’t pick up a side? Thank you so much

Hy Chris, is it ok to have words limit exceeded by a number of 40 to 50 words?

Hi there, ‘this essay will discuss’ is fine if it is a discussion type essay and the opinion is clearly stated.
No, they shouldn’t be neutral. If their opinion is asked for, they should come down clearly on one side or the other. So, if they think it is right to be excluded, give two reasons why, if it is wrong, two reasons why not.

Hello Chris, thank you for this example. I have a question regarding the first paragraph, the 3rd sentence where you stated this essay will discuss… , I thought those are some of the things that you stated are unnecessary in your video. Another question I have is will a candidate get a good score for being neutral, I thought the correct thing is to state whether it is right or not right for people to be excluded from jobs based on gender?

Can I attempt the question like this?
My stand: It is not right to avoid men or women from certain work\
Reason 1: All humans have the rights to try any occupations as long as they are responsible for their action.
Reason 2: People should be judged by their capabilities and not by the nature of their gender.
