Oh well then that was my mistake. I misinterpreted your post from the get go.

My apologies.

No. Obviously a draft is garbage to begin with, but even then, I think no.
I feel terrorizing only half the nation with the possibility of being personally drafted is better than terrorizing all of it. Yes, this will be worse for men as a group, but, meh.

I mean granted, but I still dont think its fair to blame it entirely on men, when a woman helped pass it.

(And yes I use the word chick. Sorry if that offends you but Im not changing.)

It's honestly 98% the fault of old men. Let's be real. And no, I'm not offended. Not sure why you would make that assumption.

Like it's basically then going "Why don't women have to get themselves killed?" instead of wanting no one to get themselves killed. It's unnecessarily spiteful.

It has nothing to do with spite, or equality even. Physical ability aside, Man are simply far more disposal by nature. That's how it's always been.

And frankly I'm a little shocked at how many people don't know this. If most man are killed, a society can still recover, but that's not the case for the opposite.

And in situations that bad, you're pretty much in as hopeless a predicaments as Japan, and Germany was near the end of WW2.

'Modern values' have really only been a thing the past century or so. And doesn't reflect the tens of thousands of years humanity have constantly ward for land, resources, wealth or power.

What I said wasn't a product of society or the goverments opinion and values but the laws of nature and biology.

And while we can ignore, or even defy it to a degree in modern day, when push comes to shove, we are as enslaved to it as any other animal.

There is no chance of a draft coming back.

Obviously there shouldn't be a draft at all but removing it is plain less likely than simply adding women to the draft. >_>

No. Men are the ones who start the wars in the first place. You deal with it.

Women have registered and voted at higher rates than men in every presidential election since 1980, with the turnout gap between women and men growing slightly larger with each successive presidential election.

Women vote more often than men, stop electing corporate warmongers tbh. >_>

"You've just been drafted. Tiny Miniskirt Division."

Domestic animals evolved alongside humans over the course of thousands of years and become codependent like dogs, or less so cats who despite that are among the most successful predators still. This optimism is how tigers, bears, alligator, or snake owners end up dead.

Hell the only known cases of whales killing human were ones taken from the wild and forcefully Domesticated.

But why do those people care so much about Wealth? Maybe it has something to do with a base, or instinctual desire of ours to accumulate resources(wealth) which helps compete and achieve dominance. Which aren't unlike animals who so the same.

I haven't heard of Thin woman having more trouble at child birth so I won't go there. But the ideal figure as always been of woman in good looks, youth, and shape, and man the same for procreation, this hasn't changed. And why obesity will never be the ideal figure for most people. Barring some people's preferences of course.

Despite how hard mainstream media attempts to push it. If you watch enough shows, games and especially anime, it reflects this.

That pic is some disingenuous bullshit. Serving in the military is not and should not be anyone's responsibility unless they volunteer for it.

no. if she wants to join, then let her. if she doesn't want it, then no. Just my opinion...

That said, a draft is totally feasible if the US's very existence was at jeopardy. Like an invasion with a country with similar technology and similar resources. Then again, if it came down to that, it will more than likely end up nuclear. God forbid.

You think theyre gonna keep going with more stuff after Roe/Wade? Cant somebody do something to stop them?

Nobody should be drafted, ever, for any reason.

If you don't like that men can be forced into a draft, there are two paths.

1. Make it so no one is forced into a draft

2. Make it so women are also forced into a draft.

If you're going for number 2, you don't actually care about men being treated as disposable.
