re: Should Women Be Eligible If Draft is Reinstated?

Have you ever forced a woman to do something she didn't want to do?

How long did it take for her to stop crying?

Did she bitch and whine the whole time?

Did she take pride in the task?

How many men are going to be put in more danger because see their little sister in these women?

A good man has inherent nature to protect. Even if it means his life.

Women are not men and men are not women, regardless of what they left says.

What is the point of drafting what you don't need?

Women in the military should only be in non-combat roles, they can't do the same things men do things have to be modified for them.

yep

There are plenty of roles in the military which women can perform just as well as men, which frees the men to perform the roles for which they are better suited.

If (for example) you need to draft 10% of HS grads (for whatever reason), it makes no sense to draft 20% of the boys (and put the burden on them) and zero percent of the girls ... especially if 50% of military needs can be met by females just as well as by males.

They may perform them as well as men, sure. But there’s other things to consider. There, such as how will it affect things when she’s all of a sudden pregnant when her unit is about to deploy.

yes they "should"

but it scares the living hell out of me to see morons like my niece and her friends who cant seem to handle the stress of getting and keeping a job, would ever be near the controls of armored vehicles equipt with weapons of terrible destruction and power

I used to think like this. Until I see people with no repercussions voting for others to do the dirty work.

If the poor paid and the women fought, there would be paying and fighting.

In a just Christian society women would be exempted from the draft. They would also have the highest calling of being good wives and mothers so they wouldn’t be competing with men for jobs and education.

The key word is compete. In a just Christian society, men and women work their hardest for their families and the common good. If this means women win the spots at university and are best qualified for jobs, they get them. When these highly capable women become pregnant, society supports their reproduction as a future boon to their ranks. If their husband is as highly qualified, they have no problem hiring needed help. If the man is not as qualified, perhaps his Christian duty is to stay home, raise his children, and help others when he can. I want the best physician/attorney/plumber, etc., not the best male physician/attorney/plumber. Sorry competition from women is so tough, you have to wish your competitors, and future Marie Curies, into a kitchen.

And, no, women shouldn’t be drafted. That’s how you get a bunch of unplanned pregnancies during a time of crisis.
