re: Ukraine conscripting women. How will that go?

---

Starting Oct. 1, women with a medical or pharmaceutical background will have to register for military service, however – unlike men between the ages of 18 and 60 – they won’t be restricted from leaving Ukraine unless they’re mobilized.


Youtube Channel: They're calling in women to fight!

Women in certain professions were already eligible for military conscription, according to earlier legislation. However, the recent revision of the law regulating Ukraine's military reserves dramatically expanded the number of professions that qualify for mandatory registration with the armed forces. Now women who are librarians, journalists, musicians, veterinarians, and psychologists -- among many other varied professions -- are required to register for possible military service.
This is from 2021

The conscription / registration goes far beyond what you're saying.

ETA - forgot to add - the concern here is that Ukraine is expanding the conscription and registration, so they are hurting for personnel. If the original stuff from back in 2021 was sufficient, they would not be expanding anything. This will mean that the women end up getting closer to the front lines, and some will get hurt or killed. So the question here is about how that will affect things.

I mean they prob will get killed and or raped.

Check on Israel. They have been having women in their fighting military for decades.

For completely different reasons.

The Israelis don’t use women in combat roles or in positions that would endanger them.

Equal rights.
