Women are already serving so there's no logic in not being eligible for the draft.
Ideally theyd be drafted into rear echelon roles. You know, where they're already serving.
Frontline combat or it's not equality.
There will never, ever be a day when 50% of the casualties in combat are women, or even close. The last Iraq was was around 3%. We're struggling to even pretend to be slightly fair here and require women to sign up for the draft, I guarantee society doesn't have the guts to force those women who are drafted to actually serve in roles as dangerous as men at the same rates as men, and I absolutely 100% guarantee society will never have the nerve to make pregnant women serve. Which means... any woman who doesn't want to serve can just get pregnant And then even get an abortion after a month or two, repeat as necessary. And that's assuming they can't get out of it by just failing a few physical tests that a man wouldn't get away with failing.
Any woman who doesn't want to serve will always have a way out, and the percentage of society who is even willing to admit that isn't 100% fair will always be miniscule.
Women are like those megacorps who get government bailouts. They have all the upsides, all the freedoms and rights, and none of the downsides, none of the restrictions or responsibilities.
And even conservative women are okay with this. None of them think it's important whatsoever to change that. Even if they might pay lip service to it if you ask them directly, they still never support anything that aims to change it.
Then why did Hillary Clinton tell us that women have always been the greatest victims of war? Checkmate, atheist.
They're not equal to the task.
Plenty of men serve in the rear echelon. The armed forces need people to do non combat tasks. Might as well use those who aren't suited to combat in the first place.
