Ummmm...that a good one!!! Especially since there has been a lot of chatter in Washington about bringing back the draft due to lack of volunteers for the services. I am a female, also an Army veteran. I totally support women being able to serve in non combat roles but personally experiencing the indifference and lack of respect a lot of women are given while serving in one of the services would definitely say no. Unless you've been in there are long as I was and found out first hand how different they treat women - don't volunteer every other woman. I hate to say it but it is just like civil rights for ethnic races went so far and then have come to a big slowdown. I am proud of my service, proud of my country but not proud that women are NOT treated as an equal in the military.

Xynthan, One would not sign in for the draft, one sign up's for the draft. that's so the government is regular with (theoretically) the numbers of adult males available if our united states had to institute the draft. you could not sign up, with the aid of fact rules have on no account been replaced to permit the U. S. to forcibly enter women into the militia. as long with the aid of fact the regulation prohibits this, you at the instant are not eligible to sign up with the aid of fact which you're woman. that's super which you have such patriotism, and it may seem to me that now's the time which you would be able to help our militia, and besides the shown fact which you won't be able to be compelled to connect, you're able to desire to surely voluntarily connect between diverse branches now. Barring this, what may be the factor of you registering for the draft, in case you at the instant are not prepared to volunteer for armed provider as we talk? in case you do not consider the present conflict and are unwilling to connect now because of this, what's to declare you're able to consider a destiny conflict the place you have been "registered" to draft and have been given observed as up for militia accountability? good luck

Honestly if feminists succeed in building the society they've been pushing for then women will be drafted in equal numbers to men one day.

There is no draft.
That answers your question.
If there were one, to add to our slavery already being suffered, females would probably be on the list too.

Because we have the babies, and men should have to do something for crying out loud!
