Having been drafted in 1966, I am curious how the women of America will react if the draft is ever reinstated and they all have to register.

Liberal women will be shocked when their daughters have to march down to the Selective Service and register.

I can't answer for the women who enlist. Perhaps, women who enlist want to be on the front lines. Guess we will see how many women want a military career in the future knowing they will be groomed for front line combat.

My answer “Are you freakin’ INSANE!!???” wasn’t listed.

So, I just went with “No”.

Kinda boring.

If they are going to fill the bilets, then they should be forced - not just allowed - to serve them in combat.

Yes they will die. Having lower physical requirements insures that.

Absolutely that will be proper.
If thay can’t do the whole job, they don’t need to serve at all.

Same with men.

We don’t have a draft. They shose this. So be it.
