The glorious all-volunteer Soviet forces that selected that line of work because of the pay and perks?

Well, that and to repel someone else's occupation forces unless the defending side wants to commit to a long and nasty guerilla campaign. Not too likely in the US at the moment but still a fact of life elsewhere in the world.

where there is a permanent domestic military presence, and all americans will be forced to serve. I fear the same is coming for europe - that we will live in military states on constant terror alert. I share your fear for governments waving the fear of an unknown, marginal threat in front of everyone to justify taking away essential rights. However, if there is one kind of military that will be difficult to bend to implement totalitarian policies it's the one composed of conscripted citizens. Th…

Being against a religion doesn't make something illegal. IIRC Islam possibly Judaism forbid charging interest on loans (although for Jews it's only for loans to other Jews).

We have tried many times to have women in front line areas and it ends poorly in combat situations. This some "jobs" are just not suited well for certain types. Especially when you are talking about a role that requires massive physical ability. And this make for an interesting contrast. Of course some jobs are not suited well for certain types. For what it's worth less than half of all men are suited for infantry combat. I'd hazard a guess that at least 95% or all women are not physically suite…

Denmark has women in combat roles with unified standards. Women make up around 2% of Danish infantry units deployed to Afghanistan and the feedback hasn't been bad. Women aren't better than men but they aren't really worse either assuming they pass muster. Sure the culture is a bit different from the prevalent culture in US armed forces but that's just a matter of time.

I think what /u/DavidByron2 is saying is that as only about 15% of an age group are conscripted in Norway, the selection will tend towards men. If we look at statistics from Denmark, a choice based mostly on willingness and physical ability would have about 2-4% of women in the infantry. The overall fraction will likely be higher because of lower demands in the support positions but I'd be surprised if it was over 20%.

In the Nordic countries (I'm from Finland myself) the approach is somewhat different. There's no magical sexual maturity fairy that waves a magic wand on their 16th birthday, but rather 16 is the guideline for age of consent with room for case by case interpretation by the courts. Not only is there the possible defense of a person appearing older than they are but it's also possible (although somewhat unlikely) that a court could find that a 13 year old is physically and mentally mature enough t…

There has to be some sort of return of investment though, if people are only in for a year, then how much time is left after they've done their training? Army training in the UK is 14 weeks I believe, so thats more than 1/4 of the time. What do you want a military for? If you want to aggressively use it, conscription for a year or two is a bad idea. Good examples would be Soviet Union in Afghanistan and the US in Vietnam. If you want to have a large reserve to defend your country against or dete…

Not everyone does. However, having it in you or not having it in you isn't a gendered thing. It's weakly gendered in the sense that I think it likely that a larger percentage of men have it in them than do women. This is of course no reason to have only men be subject to the draft. To argue otherwise is just another example of cherry-picking feminism where equal rights aren't matched by equal responsibilities.

I'd somewhat disagree about the world wars but yes, most of the wars you've fought more recently have been through your own choice. I'm from a country that had less choice in that department in the 20th century and that still upholds conscription. In fact, today some 12k young men begin their service.

Typically only one side of any given conflict chooses to be in it. The other side has it forced on it.

The mechanism doesn't work the way that 40% of babies won't be born. The people having unwanted babies might have at a later point wanted to have a baby but decided to forego that as they already had one (or several). Yeah it'll be a hit on the birth rates in the short term but probably not so much in the medium term.

In related news the first feminist cries out that the new pronoun obscures the female gender (google translate link). I speak Finnish as first language and that doesn't separate genders in the third person noun and I think nongendered nouns are a great idea.

In western society women can easily think of themselves as being in a position of safety even while being verbally abusive. Men are rid of any illusions in that regard by the time they reach puberty. This, of course, by the virtue of having the snot beat out of them a couple of times. If men were to find themselves in a similar position of safety, they would probably be considerably more verbally abusive as well.

That's restrictive gun laws for you. Only the criminals have guns and even they won't use them readily for the fear of having to get rid of the dearly purchased gun.

Lots of interesting facts men are overrepresented as victims in all age groups except pre-teens and over 75s women are more often strangled to death, men beaten 45% of women are killed by a partner or ex-partner compared to around 5% men are typically killed by strangers or known non-family members

I also know that it's nowhere near 100% of the age group anymore either, but it sure as hell beats the 100/0 conscription currently in place over here in Finland.

Had to downvote you for a logic flaw. Why and how have you all allowed your country to get to this point? Why and how would it be particularly the men who allow the country to get somewhere. In a truly equal country (which Norway pretty much is) both men and women would have contributed equally to such a decision. Surely the representatives of both interest groups might try to slip in a few suggestions here and there. In the end, however, the people as a whole decide irrespective of gender. Men …

In the minds of these campus feminists you can only speak in their space, using their language, and by their rules. Where have we heard this before? Not to mock your rhetorical question or anything but where? I don't understand the reference.

It's typical in universities. In Finland universities have two sets of pay scales: teaching & research and support services. All jobs are put on a certain level at either the one or the other scale.

If the article isn't satire I don't know what is. This, if anything is Poe's law in practice. I particularly like the allusions that women vote for the "good" parties and men vote for the "bad" parties.

By the same logic it is also silly to be proud of being gay, straight or any of a number things that are outside your own control. However, when someone else tells you you should be ashamed of what you are, a pride movement is a logical step. The idea behind a pride movement is that people should able to enjoy and appreciate what they are without shaming from others. TBH I'm talking out of my ass here. I have never even read the wikipedia page on pride movements so I have no idea what the offici…

Tats and other body mods were probably the way to display membership in rival tribes at the time. Makes sense to ban them so you can't be a member in several.

Aren't they? You can change T-shirts. The whole idea of circumcision is that it's irreversible proof of membership in a group whose custom it is to circumcise male members (no pun intended). That's what it was originally for Judaism. No health benefits and very unlikely any hygiene benefits compared to the risks involved in performing the operating it in primitive settings. People do some really strange shit to belong to a group. Some go to church every Sunday and others pay GOP membership dues.…

I'd say it's the desire to have your offspring be like yourself. Being cut or uncut is something you're reminded of several times a day and it grows up as being a part of who you are. When you have children you obviously expect and want them to be like you in most respects. Cut men can't make themselves uncut but they can have their sons circumcised. Add to this the fact that it's deemed an acceptable choice and you have the current situation in the US.

Typical party youth discussion piece in the Nordic countries. The only way for people in the youth wings of established parties to gather followers is to make absolutely ridiculous statements so that the media will cover them and they will have face and name recognition in the upcoming elections. ...or so I hope. I'm not from Sweden so I'm not 100% certain this is what the article is.

I'm from Finland where the system works exactly like said above. Women were given the right to voluntarily participate in military service as an equality measure. Norway recently took their similar approach a step further and extended service obligation to women. Baby steps, baby steps.

How about everyone either gets drafted or put into an Ameircorps-like program? I'm from Finland where exactly this is the case. Women can opt in to serve voluntarily and for men it's compulsory. A majority of the population is in support of national defense by means of conscription but it'd be political suicide for someone to demand equality in this particular thing. Interestingly Finland ranked #2 in the 2013 global gender cap rankings. #3 Norway recently voted to extend conscription to both ge…

Out of sheer curiousity: what other reasons would there be for that particular practice? Personally I can't see any other reason other than to ensure that the women are under "guard" at all times. If we're speaking about the same cultures then a five year old son will do as a chaperone so the mother will quite likely be responsible about everything other than who she spends time with.

The need to maintain a large enough military for some particular purpose. Finland, for instance has a conscript military with a core cadre of career officers and NCOs. Russia is the same with a larger hired cadre. Russia is the reason Finland needs a conscript army with a potential size of ~7% of their population. Or at least that's what I was told when I "had the priviledge" of serving for a year there after high school.

I hate it when for example, a woman expects a man to pay for a first date, and the argument is made "YOU FEMINISTS WANT TO BE TREATED EQUAL THAN YOU HAVE TO ACT EQUAL." I have a problem with this approach. It somehow assumes that the woman is responsible for deciding whether or not the date should go according to the new rules or the old ones based on what she feels like at the moment. It's the 21st century and women are pretty damn equal (at least where I come from). Go with the new rules unles…
