0	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! Well the date I referenced was for the last time the US had a draft, so again I don't see your point. ETA: I see your point, it's been a few days and I forgot the article was referencing the Eukranian conflict. I'm not going to edit my post though for integrity's sake. I will add though that I did specify that I was talking about my country when I mentioned the draft.	/r/MensRights	23/05/24 04:17 PM

1	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! I'm glad you made those last few concessions. It's much more in line with how I actually feel. I do think that women have a minimal part to play in war, but are welcome if they choose in any role they can competently fill, but forcing women to birth would be pretty awful. Forcing men to go to war sucks, but at the end of the day the defense of our nation (which is the only reason I would really support a draft) is pretty damn important and at that point you might be forced to fight for your own …	/r/MensRights	23/05/24 03:18 AM
0	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! To be fair, the last time our army conscripted forces was December 7th 1972, so your point isn't exactly all that valid on May 20th, 2024, over 50 years later.	/r/MensRights	22/05/24 01:17 AM
1	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! Seems like a weird foot to put down. "If you won't go to war then I get to fuck you and make babies" probably won't go well. I think we'd be in an awfully poor state if we were forcing women to bear unwanted children in any capacity. I certainly see your point, and I agree that would be fair, but considering the fact that the last time we conscripted forces was Dec 7, 1972, it doesn't really make sense to have either of these conversations in the first place. For the record, women are actually q…	/r/MensRights	22/05/24 01:16 AM
1	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! I can certainly see your point, I just don't think that last part is a very helpful opinion to propagate. While I'm not saying women don't have a role to play in war and should just stay home, I just think they should have the option without the requirement. It's like telling a field mouse it has no choice but to fight a fox. The outcome is statistically very clear how well that would go down so it's no better than killing a field mouse yourself.	/r/MensRights	22/05/24 01:09 AM
1	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! Repopulating after the many deaths that come from war. Without people to produce goods, nations fall. If we went and bombed the piss out of China right now, not Nukes of course just for example carpet bombed all but 10% of the population away, there's a very small chance their neighbors don't invade. That much land mass requires a sizeable population to maintain and defend. Obviously that's an extreme example, but I don't have all of the statistics to give an accurate representation of what woul…	/r/MensRights	22/05/24 01:06 AM
1	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! Yup, I'm getting downvoted for it but my opinion is more a statement of fact based on biological differences and historical facts. Outside of a handful of conflicts, men do the fighting and women do the repopulating; for very good reasons. Equality is not the same as equity or fairness, or in this case common sense in my opinion...	/r/MensRights	22/05/24 01:03 AM
-3	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! Birthrates and dwindling populations don't care about feminism any more than they care about who is president or which party walks the path closest to God. Unfair or not, from a strictly biological standpoint men fight in the wars and women rebuild after. Obviously this is a hot take, but I stand by it from a biological standpoint. Emotionally I still don't want to see women in war, but I am glad they're being involved in some ways. Equality is cool, but there comes a point when the physiologica…	/r/MensRights	20/05/24 01:49 PM
-20	Men are dying on the battlefield but here's why that's a good thing! I actually disagree. The role women fill in wartime is after wartime when our population has diminished, their role is to have babies. Evolutionarily speaking a man can have unlimited* children at once while women can only bear one child. To be fair, that role is much more important during wars with heavy casualties, and the wars we fight these days have fewer and fewer casualties due to increased military precision, but historically speaking this has been true.	/r/MensRights	20/05/24 01:22 PM
