GOP blocks provision to require women to register for draft

Women could theoretically be drafted and placed into their own combat units so they wouldn't cause the problems people say they would in co ed units, or they could be placed in positions in the military were they won't likely see combat. Obviously they should be subjected to that potentiality if they want the vote like men have, or better ban the draft for everyone.

Let it never be forgotten that conservatives are not our friends, no more than mainstream liberals. Practically speaking, of course, an actual draft is highly unlikely, this is largely symbolic I guess you could say. But I would much rather deal with the fattest, blue haired tumblr obsessed feminists than these tradcons. they are by far worse because, as we will probably see in this very thread even, men buy into that traditionalist bullshit.

Disgusting!!! If they can not be drafted they can not serve. A total ban on all females in the army is needed. Why should women eventually take up important military roles over men who have truly sacrificed for country.

Equality for all, responsibilities for some

Someone should post this to r feminism

You know there's an issue when conservatives are against gender equality. They realize it's not a woman's duty to fill in for a man's role. Femminist take notice. Men are expandable. Tell me again how the patriarchy is against you?

Fuck those legislators.

Welp. this will be yet another justification to dodge any draft in case it does happen.

Sexist pigs.

But but, I thought the GOP hated women!

Flair outrage

LancerKagato · 2016-05-17T22:16:44+00:00

another win for equal rights! (sarcasm obviously)

Why the fuck is this even a thing? I don't want women to have to register. I want no one to have to register.

I'm not even surprised. I was more shocked about the fact that someone had the guts to propose the opposite. As someone In the army, I'm kind of glad we don;t have the draft in Canada and above all the draft for women.holly shit that would actually we a real shit show.

Good.

Drafting women would:

Slow down the rate at which we could raise troops if there is a need for them, as less women would qualify (but would still need to be processed).
Cost the government more money taking care of women soldiers who wear out faster, reducing the money which could go to outfitting the military.
Ultimately get more men killed in the line of duty serving alongside sub-standard soldiers, as well as the effects of #1 and #2.

Yes, this is "bad for equality" but it's "good for men (who are serving or get drafted)". Which reddit are we on again?
