No they shouldn't.

Agreed women should be made to sign up if there is to be true equality, but it would be an absolute crap-show. The fact is SSS registration requirements have not changed since the last time it was used. It ignores women, so by extension married couples, which causes issues related to same-sex couples.
If the draft is instituted for both genders, do you draft both husband and wife if their numbers come up? Do you draft the wife if her husband is not signed up? It doesn't address single-parent households, or what would happen in a joint custody arrangement (or a sole custody arrangement). To be fair, it seems a significant portion of the 18-24 y/o female segment already have kids and no spouse Adding women to registration/draft is more of an issue of adding women; it opens up a MASSIVE can of worms related to families, marriage, and children and would completely change the culture of the US permanently following WW3. I also fully believe it would be the end of feminism and equal treatment of women, and not in a positive way (pendulum swinging too far and fast the other way). Depending on the laws there could be a whole generation of baby-booming draft-dodging babies and sham gay and straight marriages. It would be much more than just some young men escaping to Canada and burning draft cards, but a complete change and breakdown of American culture. The SSS is tracking on these issues and know there's no real good solution for anyone involved. |

If a draft is reinstated, it's almost certain that it would have to be gender-neutral. That doesn't mean that women would be sent into combat involuntarily. Other jobs would be found for them.

So what are they going to be drafted to do? I don't see them being put on the front lines to fight. Maybe work some hospital tents or something.
I don't think we should have a draft at all and if it got so bad that we have to start a draft. I would think we'd probably be seeing some canned sunshine. I guess this isn't an issue I care one way or another about. ETA: Now that I think about it. I think it's a waste of time drafting women.Are there going to be two different draft pools? One for men and one for women or one pool and if you're number is called then you go, man or woman? The latter sure isn't going to work. Men and women aren't equal sorry but that's just the way it is. I rather they allow able body 36 or 40+yr old guys that want to get back in the action to do so if it came down to having to draft |
