[quote=Anonymous]I think in general, feminists have always recognized that rigid gender roles constrain men as much as women.  See - http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/stellar/gloria-steinem-sides-with-former-enemy-to-produce-modern-feminist-doco-series/news-story/d60c33680f5d2c232b720766d7b77aa7

And also, feminists ARE addressing inequities experienced by men.  The societal impulse to throw away low SES men (because we view them as no more valuable than cannon fodder) will soon be an equal opportunity.  All combat jobs are now open to women and the Senate recently voted to start including women in the obligation to register for Selective Service.  If the legislation isn't reconciled with that attached, it is a near certainty that a Legal challenge would make the draft gender neutral.

As a feminist with a son and daughter, I worry about my kids being sent oof to war, but I acknowledge that both kids should have equal opportunities and equal responsibilities when it comes to their contributions to and defense of the country.[/quote]
