Since we haven't had a draft in 40 years - doubt we'd start now. But, yes, theoretically, there is no reason why girls shouldn't sign up for selective service. Although perhaps the child-bearing aspect of sending young girls off to fight and then not having anyone home to continue the species - but then I read WAY to many dystopic/sci-fi books.

Don’t quite understand your thinking. It takes two to continue the species - female AND male.

One man can impregnate hundreds. One woman can only have a small number of children.

Women have to have some skin in the game. Why should women be allowed to vote on sending just the men to fight and die?

When did we start having plebescites on the question of whether to send folks off to die in a foreign land? Dubya never asked gor my input.

People(women included) elected him and the congress authorized the use of force. So yes if you want to be excluded from the draft maybe you should take on a secondary citizenship and not be allowed to vote, elect representives or influence when the men of the country go to war. If a male does not want to be drafted, he runs to Canada, fills a non combat role(think combat medic) or goes to jail. If a women does not want to be drafted, there are no consequences? [/quote]
