Modernity calls, times have changed. Don't fall back in the old biological arguments only when it suits you.

I mean, can anyone think of a reason why not??!?

Yeah

I don't want to lose my daughter to a senseless death, nor do I want her to be around men who have no respect for humanity.

So many things wrong with this statement. The military is why you live such a privileged pampered life here. Do you know how rampant wars were? These people sacrifice themselves to keep you and your family safe and you call them without humanity?

As for losing your daughter to a senseless death, I am sure all those families with sons really wanted their boys to be drafted. No one wants their children to go to war, when it happens it's a tragedy for all.

So basically it's ok to scream about equal wages (usually not equal work), and whinge and moan about air conditioning as a patriarchy tactic and what not. But when it comes to a true test of sacrifice and equality all bets are off. Hypocritical.

My dad was in the military. My nephew served. My father-in-law fought in Vietnam. We have friends who both served in the navy. I can love my family and friends, but I don't have to agree with their life choices. That's not hypocrisy; that's the ability to think critically.

I don't want my children (I have a son and a daughter.) to be placed in harm's way to fight any group willing die in the name of (Add your special god/cause here).

sorry - I love my kids more than I love this country.

Not hypocritical. Women already sacrifice when it comes to pregnancy, childbearing and childbirth. This is the sacrifice we make for humanity and for our country. Men don't do anything on this front besides stick it in.

Sure women can be drafted but in a real war, women will be at home. Someone has to have children and raise children. Only women can have babies. Men are physically unable to do so. And it only takes one man to impregnable hundreds of women.

Cool. A draft deferment because you can have babies (whether you actually choose to or not).

Would US territories be part of a draft? Puerto Rico? St. Thomas?

There will be no draft. There are enough people who did nothing in high school or were born into poverty and don't have any options so they sign up for a government job called the military.

What an ignorant generalization.

Tell me how it isn't so. Who, officers and a small minority aside, serves in the US military? What is the demographic - not the outliers - what is the predominant demographic? Prove to me that I'm ignorant.

Well, you have to basically pass an IQ test to get into the military, so that will weed out a lot of the really stupid folks. It's been estimated based on AFQT scores that the average IQ for enlisted is around 105; or better than 65% of the people in the US. Enlisted in the military aren't the dregs of society you seem to think they are; they're just average folks (above average actually) that happen to want to serve their country.

Thank you, pp. This is true. My son, college educated, decided to enlist after college. Why? He wanted to serve his country and by enlisting, he was able to choose the MOS he wanted. Had he gone in as an officer, that wouldn’t have happened. There are lots of others like him.

Education Level. The majority (83.2%) of officers have a Bachelor’s or higher degree. Few
enlisted members (6.5%) have a Bachelor’s degree or higher, while most (92.5%) have a high
school diploma and/or some college experience but less than a Bachelor’s degree.[b] Compared
to 1995, the percentage of total Active Duty members who have a Bachelor’s and/or an
advanced degree has decreased for officers (from 89.6% in 1995 to 83.2% in 2013), but has
increased for enlisted personnel (from 3.4% in 1995 to 6.5% in 2013).
