No. War and the military is inherently about killing people and women have not yet caught up to men in this arena.

Tell us all about Biden's military service.

His son Beau is a combat veteran who served honorably. He died of brain cancer that was likely caused by his overseas service. How many of Trump’s sons have served?!?!

Oh and yes. Maga girls can go too

I am a woman and am just as equal to a man. What health decisions do I not have that a man does?

Hegseth said we aren’t competent or capable, so no.

Anonymous wrote:Yes, women should have to register with selective service upon turning 18. But at present the question is does a woman who transitions to man need to register? Does a man who transitions to a woman get to unregister?

No and no, which is good because the military does not need that kind of drama during war. And women soldiers won't be forced to share bunk and shower space with a man.

Yes. Currently 16% of the Army is female. Women can and do serve.

The idea about physical requirements is just MAGA trying to flex and eliminate women. The Army already permits varying fitness abilities- even for combat specialties. The fitness charts vary by age. Somehow, old men are permitted to have lower fitness standards, but women can’t. So much for one fitness standard.

2 mile run. Male/combat passing score 60 points
Aged 17-21 19:57
Aged 42-46 22:04

Female noncombatant scale 66 points
Aged 17-21 22:01

Young females can perform as well as middle aged males. The “combat” scale has nothing to do with physical ability. The Army has no issue with older males being in combat despite their lower physical performance requirements.

The remaining requirements are similar

Deadlift males 60 points
Aged 17-21 150 lbs
Aged 32-36 140 lbs

Females 75 points
Aged 17-21 140 lbs

Sprint/drag/carry males 60 point
Aged 17-21

Aged

I bet Palantir has already thought about this. They will take away all the entry level jobs via AI and conscript our children. Girls and boys.

I have a son and I will walk his rear end across a border before I let him get drafted to support this facist piece of crap in the White House.

Exactly this—MAGAs already think all men who aren’t MAGA are trans and they don’t allow trans people in the military. So, MAGA only draft if one is needed.

I can’t wait to see all of the maga fake tough guys when they aren’t anonymously harassing women and children or getting abuse boners from the masked US Gestapo crimes.

We will have to issue shamwows to clean up the tears.

OP, are you familiar with Hegseth at all? He doesn’t think women are equal at all and, in fact, he’s been ending carers of numerous successful female leaders in the military. He doesn’t want women in the military.

My son has flat feet and he’s ADHD. Disqualifying? Phew!

1. Women should have to register for Selective Service
2. Women should be eligible for an involuntary draft
3. Only those who are fit to fight should be in frontline fighting positions; this applies to men & women, vast majority of young men do not qualify.

So much of war is about logistics, technology, services, data, etc. There’s no reason why women soldiers can’t contribute to the war effort in non-frontline positions.
