    I feel both men and women should be required to perform service for their country in time of a draftable war. I don’t think either should be ‘required’ to enter combat, but the fact is, nearly 85% of all military jobs are non-combat (medical, truck drivers, postal workers, clerical, supply clerks, intelligence: all non-gendered). For feminists to argue that they should be able choose to fight is simply an example of wanting to have their cake and eat it too. Men don’t have the option. They can either go and fight, or they can be labled ‘draft dodging cowards.’ If they go, some female will most likely take their job and buy their house at an auction while he’s making $10,000 a year getting shot at. If women want the same rights as men (voting, holding office, freedom) they should have the same obligations. Freedom = responsibility. And all of the wah wah about having to stay at home with kids is just that. The guys are in the same position, and feminists find fairly convienient excuses for motherhood when it comes time to bite a bullet.
