WASHINGTON — In the latest and perhaps decisive battle over the role of women in the military, Congress is embroiled in an increasingly intense debate over whether they should have to register for the draft when they turn 18.
On Tuesday, the Senate approved an expansive military policy bill that would for the first time require young women to register for the draft. The shift, while fiercely opposed by some conservative lawmakers and interest groups, had surprisingly broad support among Republican leaders and women in both parties.
The United States has not used the draft since 1973 during the Vietnam War. But the impact of such a shift, reflecting the evolving role of women in the armed services, would likely be profound.
Under the Senate bill passed on Tuesday, women turning 18 on or after Jan. 1, 2018, would be forced to register for Selective Service, as men must do now. Failure to register could result in the loss of various forms of federal aid, including Pell grants, a penalty that men already face. Because the policy would not apply to women who turned 18 before 2018, it would not affect current aid arrangements.

I'd rather have the draft age be changed to 21 so then we can subsequently change the voting age back to 21.

They just won't fight, how would you make them?

Who cares, not like it would ever happen.

If you look into it, most men on the front don't actually fight either. Very few actually have the nerve to go through with the whole shoot to kill thing.
Adam Williams
If they don't fight then they go to jail. How can they get out of it, you can't just say "No I don't want to fight!" To the draft.
>They'll get pregnant
Good then, majority of the population is still white, so that means more white babies.

Who knows - this could boast morale in the front line.

Military needs paper pushers, wrench turners, and pulse takers too.
Colton Ward
That's actually genius!

There's something wrong about this, why are they trying to weaken the army? >Female soldiers are a fucking liability
Oliver Perry
Jesus the amount of weak chins and weak features wtf
Eli Nelson
Then we can make them cook, or wash clothes, or carry out administrative duties. The military isn't all combat.
Luis White
one step closer

Wyatt Sanchez

Daniel Collins
they should at least have to register for the draft like men do
Cameron Lee
The Soviets drafted women to army brothels.
Jose Ramirez
>woman draft before equal physical standards
its a start I guess.
Parker Price
I'm okay with women being drafted so long as they're put into non-combat roles like logistics.
Gabriel Hernandez
I thought that was what german women were for?

Women can do all the menial work that men can't be bothered to do, and isn't worth investing trained men on, like driving trucks, pushing paper, scrubbing toilets, and so forth. There is no problem with forcing women into the military institution to do work, there IS a problem with them on the battlefield.

This kills the feminist
>Cry about wage gap(its bullshit but lets assume it is real) >Cry about having to be drafted
Just goes to show they want all of the rewards without any of the risk.

>female cadavers to molest

good, fuck women

The draft was terrible for the morale in Vietnam and draftees were worse than volunteer soldiers to the point of endangering them. It was the most criticized part of that war behind the war crimes.
Female soldiers on the other hand, they are usually underperforming, ineffective farces as we all know, but they are propped up by a propaganda machine.
The real question is which of these two narratives will win over, is draft bad, or is female GI good?
aside from this, i've been told by military guys that there are different kind of female soldiers, the most useless and irritating are the stronk womyn that join to prove a point, and the poor, ghetto trash that just wants to leech government money, while the few that are actually motivated and capable are rare. If the draft was in place they would snatch young women that weren't the lowest rabble possible.

unfortunately it will only affect underage whores turning 18 next year so all the feminists that should be fucking send to syria or other islam infested places will be safe. On the bright side it will force any 'feminist-to-be' to participate.
