There are inherent differences between men and women.
There’s no room for discussion on this one. It’s fact.
It’s why I call my dad, boyfriend, and brother when I’m moving… and not my sorority sisters.
It’s why Hannah does my HAIR every time we get together.
Dear p*ssy hat wearers… Who do you call when you need a washing machine moved up five flights of stairs? Just curious.
Anyway… you wanted equality? YOU GOT EQUALITY.
REJOICE. Y’ALL MIGHT GET DRAFTED.
According to the Washington Times:
The Pentagon says the country should stick with mandatory registration for a military draft, and it advocates a requirement for women to sign up for the first time in the nation’s history.
The recommendations are contained in a Defense Department report to Congress that serves as a starting point for a commission examining military, national and public service.
Congress ordered the Pentagon report, and the office of the undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness completed it in the early months of the Trump administration.
Currently, only male citizens and residents age 18-25 are required to register, for a pace of about 2 million each year.
Women, whom the government has never ordered to sign up, would add 11 million to the Selective Service System database “in short order,” the report says.
I turn 27 in a little over a week… so I’m good.
A gender-neutral registration, the report says, “would convey the added benefit of promoting fairness and equity not previously possible in the process and would comport the military Selective Service System with our nation’s touchstone values of fair and equitable treatment, and equality of opportunity.”
Congress came close last November to enacting a law that would require women to sign up, with Republican and Democratic backing. An amendment cleared the House Armed Services Committee, but Republican leaders scuttled the move and instead created a commission to conduct a two-year examination.
The Pentagon report, titled “Report on the Purpose and Utility of Registration System for Military Selective Service,” makes two other significant findings.
When I think of what would make our military stronger, I think of “promoting fairness and equity.”
JUST KIDDING.
Don’t you worry Trigglypuff. You won’t get drafted quite yet. It’s all just virtue signaling so you won’t pee on someone’s lawn or whatever it is you do.
There is no foreseeable reason to restart conscription to augment the 2.1 million all-volunteer active and reserve force.
“The Department of Defense currently has no operational plans that envision mobilization at a level that would require conscription,” the Pentagon says.
“Even in the face of sustained conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, DoD has maintained its ability to recruit and retain a professional volunteer force without resorting to a draft.”
Second, the report says registration should stay because of a number of benefits.
For one, it sends a strong message to world adversaries that, if necessary, the U.S. can conduct a mass mobilization.
“Eliminating military selective service could be interpreted by adversaries of the United States as a potential weakness, thus emboldening existing or potential enemies,” the Pentagon says.
The report quotes Ronald Reagan, who referred to registration as an “insurance policy.”
The huge database is also a boon to military recruiters, who can access the names and addresses for leads.
Registration “empowers America’s young men. The voluntary act of registration by a young man on or around his 18th birthday has been, and will continue to be, an opportunity for young American men and male immigrants to consider deliberately a future of military service, and to act accordingly,” the report says.
America’s young MEN.
You want equality… you got equality.
Commence the SCREAMS from libs about how this isn’t “what they meant.”
We can’t get health for women but we can draft them to fight wars? Where is the justice?

There’s a war against women currently going on if you haven’t noticed – draft them, legislate control over their bodies, sexually abuse them
