You asked for facts. Here they are but I don't want to see you claim that you are giving facts without siting sorces. Let's see if you can do it.

"Understanding men requires understanding men's relationship to the three Ws: women, work, and war. Only 18-year-old boys are legally required to register for future wars. Both sexes have the option of joinging the armed services in peacetime, but only men in the services are required to be available for combat in wartime. Should a major war break out, it is only our sons who will be notified within forty-eight hours to report to boot camp. Before men can vote, they have the obligation to protect that right; women receive the right to vote without the ovligation to protect that right."

So you are arguing against a draft?

Why didn't you say so?

That's one man's opinion. That is hardly a fact, as to WHY females should be sent off to war. What does THAT prove ? Wanna try again ?

Maybe we need to take the vote away from females. Is that what you think this guy is suggesting ? I doubt it, but had to ask. OTOH, nowhere, in your post, does he even begin to talk about the actual facts, which are now well know, about the problems of having females in the armed forces; which are NOT isolated incidents.
