I was not able to serve but I understand what you’re saying. But women served in auxiliary rolls since WWII and before. Why not draft them.

The reason I asked about serving is that it was pretty clear that you haven’t seen how silly women appear in the military, they can’t lift heavy things like big cooking pots, or putting things into trucks, or put up large tents, or dig entrenchments or change the tires on their trucks, they can’t run, jump, carry, lift, they get injured easily, have health problems when living in dirt and mud, they are not up to doing support jobs.

We draft to make up for shortcomings in male enlistments, we don’t draft inadequate males, weak males who can’t make it in the military, the last thing we would want to do when we are desperate for warriors, is to draft women, that is what the draft is supposed to prevent.

Women used to be limited to 2% of the military, and were less in reality, and they served in jobs that average soldiers rarely saw them in, they served back at the administrative parts of the permanent military bases, the finance offices, legal services, nursing, they were not out in the field interfering with the men at work and with the hard charging work being done.

Much of any large military’s forces specialize in attacking the enemies rear, and they are the most elite soldiers, like paratroopers and Rangers, yet much of their mission description is to attack and destroy the support troops, the troops in the rear, the places that today are largely populated by girls.

As a side note, what do you think happens if a nation kills off it’s reproductive aged women? Do you think that losing a million young females is equal to losing a million males when it comes to sustaining or rebuilding a population?
