The White House Says Women Should Be Required to Register for the Military Draft

[MuseRider]

155. I am posting once since the primaries were over

to say this is exactly it. ERA and we will, it is only fair. I do not give one damn if the military is equal, somehow I have not seen real proof of that and it seems like a pretty awful place for some women who have entered service. Actually I would rather see equality by dropping this mandatory sign up for everyone.

We get equal pay. We get protections by our government to assure us we can do whatever we want without fear of retribution because we are somehow threatening the men folk or they are just being inappropriate because they have been allowed to be that way since.....for fucking ever. Those who would treat us badly would suffer the consequences not women getting fired because the poor men just could not handle it. I would be happy to never be patted on the head or have my butt patted ever again.

I am long past giving a damn if men are upset by this. I have trained too many men to do a job that I was proficient at only to find out they were getting paid twice what I was and they were just beginning a job that I had been doing for years.

ERA or no go.
