You canât say drafting women is equality when male on female sexual assault is one of the greatest issues inside the military. Forcibly signing women up to be raped is not equality, itâs torture.Â
As someone who served in the military, I have two points. First- sexual assault in the military is a horrible epidemic that puts a black eye on the greatest military on earth, who serves what is supposed to be the free world. While I have seen females that have used sexual assault claims to get back at marines who pissed them off in some way or were too afraid to admit they cheated on a spouse so they just decided to screw somebody else's life up, sexual assault happens frequently. And many service women are afraid to come forward out of fear of retaliation or redicule. The bottom line is women who sign up to serve in a male dominated line of work deserve the same respect their male counterparts are afforded.
Second- I'm sorry but I have to say it. Women and liberals have been pushing for equality in combat roles and have finally got what they wanted. However, that means if a male has to sign up to possibly sacrifice his life, then so does a female. It's called equality. It's called being fair. You wanted it, you got it. Using sexual assault fears as a reason to avoid conscription is an excuse to avoid a duty that you've bestowed upon yourselves only to realize the repercussions of your actions.
The solution to this problem. If something happens to you, report it. Don't sacrifice integrity for a career or social status you fear you may lose. Be an advocate. Be a voice for those who have suffered. Be brave in the face of adversity.
But do not think that you should be allowed to skip out on duty if it comes your way because you are a female. Like I said. You wanted it. You got it.
