stop the draft

several women got involved, stating their opinions at this "Stop the Draft" sight, and they were saying completely different things. Very interesting how differently even just the females view this issue. One lady said it was absolutely absurd to draft women, for reasons such as how emotional women are, men's natural athleticism as opposed to females, the fact that women are intended to be mothers, and in a basic survival type of situation, a lot more women are needed than men to bring in the next generation. Such was one opinion

Another took the opposite route, stating that these "equal rights" we have are not equal. For better or for worse, if we are doing things for the sake of equality, we have no reason not to include women to be drafted the next time around. One part that really bothered her was that, even if it wasn'r required for all women to register, they can't register for it at all. Men have to, and women cannot. She says that some women probably just are not cut out for war at all, so its probably a good thing that they are not required to go. Some women could though, and have talents and capabilities in that area--resources that are not being tapped, but that could be if it was allowed for them to have the option of registering.

Despite my desire to be objective, I agree with her on that point, personally. Gotta be sure not to let that come through in my writing about the different viewpoints.
