Think for a second, "All woman when they turn 18 must register for selective service or lose college loans, etc." This is 2007. We all benefit from living in America. It is wrong to mandate only males serve in the military if a draft is put in place. Ladies, you should be as vocal for young men as you would if only young women had to register. You can't have it both ways.

  1. When a man can give birth,Then women should have to register for selective service.


  2. good point i agree

  3. Only males are required to sign up, between the ages of 18 and 26.

  4. You are correct and wrong.  The better view is no selective service.  Really.  Right now we have a system to catch the college bound males and the poorer ones at that.  Not very fair.  I say do away with it.  You want to find the young people for some war?  Drivers licenses are the easiest way to track them down.  Both men and women.  If the need really arises.

    If we are to keep this system that we have now, pass the ERA to the constitution, and then sign up the ladies.  Also, pay them equal pay.  

    I remember watching the draft lottery, and hearing my draft number coming up at 315.  That was the first lottery.  They called up until 290 in October and stopped for the year.  I remember taking that card out of my wallet and tossing it into a desk drawer.
