No one is saying men and women are the same.

The 2 men who have brought suit, are saying that to draft men and NOT women is discriminatory.

Surely the civilised solution to this inequality is to stop the mandatory drafting of men, rather than force it onto women.

Well, yes that too.
But I was thinking of the obvious difference with periods let alone of child bearing.
Certainly different.

Re: Men only. No women

I agree with Bakerman.

Women have finally achieved equality with men in almost all respects, and so they should, respecting physical differences of course.

I don't know about America, but in the UK there are still glaring examples of women not being paid the same amount as men doing exactly the same job. This is something that must change or there really isn't any true equality of the sexes.

If and when we do have true sexual equality, then this must include what Bakerman is arguing for.

Of course, we don't have compulsory military recruitment, but if we did it would be perfectly logical (and in my opinion correct) for women to be included as well as men assuming, of course, that women were assigned to duties appropriate to their gender and physique.

What possible argument against that can there be?
