Forced military service has one very important aspect that often get overseen. It is forced. People may object because of moral reasons, or because of religious reasons, or because of fear, but then we also have people who believe that forcing people into service is simply wrong. To me there is very little difference between men being forced into military service and women being forced to breed and taking care of the home, as was a common view of gender roles during world war 2. Men get sent to war and women stay behind and produce more men. It is a very dehumanized way to treat people. The distinction between forced conscription and volunteering to work in the military is day and night, and you only have conscientiously objection in one of those.
