It's bad for morale, bad for international PR reasons, most aren't as capable of fighting as most men are,... but in the end, if things get tough, women and children get drafted too.
There were some talks about that in ukraine recently, but nothing much happened on that, so women can still leave the country. - https://www.kyivpost.com/russias-war/confusion-as-registration-of-women-for-the-draft-postponed.html https://www.kyivpost.com/russias-war/confusion-as-registrati...
- dudul 4y agoThe article very specifically highlights that it's not a draft, a mere registration. At the end of the day, even if women are not as good as men at being soldiers they should be drafted similarly. They should see the same rules/laws applied to them. But hey, sometimes we're ok with some inequality I guess.
- lazide 4y ago‘Mere registration’ in the context is a clear precursor to doing a draft, and will likely freak people out. It’s like gun registration and confiscation. The second step may not happen, but why do the first step if it isn’t being considered?
