Conscription should not be
Exactly! But… where it already exists, and is needed, why should it be bigoted and sexist?
Legitimate question, maybe it's because the practice of conscription is rooted in patriarchy? The idea that a group of men with superior social power forcing men with inferior social power to fight and die for them seems to be very patriarchal to me. With that lens it makes sense why women aren't conscripted, it's not their job. Maybe their job is to be the prize for the victor....? That's dark......
