If we are going to have a draft the law needs to be amended to not specify gender. Period. Women are now allowed to serve in combat positions, which eliminates the previous justification for the exemption of women from the draft.
Equality means everything is equal, the bad along with the good.
I am not some SJW radical feminist (Far from it), but I think women and minorities should have been allowed the right to serve and vote even before we became an independent nation.
How does selective service view men that call themselves women? Do they have to sign up?
They sign up with gender they were born with meaning only males. Those that are confused but are biologically male have to register. But all they have to do when drafted is profess mental illness and they won’t get drafted.

NO ONE should have to sign up. Conscription is slavery.
“[T]he most fundamental objection to draft registration is moral…a draft or draft registration destroys the very values that our society is committed to defending.”

Did not keep him from sending men off to die after they were drafted.
LOL good point. Although highly unlikely, if a draft were to be imposed soon, I could see lots of men transitioning into women. They same sort of men that ran to Canada during previous drafts.
I say give them a pass. Morally wrong that they avoid the services but it probably is better overall.
If something so serious happened that we needed the draft they would start shooting these draft dodgers and it would be a miracle how it would straighten out their sexual identity.

hmm the draft ended in 1973, like or hate Reagan I really don't care but he never drafted anybody. Anyone still in the military in 1981 when Reagan became president wanted to be there.
