Why do men always bring up “the draft” (the last military draft was in 1972) when abortion rights are being discussed? - are they advocating that women ought to owe our bodies to the government? Should anyone owe their body to the state?

Dumb; and

(Well, okay, they don’t say “eligible” because that’s a four-syllable word, but you know what I mean.)

Conservatives men.

What do you think of Donald Trump doing a Tesla infomercial today for Elon Musk—his biggest political donor—in front of the White House?

Conservative men. Not women. Not feminists.

Uneducated…a hat trick of intellectual dysfunction.

Because men are dumb. Or at least, “men’s rights activists” are dumb.

If Fox News doesn’t show it to them and Andrew Tate doesn’t tweet about it, it doesn’t exist in their little world.

And then antifeminists, who also aren’t the brightest tinsel in the pom, be all “hurr durr, if women want equality, durr, why don’t they say women should be eligible for the draft? Durr.”

They don’t know about Google. They don’t know about history. They don’t know about politics. They live in a little hermetically sealed bubble of ignorance, getting all their information about the outside world from Fox News and Andrew Tate.

What would be the likely consequences if the Canadian Premier Doug Ford makes good on his threats to "cut off energy and critical mineral exports" to the US to retaliate against potential tariffs?

So basically, the dork-bollockses who are like “but but but but but but but but whaddabout THE DRAFT!!!!11!1” when normal people talk about issues like feminism or abortion are:

Conservative men. Again.

And the answer is, feminists do say women should register for the draft, and have repeatedly tried to make it happen, and every single time it’s been blocked by…

Why does Russia seem so angry over the US and UK missile strikes in Ukraine?

Ignorant; and also

MRAs are like “hurr durr, if women say they should have choice, durr durr, then what about, like, the draft, durr. We don’t get a choice about draft registration, durr, so why should women get a choice about having babies? That’s totally the same thing.”

Look! Not a woman or a feminist.

Does sleeping with earbuds cause ear pain?

Look! Also not a woman or a feminist.
