My opinion about military service

in #life6 years ago (edited)

It's not a meme or a highlight. I just want to discuss (because I like to discuss)

I hate the fact that in my country, Men have an obligation to serve in military and you have 2 choices: 8 months or 11 months. In my opinion, all people should be equal. Women should have also some kind of "duty" where they learn to sew, how to cook etc. It could last for five months or something like that. I find that this is a little bit unfair tho, why Men have to "waste" 8 or 11 months, ok that's not a waste because it's pretty fun to spend time with your friends there, but it's hard for some people (Mostly for people who are fat). That's all about my opinion, I'm not against people who have a different opinion, everyone has his/her own opinion so let's be nice to each other.

Any thoughts about it?

Question. Do the women already know how to do these things? Are they expected to be married and take care of their families right out of school? If not, agreed! Equal rights all the way around. I have always felt the young people getting out of high school here in the States should do some form of community service for at least one year. That would be towards military, community services, and the such.

No, older women do know yeah but most of the girls (under 18) actually don't know these things nowadays it always depends on their mother or they can learn by themselves. To be honest, boys who are under 18, know better how to cook, how to do ironing etc. No girls aren't ready for take care of their family straight after the school. In my country, Marriage isn't that popular at young age. but i like your perspective tho.

Wow. I just can't fathom! All three of my children knew how to do the basic cooking, cleaning and things to survive. Wow.
