Conservatives men.

Look! Also not a woman or a feminist.

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…

What are the reasons for people being banned from social media sites like Twitter and Instagram? Why is it considered a big deal?

Dumb; and

Conservative men. Not women. Not feminists.

Look! Not a woman or a feminist.

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:

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.”
