No it matters that you will not address the bullshit men's rights talking point you're dancing around. The Draft is in no way shape or form an equivalency to the centuries of legislation against women's bodies.
My lived experience is what I'm using to support my refutation of that. The Wikipedia links and sources I've posted support my refutation of that.
It's not an opinion. It's an internationally historic legacy of rape and pain vs a really shitty time for poor young men in America. Your attempt to appeal to my good nature doesn't change that fact.
Internalize what I've said. Know you were wrong and apologize to any of the people you might've triggered with your bullshit false equivalency.
I'm not trying to make a comparison between the draft and centuries of legislation against women's bodies. I'm saying that the statement that there are no laws controlling men's bodies is incorrect because the draft has and could still exist. You seem to think I'm trying to prove that men have it worse and I'm not.
You might want to edit your original post to reflect that. Because I'm not the only person who's replied to you that believes the same.
