An interesting view of female privilege.

I am to understand pad that "not being included in the military draft" was because of male chauvinistic attitudes towards female personnel .."Not being able to cut it". I also understand that this has been recently rectified so that now (should the female recruit/ officer want to) women can be sent to active tours of duty (if they can cut it)
