that those you say did not serve in Viet Nam did not in fact serve in Viet Nam. But we do know that you did not: women have never been eligible for the draft because they "desrve" "special treatment" while voting to send _males_ to Viet Nam.
There are some areas about which "feminists"/women know nothing and should properly know their limits and shut up about them. One of those--central--is the fact that males, and only males, are drafted and sacrificed in protection of women and children. Women, never being subjected to such, have no knowledge of what that is like--the oppression of it--and nothing much of value to say on the matter.
Back off a "male" realm to which you are not privy, and never shall be privy, so long as women are exempt from _equality_ in that regard. And, no: not even feminists will volunteer for such dirty "equality".
Life matters. Death is dumb. Stop the war. Stop the imposition of "superiority" onto others. Stop all sexism including the female.
