So you don't like the idea of it but you agree with everything they want? I am also a bit confused as to why you think women should meet the same standards and be required to register with selective service but should get preferential treatment when it comes to choosing a job. You get a 16 on your ASVAB you should have the same choice a male does; Infantry or....Infantry?

I don't like the idea of these law students doing it - when they have no military experience and they state "constitutional right" as their basis. THAT is what gets me.

Did I say they should get preferential treatment when choosing a job? Where did I say that because now I'm confused? All I see in my comment you replied to is that they should open combat MOSs to women. I didn't say that women would flock to them. Just that those would be another option IF they qualify. Aso if someone gets a 16 on their ASVAB - male or female - I don't think they're getting in. They are returning to standards again with all the budget cuts and having to get rid of people. I guess I should've clarified more of "I don't like the idea of this." That was a bit vague. No we shouldn't get preferential treatment on choosing a job but we don't get preferential treatment on choosing a job now anyway.
