That's a non-sequitur to the question.

And the answer is that women are equal to men in all things, except when things get serious, and then all of a sudden biology matters again

Well women are the rate limiting factor in having more men produced for war fodder.

It probably makes more sense to ban birth control at the same time men are required to die for the war machine as both would then be playing out their slavery-induced biological role in ensuring survival of the nation. That is if you're down with the whole slavery for war thing.

Biologically true, but probably not in practice. Do we think Ukraine will compell women to repopulate postwar? It won't happen.

That’s essentially what the commenter is proposing when talking about banning birth control. This would be equivalent to compelling women to reproduce (or forego sexual relations, which in reality most people won’t do).

Wouldn't make more sense instead of make conscription mandatory only for men, to make it mandatory for all childless people then?

Most actively wars are over long before the replacement rate starts to matter, and women that get pregnant or raise children will in all likelihood get an excemption from frontline duty.

How so? Why isn't the question 'Why is anyone being forced at all?' Their question assumes that someone has to be forced, which I fundamentally disagree with, so they should justify that assumption first.

Correct. They are equal, so I don't think either men or women should be forced.

> women are equal to men in all things, except in extreme circumstances when violence is required on a mass scale

Fixed that for you.

Not only violence. There are plenty of concerning situations in which you all of a sudden stop putting middle-manager women in email jobs or HR/DEI finger-wagging jobs.

When things get existential, the jobs favored by men multiply and the jobs favored by women decrease. And nowhere more than in countries and societies which are highly feminist and supportive of women, which seems counterintuitive but isn't.
