Well, 2 wrongs make one right, don't they?! I wish we'd first fix women's rights and then extend their duties. What the OP does is just egoistically trying to make other groups also suffer.

"We'll get around to it when some arbitrary measure is met, we promise"

This is the same thing you're criticising - using one injustice to justify another.

I don't have intentions to justify an injustice. I'm saying why should we try to make it even harder for a disadvantaged group? It does not help a single German man if women also have to comply to this law. Fixing women's rights on the other hand gives everybody the benefit of living in a society that is more fair. For me, that's a valuable goal.

You may claim not to have the intention, but materially, it's what you're doing.

Everyone doesn't get drafted at once. It stands to reason that drafting women would mean fewer men were needed.

Women vote, and pressure politicians into continuing a war that they will never have to fight themselves. Many such cases.

Can you show me a recent war in a democracy where women had greater percentage of supporting a war than men?
