With Ukraine’s military badly outnumbered by the invading Russians and desperately in need of more soldiers, villages like Makiv are being emptied of their fighting-age men.

    There are plenty of potential recruits left.

    They just don’t have the political stomach to implement true equality. So they continue to treat men as disposable.

        And that justifies treating men as disposable assets of war?

        Some of the best combatants in modern warfare - and no few in historical warfare - have been female.

        Conscription should not be bigoted and sexist.

          Can you provide me with a statistical ratio of those great combatants? Specifically for those who are in the frontlines and fighting.

          Men are much more suited for war, and the skill set of women is better utilized elsewhere.
