Female privilege is not having to risk your life fighting for your country. Female privilege is having much stronger emotional support that results in fewer suicides. Female privilege is reduced sentences for equal crimes. Female privilege is winning child custody cases even when you’re a less fit parent. Female privilege is society unanimously deeming you less expendable than men. And yet you will rarely hear the term.
White privilege is nothing but a slur meant to cut people down. It is not surprising that people feel attacked by it.
Conscriptions is no one's burden in the modern US, which has a military expressly designed not to use conscripts in any capacity, even in major contingencies.
... which is incredibly naive. It assumes a permanence to the current state of affairs where none exists. A World War scenario could not be fought with volunteers, which is why the Selective Service System still exists.
>even in major contingencies.
Yeah, no. There are contingency plans for major conflicts that absolutely do involve the draft.
> A World War scenario could not be fought with volunteers
It absolutely could. Something that looked like WWI or WWII couldn't, but a modern major power conflict wouldn't look like anything like those.
> which is why the Selective Service System still exists.
But no draft law, and thus no conscription, exists: conscription is no one's burden. Any actual draft law would likely make changes to the selective service system based on whatever vision of conscription motivated the draft law itself, rendering guesses about the hypothetical future burden of conscription based on the registration-with-no-legal-basis-for-conscription system that exists today purely speculative.
