I've thought about it. It would give me some kind of direction, help with weight loss, with socializing, and give me an unwarranted status boost among civilian women. Considering how lost and empty I feel, it could be a way out of that.

But on the other hand, I'd be joining up with a lot of sophomoric and arrogant anti-intellectuals with a misguided moral compass. I'd have to accept the lie that my service is making a difference in the world. I'd have most of my freedoms revoked as my time become regimented and my options limited to a select range. I'd be removed from the comforts of home for years and end up coming back to a place I don't recognize and may not belong.

It's tough, but ultimately I'm leaning towards no.

@TinyViolins Where does this come from:[quote][b][i][c=#7700B2]"...sophomoric and arrogant anti-intellectuals..."[/c][/i][/b][/quote]

@sarabee1995 Experience. Mind you, I said "a lot of" these types. Doesn't mean all of them or even a majority, just a large number of people with no direction that just want to dipshit around. There's a reason the sexual assault rate for women in the military is about 40%
sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
@TinyViolins The statistic is not even close to 40%, but nice try.

No. I wish I wasn’t such a coward because I definitely would want to.

@SimplyTracie There are [b]many[/b] jobs in the military that are not combat positions.
If i was fit enough to get a place, i would.

yes, in right circumstances, if there is existential threat to my country, to my beliefs, my family.

in fact, i would not even have to join military, to defend these precious things.

I applied to join the army and the police force once then changed my mind and went into teaching. I don’t teach anymore now though thank goodness 😅 lol!
I often wish I would have stayed in. I probably would have wound up dead or wounded in the sand box though, because I am kind of a reckless person.

No. I can't think of something I'd be less suited for.
