When people say all men should fight in the war...

It's like saying that if your country was struck by a horrendous tsunami, all men should rush in the direction of the thunami to try to save as many people as possible, despite having zero qualifications or knowledge about tsunamis, and those who run away from the tsunami are cowards who should forever suffer from survivor's guilt.

It is not a crime to literally survive, when disaster strikes.

There's a lot more to war than fighting on the front anyways. The rest of life still needs to continue at home or else what is left when the fighters come back? If all the male doctors go become medics who is going to treat the child who gets cancer? If all the electricians and plumbers and carpenters leave to die on the front who rebuilds the homes and businesses destroyed by missile fire?

@ViciDraco Actually my female doctor also goes on trips to the front lines now and then. I don't know if she has to because she's a doctor, or if she chooses to. She's awesome btw.
