Why don't females have to register for the selective service?

I'm registering right now and it clearly states that it's men only. I'm sure most of you knew this already, and now that I think of it so did I, but what the fuck? This has been around for so long, and feminist rights bitches are complaining about every little form of equality, so why the hell don't they have to register? I might be late to this argument, but seriously what the fuck

Quote"The existence of the combat restrictions clearly indicates the basis for Congress' decision to exempt women from registration. The purpose of registration was to prepare for a draft of combat troops. Since women are excluded from combat, Congress concluded that they would not be needed in the event of a draft, and therefore decided not to register them."[37]

Wut? Lololololol Man, you're sooooo 1940's.  Get with the movement.  Feminists don't want complete equality because the standards of equality were created by men.  They recognize some differences between the sexes, and instead of complete equality, they want an end to oppression.

And man, you gotta get with the movement.  There's hot debate about women's rights in the military right now.

I think women want to be the oppressors, not end oppression.

Yeah women  don't want it cut down the middle, which is why they opposed the Equal Rights Amendment, which they argued would have taken away some of their exclusive working rights, given men equal footing in divorce/custody cases, required women to register for the draft, and blur the line between the sexes.
