Because like the Military Draft, there are things women's groups will not address.

Another View

One reason why both individual women and women's groups alike may object to giving up the advantage women have in certain areas of society is that we are still not equal in all the otherareas of society.

For example, while alimony is still legal, women still make less money than men (see Related Links).

And while only men can be drafted as of yet, the glass ceiling still exists in many professions, and women are still primarily judged by their physical appearance rather than their character and abilities.

When women finally achieve complete social equality in every other aspect of society, then we can talk about leveling the playing field in those few aspects of society where women have the advantage.
