Dearest Brothers:
You know, people "once said" that women should not join the U.S. Armed
Forces, because it is a "traditional" male organization, along with the dangers of
the enemy raping, having forced sex, or torturing a women prisoner of war that
is unbearable to see or know about.
Well, look now...approx. 25% to 30% of the current U.S. military in Iraq are
composed of women. Women that are willing to bear the ultimate sacrifice, just
like their male counterparts.
The Toast Song debate has become a civil war affair between tradition versus
global inclusive respect in the 21st century.
So, in that case, if the U.S. were to follow "tradition", just like what the
proponets of the Toast Song in keeping "men of", why shouldn't the U.S. just
do the following below:
1. Repeal the 19th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which allows women
to vote.
2. Ban all homosexuals, lesbians, and transgenders, because religion
explains traditionally it should be both a male and female.
3. Most importantly, abolish the 13th amenment of the U.S. Constitution,
and impose slavery of people once again, because traditionally, the majority
race should rule, just like motto of the Nazi German party.
Yes, in all fairness and justice, are we really the number # 1 service
fraternity in the world? or do we just say that, because we can't and won't admit
that tradition is much better off than equality. What kind of positive example
and interpretation are we setting and sending to the younger generations around
the world?
