It starts from doing the same thing.

 

 

Give it about 5 years and this'll be seriously debated, right??

It's ridiculous that women don't even do civil defense service, something you get exempted from for military service

🐰

No way, if you're gonna bring up physical differences, then it's only fair to accept getting paid less and being disadvantaged in promotions. From Coupang to civil servants, women get special treatment for physical limitations—they get exempted from fieldwork and dispatch assignments. So what the hell are you complaining about inequality for?

🐿️

Wait, seriously discuss it? What are you talking about? Instead of mandatory conscription for women, they lowered the physical standards and dragged kids with health problems in. And all this reserve military nonsense has been killing young people lmao

🐰

Salaries are pretty decent these days, so even if you're not in a combat role, shouldn't you be able to work? Even if it's temporary, it's the right move

Wasn't that stuff not in Defense Reform 2030? (That's when soldier salaries normalized) Then came Defense Innovation 4.0, which plans through 2040, right? It has stuff like reducing troop numbers, automation with AI, and restructuring reserves. Female conscription? Nah, none of that. The recent reservist accident happened because of that reserve restructuring, so forget 5 years—we won't know till 15 years later lmaooo

🐰

Should've been discussed way earlier

🐰

Right, that's the thing lol

🐰

There's stages to it—not just 'send them to the military' immediately, but first get them to take on social responsibilities. Make public service a civic duty, then maybe actually exempt the current public service workers

🐿️

The public service system should just be abolished and replaced with something else. Public service isn't even a duty—it's basically slavery

This is all feminists' fault lol If they'd just quietly done the whole "gaslighting men" thing without male-bashing, guys wouldn't go to the military, they'd get married, become househusbands raising kids, dump all the hard stuff on men while living comfortably. But their greed made them grab the feminist bait so hard trying to snatch the low-hanging fruit that now we got conflict and polarization, and boom—the dishwashing debate exploded. From then on men started demanding women pay "their dues." Once women faced the bill, those calling themselves feminists suddenly ghosted and now play the "new woman" card pushing patriarchy instead lmao

Government defense obligation—congrats~

honestly curious what a Korean test prep teacher could possibly say that's controversial enough to go viral about this

🐰

Just look at how voting rights started...

🐿️

lmao a hagwon instructor having *thoughts* on gender equality is wild, like sir you're just here to prep kids for the SAT 💀

🐿️

Looks like you've got some serious back and posture issues

🐺

the way hagwon culture is already stressful enough without instructors getting preachy about social issues 😭
