The latest discussion and hoo-ha happening around in parliament and the newspapers is about women in national service. Some women MPs were pushing for compulsary female national service. That's national service as in go in as a soldier to suffer for two and a half years, serving the president in the hills and the plains, not making babies. Apparently, according to a survey, 45% of women would like to serve national service. The Class 95FM The Morning Express guys did a discussion on it, and apparently men are more opposed to it than women, reason being they don't want Singapore women to all turn into butches(manly women).

Me? I'm all for it. I have absolutely nothing against women serving national service with the guys. Training together with women would be so much more fun than training with all guys. Then again, they'll probably dump all the women to train at a camp seperate from the guys... sigh.
