If women want truly equal rights then they need to sign up for the Selective Service
Women need to sign up for the Selective Service, just like all men are required to do at 18.
It is not just nor fair to women for them to be excluded in signing up for the Selective Service. If they can serve in the military voluntarily, then they are also able to be drafted if a draft occurs.

For women to have truly equal rights, then they need to be forced to sign up by law as well. Otherwise it’s just more evidence of a patriarchy subverting women’s rights.

Sex
InFebruary 2019, the male-only military draft registry was ruled to be unconstitutional by a federal district judgein National Coalition for Men v. Selective Service System.[53] Following the ruling, Selective Service System attorney Jacob Daniels told reporters: "Things continue here at Selective Service as they have in the past, which is men between the ages of 18 and 25 are required to register with Selective Service. And at this time, until we receive guidance from either the court or from Congress, women are not required to register for Selective Service."[54] On August 13, 2020, the federal district judge's opinion was unanimously overturned by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit. The Court held that male-only military draft registration is constitutional on the basis that "only the Supreme Court may revise its precedent."[55]
The Selective Service System considers the term "male" in the federal law to refer to the sex observed at birth, so trans women are required to register, while trans men are not.[56] Failure to register can cause problems such as denial of Pell Grants, even when registration would not have been allowed.[57] As of 2019, the policy toward allowing service of transgender personnel in the United States military is its own subject of legal dispute. If upheld, under the ban ordered by President Donald Trump, trans women who were required to register with the Selective Service System would not be allowed to serve in the military if drafted or volunteering.
A congressionally-mandated commission recommended in March 2020 that women should be eligible for the draft.[58]
