That’s good as long as they aren’t allowed in combat or frontline roles.
Id’ rather have a system of professional soldiers, with good wages and new equipment.
As it is today, not many stays after the initial 4-8 month because of shoddy conditions and psychopathic officers.
I’m all for women in the military.
“Canon-fodder” is gender neutral after all
Is there a maximum age? Or it is only from 18-19 years? If you are a women at 35-36 can you still be called?
What’s about it thinking Danes?
How nice, this way, instead of falling in 24 hours, the country will fall in 26 hours.
2025 and still believing that wars are decided by the number of soldiers and not by their training and armament, not to mention nuclear deterrence, in short, an excellent strategy to keep happy voters whose IQ is equal to that of a donkey in heat.
How are Danes not more mad at this? The same government put up the retirement age to 70 which was absolute insanity. The youth are being sold down the river for the all the boomers.
Watch this somehow being a way to conscript people to work in retirement homes.
Either by making it a choice betwee 2 years military or 1 year “civil service”.
Or just deploying the military to retirement homes directly.
Let me guess, a lottery that conveniently never hits daughters of the ruling class?
25% of the soldiers are already women even without this “day of defense” invitation to all women turning 18 after July 1.
It is not so much conscription as a way to tell the young generation about the possibilities in the military. The recruits is practically 100% volunteers.
Denmark also uses the conscription day as a way to test that particular age. Be it weight, height, IQ, vision, fitness…… All that beautiful data is thrown into the scientists and researchers wish box of digital extraxtable data. If there is one region or city with conscripted showing signs of bad teeth, cancer rate, poor vision…. Then it makes the alarm bells ring and hopefully get faster diagnostic to figure out why that is.
What happens if you go but refuse to follow orders… do they kick you out or?
The lottery system is horrendous. Imagine being the unlucky one drawing the short end of the stick and having to serve. Conscription itself is terrible, but this must hurt mentally if you’re the unlicky one.
Should be noted it’s always been a lottery system. It’s just that there has always been enough volunteers that it’s never been relevant.
The increased conscription duration might change that, we’ll see.
The Russians are gonna be totally terrified of a bunch of teenage girls. For sure. Putin must be shaking in his boots.
If you’re going to have conscription, you better have it be gender neutral. But don’t have conscription in the first place, but have a professional army.
It’s always been a lottery system. The only change is women are now part of the lottery.
YPJ were pretty effective during the Battle of Kobane and the Raqqa offensive. Woman can definetly be effective fighters.
What’s the penalty for refusing?
Good! Everybody should benefit from having military training.
Thought I was having a stroke while reading this…
> The program was originally expected to be implemented by early 2027, but has been **pushed back** to summer 2025.
> Denmark, a nation of 6 million, has about 9,000 professional troops. The new agreement is expected to bring the number **up to** 6,500 people performing military service each year by 2033, up from 4,700 last year.
Not a big fan of the change tbh.
A lottery where you lose by winning?
Legit question. Did danish feminists demand this?
