If women were to be included in any draft, and if the draft were to be reinstituted, what percentage of women would suddenly reject feminism?

I'm sure there are also plenty who think it just makes sense from and "equal rights" POV. It's just hard to tell what people's real motivations are.
So many government resources get restricted from you for failing to register for the draft. The consequences for it are high. Realistically, the odds of a draft are astronomically small, and given that women are now allowed in fighting rolls in the military, the reason for keeping them out of the draft is gone.
This creates an unequal situation where men are required to fill out meaningless paperwork, or be severely restricted in what programs they can access. To equalize the situation, 1 of 2 solutions is acceptable. Make all people of age be required to fill out the paperwork or face the consequences, or remove the paperwork entirely.
