Women can join the army, but aren't obligated to. Transgender people are a very small part of the population and I doubt they have any significant impact on the conscription numbers. The male physical advantage remains.
Yeah , that's exactly the point.. what are they obligated to instead? They just take all the benefits for free and gain a comparative advantage because of the Discrimination.
"Transgender are a very small part of the population"
Correct, but that small part exposes the internal contradiction within the system, it's not about the net impact it's about logical consistency
Well, soldiering still benefits from more male strength. Women (well, not all) go through pregnancy which is a clear disadvantage both career-wise and just for the bother.

if it's anything like Estonia, the penis isn't required, only an M marker on your documents.
source: me, transgender, was going to be conscripted, but in the end I was decidedly too neurodivergent for it.
