I'm a woman and I served in the military. In fact, I was front line at a time when we had 'no women front line troops'. Because it turns out the military needed women at the front line for precisely some of the reasons raised on this thread.
I was trained in the search and detention women. Enemy combatants got wise to the fact men would not search women which led to women being the ones who carried information, weapons, etc. (some willingly, others under duress). So the British (and other nations) realized they had to have women to perform the searches (or be accused of sexual assault, rape, etc. which are war crimes). So they brought women to the front lines - at the time never under an infantry / cavalry cap badge, but attached to those troops. Other units that had both men and women such as logistics, artillery, intelligence also performed front line roles. We all managed to have periods (or not, I ran birth control back to back), and have babies (you were returned to base if you told them you were pregnant, there was a line drawn there, but many women concealed it until there was no hiding as they didn't want to RTU). No one I served with was raped by an enemy combatant that I am aware of.
Yes, rape is a possibility if women are captured (solider or civilian). But the vast majority of military personnel are never captured - pow numbers are tiny. If they are captured you have to remember that whatever propaganda you've read, most serving soldiers are normal humans - how many men do you know in your lives that would rape a vulnerable woman? Enemy soldiers are not, for the most part, monsters. But the very small number there are are the ones who make the news or, more often, are used by media to stir up a frenzy. Most armies have civilized hierarchical structures, with people like me charged with absolute adherence to the rules of warfare. Treating prisoners correctly, ensuring the protection of soldiers and civilians.
Someone up thread asked if rape was worse than other torture as a pow. Fortunately I never found out but for sure I thought about it, and I determined (as did many others because we discussed it) that rape was quite far down the 'worst options' list based on what else went on in some places (though frankly some of the worst was from allied forces not the enemy).
In terms of skills, people are overly focused on speed and strength. Modern warfare is far more about strategy. And women are very good at that as a rule - IME women outperformed men in pure tactical exercises almost every time - whether it is biology (women are, objectively better at visualizing things and thinking about multiple steps down a chain apparently) or whether we all felt obliged to be better than the men around us as we faced overt sexism every day in our roles, it is hard to say. Women can also be great shots, great drivers, excel in artillery, be fantastic at signals, all of which are needed at the front line.
To answer the question no, I don't think conscription is likely. People who don't want to be there / aren't fit / aren't trained are liabilities. They'll give away your position, take more troops to deal with them being injured and put others in danger. No serviceman or woman wants conscription. Trench warfare is a thing of the past. Holding a field is not a good use of lives. Modern warfare does however need manpower in built up areas to clear buildings, because it is against all the rules of armed conflict to indiscriminately bomb the shite out of them (yes Israel I am talking to you). So you need people to clear urban areas of enemy troops / insurgents. Turns out women are pretty good in urban warfare. They are generally of smaller build, able to crawl more easily in tunnels, sewers, etc. Able to blend in to civilian populations far more easily than a man of fighting age. Equally able as men at setting explosive charges. So if there were conscription yes, I think it applies to both genders, and duties should be assigned based on aptitude- many men in their 20s can't tie their shoelaces, and many women in their 20s are gym bunnies - all this weaker sex as a defence is codswallop.
Finally, I don't feel nearly as scared of Russia as I did in the 80s. I think most of those who think the sky is falling are too young to remember four minute warnings and what would happen during a nuclear winter. I'm guessing my grandparents felt the same way about me, having lived through other terrible times.
