Here it's much like that. The average person has these choices:

1. Get married (many very relegious women do)

2. Leave the country never to come back for more than a month.

3. Do national service (relegious girls usualy do it, but difficult for men
	to get accepted).

4. Get a relegious excemption (only valid if you study in a relegious
   school about 45 weeks a year for the rest of your life)

5. Join the army/navy/airforce and try to get a better job than footsoldier.
   This is highly competative and you have to agree to enlist for extra time.
   For example a computer programmer enlists for 3 years which makes their
   service a total of 6 years.

6. Just go for the draft and hope they think you are too stupid/clumsy to
   be handed a gun.
