Answer:
The only thing to consider about the military is that if you are raped (which is much more likely in the armed services than as a civilian, which is a fact most military members and the DoD like to ignore, even though it's completely unacceptable) chances are you will not receive any kind of emotional assistance from the military or your commanding officers. There are stories in the news about women who reported sexual assault and got administrative discharges for "personality disorders." That being said, I served four years (+ two deployments when I was in IRR) in the Air Force with only one incident that could have potentially gravitated to something very serious when I was in Afghanistan. When I lived in the dorms, I was also VERY cautious, never drank, never acted in a suggestive manner (this is the first thing they suggest when you report sexual assault - that you were asking for it, regretted having sex, and now are lying), and only got close to a few of the people I regularly worked with, who are now my lifelong friends. The point is: the military is a male-dominated environment, and unfortunately not all of those men are honorable. Consider whether you're ready to live for four years in that kind of environment.
