I've often wondered why the Libertarians are so prone to say, "Oh just sign up" when this question comes up. It means you can't borrow government money, and can't get a government job...so?
If you have already signed on the dotted line for "active duty" military or a military officer academy, you don't need to unless you get out before the age of 26. Once you turn 26, you are exempt.
What you "benefit" from by entering into selective service?

It sounds like most people could live without that LOLstudent financial aid, government employment, employment with the U.S. Postal Service, job training, and U.S. citizenship for male immigrants.

the answers you seek are here....
The Militia Act of 1792 starts off thus:
I. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That each and every ..... male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia, by the Captain or Commanding Officer of the company, within whose bounds such citizen shall reside, and that within twelve months after the passing of this Act. ...... That every citizen, so enrolled and notified, shall, within six months thereafter, provide himself with a good musket or firelock, a sufficient bayonet and belt, ........ and every citizen so enrolled, and providing himself with the arms, ammunition and accoutrements, required as aforesaid, shall hold the same exempted from all suits, distresses, executions or sales, for debt or for the payment of taxes.
I never registered, but my case was unusual.
Out of every one hundred men they send us, ten should not even be here. Eighty will do nothing but serve as targets for the enemy. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, upon them depends our success in battle. But one, ah the one, he is a real warrior, and he will bring the others back from battle alive.
Duty is the most sublime word in the English language. Do your duty in all things. You can not do more than your duty. You should never wish to do less than your duty.
I never registered as well , but my circumstances were probably rare as well . On the other side , I am over the age limit for that militia and down to just one good belt and no bayonet. Lots of rifles ,tomahawks , machetes , ice picks and bowies though.LOL. I like the tax exemption though .
In some states, you are still subject to militia duty to age 60, but the Samuel Whittemore types have no age limit.

"One thing my years in Washington taught me is that most politicians are followers, not leaders. Therefore we should not waste time and resources trying to educate politicians. Politicians will not support individual liberty and limited government unless and until they are forced to do so by the people," says Ron Paul."
I did sign and actually joined the Military for a while, back when I was young and did not have a clue that our Military acted on behalf of Bankers, not the protection of the People. I also joined for an education, during peace time.
However, this was all by my CHOICE. And that is what is taken away for many, is the CHOICE to enlist or not. As a nation, we are quickly becoming Nazi Germany. Our choice to not support the insane actions of our politicians and those they truly represent is gone, as is our Freedom to choose anything for ourselves. "Fight for the 'Enemy' or DIE" Those are quickly becoming our choices. If our Govt was actually behaving in a manner that is befitting of the "Leaders of the FREE World", our Govt would have no problem getting people to volunteer for Military Service. The more that they practice this Military Interventionism, act as the World Police, and continue to abuse the power of our Military, the less people that will volunteer, and the more that FORCE is needed to keep the Military alive and strong.
The attitudes of many of our own citizens has changed. We used to look on our Veterans as heroes. We used to look at Cops as Peacekeepers. But many of our own people look at Vets as second class citizens. "Its okay and expected for you to die for my beliefs, but when you need my help, I wont lift a finger." Then we've damn near completely militarized our Police, and we see where that has gotten us. At least around here, many do not trust Cops at all. I had to deal with some last night, and that had the potential to be a total non incident, but there was an overwhelming potential to go sideways, so I intervened and prevented anything from happening, but this is all off the point. If anyone there believed we did not have the respect of the other, that lack of respect would have caused the whole situation to go sideways. If the dogs did not believe the cops respected them or I believed that the cops did not respect me, it could have been a problem. This general expectation that violence is the only way for solving problems, then those that maintain that belief are the source of the problem.
Violence is no solution. And forcing people to volunteer violence, such as mandatory military enlistment, the only result can be more violence.

The law is that almost every single male residing in the United States, legally or illegally, must register. The only exceptions are foreigners who are in the US on non-immigrant visas.
Almost all male U.S. citizens, and male immigrants living in the U.S., who are 18 through 25, are required to register with Selective Service. It's important to know that even though he is registered, a man will not automatically be inducted into the military. In a crisis requiring a draft, men would be called in sequence determined by random lottery number and year of birth. Then, they would be examined for mental, physical and moral fitness by the military before being deferred or exempted from military service or inducted into the Armed Forces.
A chart of who must register is also available.
NON-CITIZENS
Some non-citizens are required to register. Others are not. Non-citizens who are not required to register with Selective Service include men who are in the U.S. on student or visitor visas, and men who are part of a diplomatic or trade mission and their families. Almost all other male non-citizens are required to register, including undocumented immigrants, legal permanent residents, and refugees. The general rule is that if a male non-citizen takes up residency in the U.S. before his 26th birthday, he must register with Selective Service. For a more detailed list of which non-citizens must register, see Who Must Register - Chart .

Yes it could preclude you from getting some government privileges (loans, employment, etc.).
But it is not "The Law" for We The People.
Look up the definitions of "Person," "Individual" etc.
It doesn't pertain to most Americans.
Has anyone heard of the 13th Amendment?

The Supreme Court has ruled if a "law" (really a corporate statue in most cases) is in contradiction to the Constitution, it is not law.

I never signed up. I recall getting some sort of application in the mail at 18. I threw it out. Nothing ever happened. I had a NJ driver's license in my teens and 20's and never applied for any sort of student aid.
I signed up by mail after I turned 18, and wrote "I AM A CO" in the margins. (I would have been signed up automatically upon getting a license, at least this way my beliefs are "registered" to an extent.)

If you do not want to, don't.
If you don't, you will be ineligible for government jobs... whoopdie frikkin' doo. You cannot get government student loans... whoopdie frikkin' doo.
Be aware that if you do register, you tacitly acknowledge the legitimacy of Theire authority over you. So the real question is this: what price have you placed on your soul? If politics is that important to you, then register; but when you're in Afghanistan or some other hot $#@!-hole and the $#@!'s flying and you have no idea whether the breath you're taking is your last, dare you not complain of any of it because you willingly and knowingly signed up for it.
Seems you're at a nexus and the decision you make could well shape several aspects of your life for a long time to come. I will not say whether registering (or not) is right or wrong. That decision is up to you. But whatever choice you make, you will have to live with the consequences, so I would strongly recommend you take some alone time to sit in a comfy chair, perhaps with some wine, beer, or whatever relaxes you wihtout dulling your senses, and you take the time and make the effort to decide on what it is you really want in life and what you are willing to pay to get it. Personally, I do not think the decision in question is one to be taken lightly.

There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.
It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.
Our words make us the ghosts that we are.
Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.
When you give taxes to the thieves do you tacitly acknowledge the state's authority over you? Are taxes then justified? What about permits and regulations? If you abide by them, and submit to the authority, is it justified and do you have no right to complain, you willingly conceded to it, did you not? I view such logic as akin to the liberal (classically or otherwise) concept of implicit social contracts. Or similar to the argument that voting justifies the state and is inherently immoral (which many anarchists have refuted.) If one believes in natural law one understands that any contract can be broken at any time, and that slavery is immoral, even in the case in which the participant signed a paper declaring himself as a slave. So I do, very much, disagree with the assessment that one "willingly" or "voluntarily" signed up for the draft when threatened with coercion or force (see below) just as I disagree with the concept that we pay voluntary taxes because we choose that over imprisonment. Even if it were to be true that we accepted the draft, we can remove our consent and participation any time we wish, if it were truly voluntary. So it is a disservice to minimize and remove the presence of coercion in this matter, as it is there.

A man who fails to register may, if prosecuted and convicted, face a fine of up to $250,000 and/or a prison term of up to five years.

Lol I spelled it out on the form, but I figured I could shorten it in my response here.
THE SELECTIVE SEVICE ACT IS FOR THE ARMED FORCES
§ 451. SHORT TITLE; CONGRESSIONAL DECLARATION OF POLICY
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/ht...1----000-.html
How Current is This?
(a) This Act may be cited as the “Military Selective Service Act”.
(b) The Congress declares that an adequate armed strength must be achieved and maintained to insure the security of this Nation.
(c) The Congress further declares that in a free society the obligations and privileges of serving in the *armed forces and the reserve components thereof should be shared generally, in accordance with a system of selection which is fair and just, and which is consistent with the maintenance of an effective national economy.
The “Armed Forces is not the Military
There is no such “committee” in Congress to oversee the “Armed Forces”, there is just the Armed Services, chaired by Carl Levin it’s a word game.
The chartered Armed Services “Corporation”, was renamed “Armed Forces’ in 1947, same whore, just a different dress.
The selective Service for the Armed Services, now Armed Forces, was for promotion to higher “pay scale’, not for Military Service, Military induction is through Congress, not a “chartered” Corporation
The “Selective Service “ form has no authorized OMB control number, it’s a bogus form
The “Armed Services” is a “chartered “ “for profit” Corporation. See below
