Good idea. No need for you to get the shit kicked out of you debating people that do so with facts, not rhetoric and touchy-feely sentiments about the past.

What women are US citizens enslaving currently - as a public policy, none. But US citizens are going to southeast asia to have sex with small children who are definitely enslaved and not consenting. To you, I assume that is touchy-feely rhetoric. To me that is fact - and the fact that it isn't a govt policy involved doesn't make it any the less horrific.

As for women used by troops in the past, our own govt has recorded the fact that they were not consenting - this is indisputable, and it was the subject of the posted article. You may prefer to call that prostitution. I will stick with the fact that prostitutes are consenting adults, radical that I am.
