The high school girls have the same problems as everywhere else; alcohol, drugs and bad decisions that can leave a scar for life.
Well, that’s bad. but it’s not military. It’s not rape during a deployment among people with rank. It’s not something to address to Naval Academy grads.
You are describing a situation that must be handled by parents. It’s societal.
The difference between this and sailors on leave in the ‘40s is the difference between a bar scene now and one back then.
Girls back in the ‘70s wouldn’t be right going into a bar with drinking post deployment military guys. My kids would have a strict rule, and would be taught to think clearly enough to know that is a trouble situation.
My father snuck around and followed his daughters at night and had boys checked out by his police detective golfing buddies. And he was Naval Academy. I cringe to think what he and his classmates would have done listening to a lecture from this man who left SEALs behind in Libya.
The women who go out to bars when their husbands deployed in our circle were to be avoided. That is a very troublesome situation, and that is not around a base where a lot of ground troops are hanging around after deployment.
NO.
The way this scandal is headlined, and I read up on it, not having read anything about it, is a few anecdotal tales.
Drinking women hanging around drinking soldiers is a scandal only in that it’s a behavior that does not cry to the president, this president, for some kind of flimsy lecture to the hardest working students in the country.
That there is a favoritism in claiming he said she said, and defending the military member or even the guy, ok, that is something that used to be.
But my question is what is going on in the dorms, on base in the parking lot after work, on deployment? That’s what this is made out to be.
If it’s not a safe place for a woman minding her business and acting like a professional military enlisted or officer, then there is a story. And if there is one, it needs to be told.
It will be quite a change to learn that
I dunno.
Young folks I talk to today indicate promiscuity of women today beyond anything I ever imagined
And I grew up in the age of disco biscuits
Abuse and sexual assault of women has been hyped now since the 70s that a very high number of women have been raped.....pushed by fembots with an agenda
I do not for an instant believe it to even be 5% much less 25%
Sorry
