And this is why you don’t have female soldiers.

Ah I see. Rape is OK and the solution is to do away with the victims.

It doesn't let the rapist off the hook, rape is wrong.

Is it smart for a young pretty woman to wear provacative clothes and walk for a year through the darkest alleys in town at night? Odds are she will be raped within that year. It doesn't make it right, but the woman is not thinking either. She has to know there are some scum men out there waiting for her. She could have prevented the rape by simply not going for the alley walk.

Having commanded soldiers I can speak from experience on this.

First, not all the sources of harassment and assault are necessarily males. I had female soldiers who were the victims of female assault. And it gets a lot harder to exersize military authority in female living areas

Secondly, just as was shown in Abu Ghrab, the authorities can’t monitor every individual every moment.

Third, yes they are victims, but those who urged caution in driving women farther and farther into combat zones warned that this would happen. Your leftist ideologues insisted in placing women in situations where victimization can be expected.

All that said, and contradicting this leftist feminazi, I believe American soldiers are a cut above their 18-24 year old counterparts and the incidence of this is far lower than is measurable than at most large universities.

Again I speak from personal experience having last week spoken to the dean of stuents at the local university about a drug-alcohol death our daughter witnessed in the dormitory.

This dean explained that my generation can’t conceive how predatory male female relationships have come to be. Date-rape and incapacitating drugs are common and even if a grl just gets drunk enough to lose control the men who observe her will feel no inhibition to sexually using her. And these are MIDDLE CLASS college student. What must it be like in neighborhoods where mysoginistic rap music sets the social climate?

This is the brave new world you leftists wanted. When women were prtected you said they were enslaved or dominated. Can’t wait for the next dehumanizing iniative that you force upon us using the benevolent power of liberalism.

lol Only someone with the screen name Non-Sequitur could make such a completely and utterly off topic and pointless post. Well done. How is the weather in your own little world?
