kerrixoxo 33719 Report post Posted February 17, 2015 Childhood abuse is often used to validate the reasons to abolish prostitution. I guess we should abolish our national defence (especially with all of it's association with *gasp* violence).* *Note: obvious sarcasm. I have immense respect for military, soldiers, et al. Sorry if I offended anyone. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry if I offended anyone. You caught the irony. The Government runs the Military and yet if one believes this study, they, the Government are exploiting those abused as children Yet the Government in it's arguments against prostitution argues that prostitutes have been victims of childhood abuse and prostitution is continuing the abuse, and clients are abusers So doesn't that make the Government abusers of military personal But I have nothing but the utmost respect for all men and women serving in the military RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
