I strongly suspect they ignore the fact that many if not most of these whores were forced/coerced into prostitution due to circumstances beyond their control.

In high school, I had a summer job with a man who had served in the Pacific in World War II.

He told me this:

"When we defeated the Japanese, we found that they had prostitutes to service their men; so we got them too. Some of those girls were nice looking."

I do not think for a minute that he realized that they had been pressed into prostitution. He was a very good man, and I think he had assumed that it was all part of Japanese culture and that the women were Japanese and had volunteered for prostitution.

In high school, it didn't occur to me to question him or this experience. It was years later, when I learned how the Japanese had forced captured Korean, Chinese, and other women into prostitution that I began to understand.

Germans and Japanese certainly forced women in controlled regions to become “comfort women”.

Prostitution was rampant during the American Civil War as well. I recall a talk by one Civil War historian who had looked into the subject. His claim was that the average life expectancy of a prostitute was five years. I don't know the source of the claim, but the women were generally dead-enders before they turned to prostitution as a last resort. They were desperately poor, often malnourished and in ill health before getting into the business, and typically alcoholic. There would have been a high class end of the business as well, but the norm was pretty grim.

Part of the Fall was Carnal Knowledge. It became part of the male nature to claim it’s his natural right to have a woman.

For how all the men talk about ‘women who are gold diggers,’ there is very little of them who will claim to be open ‘whore hounds,’ without admitting it was all about themselves. Very few will admit to having no thought to who they were purchasing, renting, buying...however one wants to phrase it.

Being a virgin, being a non-virgin, really didn’t matter when the bullet found you or you died from the battlefield wounds.

Still, it must have come to a bad end for so many of the men who went home only to pass the disease to their wives, girlfriends, mistresses, not to mention possible off spring. And then the lingering death that came later.

It was a bad end, all around.

If Lefties are the ones promoting the prostitutes why is it often the Righties who will procure whores when they attend conferences or meetings out of town? It’s an old (terrible) joke about how Sex-Per-View channels do a rollicking business when Christian Males have a big get conference.

I’m not saying the Lefties don’t partake. They do. It’s the shameful fact that the Righties are just as bad and are so hypocritical about it.
