HERE.contain a serious factual error. Comfort woman DOES NOT equal sex slave. Some WERE sex slaves, but that is not to say that they all were. An exerpt: "Imperial Japanese Army first introduced "a system of military sexual slavery" or euphemistically "comfort woman system" for its soldiers in 1932."I suggest: The Imperial Japanese Army first introduced a system of military prostitution euphemistically called the "comfort woman system" for its soldiers in 1932. With increasing frequency until 1945, some women were in fact forced to serve in this system as sex slaves.To say anything else is to distort the facts so much as make the discussion riduculous and unresolvable. It plays right into the hands of those who try deny the sexual slavery practiced by the IJA, because it is easy provable that not ALL comfort women were sex slaves. It makes your publication look ridiculous where I would rather it be seen as reputable. Please correct this. Sincerely,
