64. how about we get rid of the men in combat troops?

After all, they're the ones apparently so stupid they're shelling out hundreds of dollars for sex. That would also solve this massive prostitution "problem". Funny how when it comes to prostitution it's only the supply side that gets disciplined and called whores while nothing happens to the demand side. And without the demand side there would be no supply side.

You're worried about catching a sexually transmitted disease just because some women you dated was dating a few other guys? Uh... how about all the women you've been with since you've been sexually active, and how is it that you missed that for the past few decades condoms are all the rage for prevention of sexually transmitted diseases?

Just why is it that despite evidence and statistics of rampant sexual assault in our armed services (that the higher ups have systematically pretended doesn't exist not to mention the transfers, demotions, and forced discharges meted out to the women who have had the "nerve" to make the claims while the accused don't even get investigated) that you believe these supposed hookers in our armed services always cry rape if they wind up pregnant? Is there some reason they wouldn't just say they got pregnant by some other soldier they were having sex with? Is there some reason they have to identify which soldier got them pregnant even when they can't due to having multiple partners who either paid for the sex or didn't? You really think that any female prostitute wouldn't be using birth control and these soldier buyers wouldn't think of it either?

What a piece of crap post along with your first one that has fuck-all to do with the OP anyway. Clearly you seem to believe that women who sell sex are evil while there's nothing wrong with the men who buy it, that this alleged rampant prostitution in the armed services is all the fault of the women selling it while nothing at all is wrong with the men buying it, and if they were having sex with multiple women they'd be high-fived while women doing the same are scorned, and this ridiculous accusation of all these alleged pregnant female prostitutes falsely crying rape for no legitimate reason whatsoever.

And yes, I think you hate women for having anywhere near as much sex as a men, believe it's all their own fault when they get pregnant and that women are always falsely crying rape when they get pregnant while for some bizarre reason are having all this sex without birth control which you also believe is entirely their responsibility and they bloody well better remain disease free so they don't go giving sexually transmitted diseases to all those men that don't think to protect themselves for same, yet somehow have some God given right to boink as many females as possible for which they'll be socially highly rewarded for his prowess and without attempting to protect themselves concerning pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases.

People that think like that aren't liberals or progressive and have no business being here.

Yes, reading the rest does put huge doubt into the assumption the OP made davidpdx May 2014 #7
It is a horrible story, but based on the info available, she may not have even finished MADem May 2014 #8

OK, Doc, so you've definitely ruled out postpartum depression? Brother Buzz May 2014 #5

Yikes! H2O Man May 2014 #29
Yes, and maybe the OP could provide some proof that she WAS sexually assaulted! MoonRiver May 2014 #31
No, the OP couldn't do that, because there's no such evidence. MineralMan May 2014 #47

You used a fetus in the womb for a photo of the child? Why? blm May 2014 #41
The photo is from Telemundo LA 951-Riverside May 2014 #42
No - the photo of the fetus in the womb is not there. Your OP uses a photo op image blm May 2014 #45
It's there look at the first link 951-Riverside May 2014 #48
Doesn't come up when clicked. The other photos do. blm May 2014 #51
They probably removed it from the page sometime after OP grabbed it. stevenleser May 2014 #56
With all the other photos, why grab that to show the 'murdered' children? blm May 2014 #57
Are you referring to the OP or Telemundo? stevenleser May 2014 #58
My money is on postpartum psychosis. Very sad. stevenleser May 2014 #43
