The society seem to be silently leading its people to ruin, only to turn back and scream murder whenever something goes wrong. It seems every advert glorifies sex ans porn, while so called celebrities play the sex game like it is the most natural thing to be wantonly promiscuous. Let parents do their work with the backing of society. Perhaps our younger generation may survive.

]]> Comment on Military Women and PTSD by Cynthia Koehler http://www.womenspress-slo.org/?p=1544&cpage=1#comment-8249 Cynthia Koehler Tue, 15 Jun 2010 06:20:21 +0000 http://www.womenspress-slo.org/?p=1544#comment-8249 I was in service during the Vietnam Conflict and I was raped repeatedly and reported it to my superiors along with all the beatings that I sustained. Nothing was ever done because it cost a lot more to train a "flying member" of the USAF than a ground member, so I was told to get out of the USAF under hardship conditions because I had children at the time and it was my husband who was doing all the "abuse." He almost killed my youngest son prior to his birth and just afterwards. He was a sorry excuse for a husband and father. I was considered disposable at the time. All the abuse that I suffered was ignored as your statistics reflect. I did not know that I was suffering from PTSD when I returned to the USAF 1 year later. The abuse continued in my workplace and with a new husband. I reported this one too. I guess I did not report it to the proper individual--HIS commander. Colonel "Dad" would have had his throat for harming me. His commander lived down the street from us. SSgt Cynthia A. Koehler Now Dr. Cynthia A.

I've always though of having a 'walking buddy' but didn't realize the overall impact on the quality of life it can have. I think I will make it a much higher priority now. Thanks Sheila!

It is sad to see but it seems to be a losing battle for the abstinence camp.

After the incident with the ESPN reporter, every hotel room door should have a peep hole cover. They are inexpensive (example www.secureguest.net) and quality hotels are providing this basic security feature. Does your hotel have peep hole covers?
