This headline is bad. Very bad.

(That title was sort of a nod to Guardian 452, my beloved Bob, because I have spent the past few days watching ReBoot. But that totally has nothing to do with the following.)

Look at the name of this article:

Japan Today: WWII Chinese sex slaves lose appeal

So, what, they got ugly?

I did a big paper on the Comfort Women (along with other Japanese war crimes and it how it relates to their cultural identity) for my History 4995: East Asia and The Pacific Rim class. That whole issue is fascinating, and a very underlooked part of Japanese history (that Japan would love to sweep under the rug forever).

Thanks for the comment. If the paper is published anywhere, or if you wouldn't mind sending it over, I'd like to read it.
