What is Legitimate Rape? Only During the Vietnam War

What is Legitimate Rape? Only During the Vietnam War

By Kenny Smith, IFS News Writers

MEMPHIS (IFS) - Todd Akin’s must have been one of the soldiers during the Vietnam War in the killing fields.  The Vietcong women of the villages would insert razor blades into their vaginas and that of their young female children, and try to seduce and entice the American soldiers to have sex with them after their men would abandon the village after a fire fight.  It was a subject of many daily meetings with the troops before going out into the fields.

So the question would be, how do you check a female prisoner for such items in her private area by inserting an object to find the razor blades and other objects? 

Without to much imagination on this subject, this was by far, something foreign to servicemen and women in war.  The hidden bombs and guns in the baby beds and carriers was just one of the many dangers of war.

Now, back to Mr. Akin’s remarks of “legitimate rape” can not be answered with any explanation at any level.  Not even the one above from the daily briefings from the war in Vietnam. 

So in the eyes and hands of Mr. Akin, he must have had to be in the fields of Vietnam, where the subject of “legitimate rape” would constitute a search for weapons and “other” things of war.
