SEOUL, Nov 23 (Reuters) - A South Korean appellate court on Thursday ordered Japan to compensate a group of 16 women who were forced to work in Japanese wartime brothels, overturning a lower court ruling that dismissed the case and prompting a stern protest from Tokyo.

    What source are you looking for? That comfort women refers to women forced into sexual slavery for the Japanese military during the first half of the 20th century? That’s just the definition of the word. I’m not sure what you’re asking for.

      “comfort women”… are very specific sex slaves

      That Japanese people recognize them as sex slaves. The government, media and commoners.

      This means that I want a FORMAL source from the government. And news articles explicitly stating this. And some scholarly articles that analyze the perception among the commoners.

      No god-damn Wikipedia.

      If I don’t reply the next time, regard it a failure on your side.

        Jesus Christ what a level of pedantry is this… I’m not engaging with this kind of bullshit, so go ahead and regard it as “a failure on my side.”

        Fucking trolls wasting everyone’s time and poisoning every discussion…

            I made no argument. There’s nothing to source.

            You’re trying to start a kindergarten-level fight and I’m not interested in engaging in that kind of behavior. I’m here for discussion, not pedantry.

            Go waste someone else’s time with your trolling.
