message: An unsourced bit about northern Brazil was added.  I killed it, and the edit was reverted.  I have updated the source with the quote.  There is no mention in the rest of the article of a specific region.  I have again removed the text in keeping with wp:NOR, wp:Pillars.

message: Currently the article says  
This is painterly not true. After the English Civil War acts of indemnity were passed. In the case of the final Act of Indemnity of 1660 Paragraph 10 explicitly excludes from a pardon (among other things):
So while killings during the wars if carried out for military reasons were included in the pardon. Rapes of men and women were not. Here is a clear legal case were rape in war was not seen as a crime suitable for a pardon.
I could go into more details, but during the modern era before the 19th century there were clear laws and customs of war and raping civilians was not acceptable under those customs. If you look at the records of the New Model Army Cromwell and other commanders were forever hanging men for what would be considered crimes today such as pillage etc. This was done in part for sound military reasons -- Without discipline an army quickly becomes a rabble that looses its fighting spirit,(see Carpenter 108,109) and wanton destruction of property (and the virtue of women was largely seen as a property issue) is a sure way to get locals to take up arms against you. "Although soldiers occasionally committed murder rape and plunder, such incidents in the New Model Army occured rarely enough to warrent mention in the national press." 
Also the sentence completely misunderstand the relationship between the people of a state and the prince who ruled it during the early modern era. If people did not take up arms then they were not considered to be enemies, because they were not seen as part of a state. If one reads the treaties of the day, wars were fought between states not nation states. Regions and peoples could be swapped and exchanged without any input from the local inhabitants of the region. This did not change until the decelerations by the UN during the second world war. See for example the clauses in Final Act of the Congress of Vienna/Act I for another blatant examples of this see Article 1 of the Paris Peace treaty of 1815.
There was of course the tradition if a city of a fortress refused offers of surrender where it was considered acceptable to loot and rape, after the town fell, but that was a specific exception and very different from what the sentence in the article suggests was the norm for the treatment general civilian populations. See for example the fact that it is notable that John Churchill order the burning an pillaging of German villages shortly before the Battle of Blenheim () which he did for very specific strategic military reasons.

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Sexual slavery's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

message: If you have any concerns of the section about the South Korean comfort women system, please express them here (as opposed to deleting it!).--Imbored2013 (talk) 21:39, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The section does not have any assertion that the system was a form of sexual slavery, rather than official prostitution. Comparing the South Korean system of the early 1950s to the Japanese one of WWII is not enough. A reliable source must be found that says the South Korean system involved sexual slavery.

text: See WP:Verifiability and WP:Original research. Unless WP:Reliable sources make it clear (more so specifically state) that it is sexual slavery, we should not state it as such. If you don't provide WP:Reliable sources to support your assertion on this matter, I will revert you, just like Binksternet did here (with this followup edit), here and here during the WP:Edit war that brewed between you two before you were directed to this talk page.

thread_title:  South Korean comfort women 

message: This article claim that Women from Europe are kidnapped to Saudi Arabia, were they are placed in harems and never heard of again:  I realize that this can simply be waved of as some sort of islamophobia, and I assume there are no confirmation. However, would this be impossible? As for myself, I do not know the truthfulness of the story, but: thinking of the reason to why this would not be possible, does it not sound more naive than the opposite? I do not know, but how much insight is there to the "harems" mentioned in the article, and how realistic is there that a woman taken there would simply be counted as a disappearance in her home country? If it does indeed happen, is there a reason to why this would be discovered at all? It it realistic that this can actually take place practically? I admit to be somewhat shocked. If it is indeed referenced somehow, it should be included in this article. --85.226.42.87 (talk) 23:08, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

message: This seems to focus on historical facts rather than current events. Many of the "current" statistics are 10 or 20 years old, and the article doesn't even refer to Human Trafficking!!! Ludicrous. I'll also note that the article does an extremely poor job at explaining what it is about. Sexual slavery is "slavery for the purpose of sexual exploitation." That hardly helps. I haven't bothered to look up an adequate definition, but I'm sure they're out there. As a start, it is being forced (by physical confinement, threat, or control) to engage in actions which serve to sexually arouse/stimulate and/or satisfy others, including engaging in sexual conduct with them or third parties. My major objections are the data is old and it doesn't link to Human Trafficking.173.189.75.206 (talk) 21:05, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Child pornography, sometimes referred to as 'child abuse images',[13][14][15] refers to images or films depicting sexually explicit activities involving a child. As such, child pornography is a visual record of child sexual abuse.
Child pornography is a video or image showing a child involved in sexual behavior. This is not always a "visual record of child sexual abuse". For example, a 14 year old girl masturbating video taped in Argintina is completely legal and would not be considered child sexual abuse even though it is child pornography. Another example would be a 13 year old girl who has passed puberty in Nayarit, Mexico video taped having sex with a 44 year old male. This is child pornography but legal and consensual behavior in that state in mexico. All child sexual abuse that is video taped is child pornography but not all child pornography is child sexual abuse. This needs to be made clear in the second sentence, "As such, child pornography is a visual record of child sexual abuse." Notice in the first sentence we state "sometimes referred to as 'child abuse images" because it is not always abuse. Boilingorangejuice (talk) 03:44, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
