But that would get in the way of an "All hedonism, all the time" approach to life - the one so favored of the Boomers as the standard bearers (and I hate being lumped into the Boomer demographic, frankly) and happily carried by other elites - at least the ones that set the "standards" in the culture.
Ya'd think this would be a feminist issue... but, naaaaaaaaaah.
If I was a Japanese - this is a statistic I would not be happy to be tied to:

If you caught the black syph, at the end of your tour, you would be put on a "special" plane which would deposit you on an unnamed (or unknown) South Pacific island forever and you would be listed as missing in action.
