Men are being slaughtered in war, here's why that's a problem for women

This would be like framing the Holocaust as a tragedy for European gentiles who will now struggle to find doctors, lawyers, jewelry makers, etc.

Gee. Thanks.

Sounds like all those Syrian men need to go back home and take back control of their country... lol

Well, Hillary Clinton was way ahead of MSN, she said this in 1998.

• The experience that you have gone through is in many ways comparable to what happens with domestic violence. Women have always been the primary victims of war. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons in combat. Women often have to flee from the only homes they have ever known. Women are often the refugees from conflict and sometimes, more frequently in today’s warfare, victims. Women are often left with the responsibility, alone, of raising the children. Women are again the victims in crime and domestic violence as well. Throughout our hemisphere we have an epidemic of violence against women, even though there is no longer any organized warfare that puts women in the direct line of combat. But domestic violence is now recognized as being the most pervasive human rights violation in the world. Here in El Salvador, according to the statistics gathered by your government, 1 in 6 women have been sexually assaulted and the number of domestic abuse complaints at just one agency topped 10,000 last year. Between 25 and 50 percent of women throughout Latin America have reportedly been victims of domestic violence.

As an addendum, the UN agrees.

• While some might argue that Clinton was inaccurate in labeling women as the “primary victims of war” (since the majority of military members are male), a resolution adopted by the United Nation Security Council in 2000 arrived at a similar conclusion, stating that “civilians, particularly women and children, account for the vast majority of those adversely affected by armed conflict.”

The content of this article is interesting (I read it all), but I hated the tone. It was basically I hate the tone of articles like this. It's basically "Women have always been the primary victims of war."
