  her silence and emotion before she said that she was raped tells that up until now, even reaching that age, she was still in deep misery because of what happened to her. damn that must’ve felt hellish.

  "I was ashamed that I was raped by the Japanese." Words can't describe the sadness I feel from hearing this.

  I hope Asian Boss would put Japanese subtitles so Japanese people would get to learn what really happened during the WW2

  As a Filipino myself, i hate the kids of the comfort women who refused to accept what hapoened to their mothers.

  My grandmother lived through this. She used to tell me how she would hide in the woods when the japanese came.

  Words cannot express how BRAVE this beautiful lady is or how inspiring her story, and the story of others like her, is. She suffered horrors that are unimaginable to most modern women, particularly western women, but she survived and even thrived. How many of us would be that brave? I am not sure I could be. So, I challenge us all, when times are hard and we feel the strain, that we remember the stories of this amazing generation from all around the globe, and how many with perseverance stood up to tyranny and won. We owe them a debt for the things we have today. I intend, in part, to repay that debt, to remember the horrors these ladies survived and do my best to not let it return. We WILL remember you!!!

  I didn&apos;t tell my father about it.<br>Why?<br>Because he&apos;s a man.<br><br><br>Imagine the trauma. The pain. The fear.

  It breaks my heart that the children of some of these women who were raped and abused could not accept their own mother when they found out about it. That they would rather have their mothers stay silent to avoid criticism. They were victims. They did nothing wrong.

  This is so upsetting. I am from Okinawa, Japan and we learned about this in school. Unfortunately, most Japanese schools don’t talk about it, because they want to forget. But we can never forget, Imperial Japan hurt everyone in Asia, not just the people inside Japan. I am sorry for my ancestors and what they did to innocent people.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7FXmsLBqNI&amp;t=477">7:57</a> Philippines has this weird ongoing vision that if you were a rape victim, it is your fault. It disgust me honestly.<br><br>Thank you for covering this story. It must be so painful to retell every single detail. This is heartbreaking.
