If Japan was a defendant in a courtroom it would be reason to hold it innocent until proven guilty, but that standard doesn't apply in most other situations.

Also even if a majority of "comfort women" where not forced in to it, it seems that at least a minority where. Even in a criminal trial, you could get a pretty harsh sentence if you where charged with 20 serious crimes but found guilty of only 2.

Taro, > Is there evidence that it was true for a majority?

There is a mountain of evidence pointing to the fact that "comfort women" were forced into their roles against their will.

What evidence do you have that the majority of "comfort women" were willing participants?

Sounds like the rapist's defense. "She wanted it."
