They also visited both 'secret' prostitutes and official military brothels, and had encounters with women who were forced to trade sex for protection or food. In some areas, they engaged in consensual relations, which sometimes led to applications for marriage permits.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book dispels the myth that military leaders, in adhering to the Nazi ideology of 'race defilement', strictly repressed soldiers' sexuality. Regina M?lh舫ser opens up new perspectives on the complexity of wartime sexual practices beyond the Nazi case by looking at the whole spectrum of heterosexual encounters--forced and consensual, violent and non-violent, commercial and non-commercial. In doing so, she develops a more nuanced understanding of soldiers' sexual behavior and the ways in which military commands assess soldierly sexuality and integrate it into their strategic thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Regina M?lh舫ser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474459080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474459082\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/25\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.84d","brand":"Regina M?lh舫ser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075710120191,"sku":"9781474459082","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0eba4ffc-05bb-4b3e-825d-0ac4e57eea1c.jpg?v=1685460981","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sex-and-the-nazi-soldier-regina-mhlhuser-9781474459082","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
