I found this pretty interesting also, as an exposition of the culture in which soldiers are trained. However, it's unattributed so I don't know how much to believe.
I think it is a good article, but I am a little troubled by the comparison with porn. In BDSM terms - this was the complete antithesis of "safe, sane and consensual". I like her refutation of the HORRIBLE Andrea Dworkin, though. And I have never thought women were inherently sweet and nice and incapable of the same violence men are capable of.
