Their story outside of the brothel was a life of patriotic sacrificing to volunteer their time, mind, and body for our country. In turn, the women were abused and treated inhumanly as their basic rights were taken from them. This paper follows the story of Jean O'Hara as she courageously stood up against the brutal police vice squad. 2 “Patriotutes” of Hotel Street: The Untold Story of Jean O’Hara, The Honolulu Harlot “I am not going to attempt to excuse myself for the kind of life I have led. I shall tell you the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, and when you have finished reading this book, dear reader, a wave of nausea will engulf you.” – Jean O’Hara in her expose “Honolulu Harlot” page 15 “Because of the complexity of such issues, providing sexualized services for the military was open to misinterpretation and often stigmatized the providers and left them vulnerable to legal charges.
