Default Gays in the army

The army has a rule about no gays in the army, they also have a dont ask dont tell policy, Well here is a taste less comment but funny i think. If i chose to be in the army i would want to worry about the guy infront of me, not the one behind me. But if they want to deffend there nation i dont see why they shouldnt, but if they should the others whould know there statuse because there are some homophobs and also i wouldnt wanna shower with one. Just cause... i mean im not sexest i just dont want a guy checking me out.

DUDE....where do you come up with this shit???

Look if someone is Gay and they want to defend there country then so be it! I assume the last thing a solider is worried about is "if their fellow solider is gay... even a so called "homophob"!!!!
As goes for showering with one... odds are you most likey already have, in some shower at a health club or school and not even noticed it!!!!
I by no means gay. I am about as straight as they come! There is only one thing in life better then the vagina....tat's new vagina!
As you start to get older and be around a lot of people you will most likely be hit on by both sexes!!! It's just a way of life now (sad) but it is. Now I don't know where you live, but I have lived in several big cities and experianced first hand in front of my own wife! I'll tell you what, most of the time it has fucked up my night, no matter who hits on me or my wife.
And now I hear there trying to make it seem normal in schools around the country about "my 2 daddies or mommies" !!! WTF
Try explaning that to a 6 or 9 year old!!!
my 2 cents

LMAO!!! Amen to that brother.

On the subject of gays in the Army. Like it or not they are a cross section of America. They enjoy the freedoms of America just like the rest of us so when it comes to defending those freedoms they should be eligible for war just like the rest of us.

If I had a gay guy in my platoon I would take advantage of his talents and put him in charge of full body cavity searches for everyone that we captured.

Having been in the army i have no problems with gays in the military. I have no problems with anyone in the military as long as you get the job done. I do understand the don't ask don't tell policy. If is for the safety of the individual and for the safety of the team. Most males in the army can't stand gay men. So you are protecting the individual cuz he would get hurt if people found out. You are protecting the team in battle cuz guys might be worried about the gay person instead of the enemy.

Lightbulb Gay G.I's

Homosexuals constitute about 3% of America's population and the majority are male. Naturally, some may want to join the military. That's fine but a problem arises (forgive the pun) when the gay military man becomes interested in another military man - and the other man is hetrosexual. As most military enlistees are between 18 - 22 years old and at their most virile, many are repulsed by homosexuals and become enraged at any attempt by a homosexual to approach them, sexually. The possibility of fights and hard feelings stemming from the gay-straight divide are a real possibility and this leads to a breakdown of military discipline, which is something no military unit can afford, especially now.

Experience has also shown that when you combine young male and female soldiers and sailors, as has happened, jealousies, fights and many pregnancies result, especially shipboard. None of this is good for the services or the individuals involved and a nightmare for officers to deal with, I would assume. This is why the 'No ask, no tell' policy was implemented: to allow homosexuals to join the service. I'm certain many have served with honor and never had an 'incident' but homosexual young men living in the midst of young and virile straight men, often in close quarters, is a breeding ground for trouble. It's fine to be open-minded and tolerant of homosexuals, as many are, but when you're 19 and some gay man in your barracks makes unwanted sexual overtures, that tolerance can evaporate in a moment. Add to that the fact that not every soldier or sailor comes into the service with the same high tolerance of homosexuals others may exhibit and you have the added problem of that latent hostility toward homosexuals just waiting to explode.

While that personal failing isn't a clear reason to bar homosexuals who want to serve from entering military service, the whole concept of the military placing young gay men among young straight men has always seemed somewhat foolish, to me. Same with mixing males and females in close proximity. We already know about the sexual harrassment and rapes some female military personnel have endured, a testament to the problems inherent in mixing people who may be sexually attracted to each other in a military setting. That noted, I doubt all that many homosexual men or women are rushing to enlist, anyway and so far, the 'no ask, no tell' policy seems to be working. It's still a compromise but the best we have for the time being.

Hey and don't forget the rapes and sexual harrasment situations that arise that create very difficult situations when men and women soliders, sailors and airforce get drunk together. I think hard partying is still a part of the military. It was when I was in there.

I have been in uniform (until just two months ago) for a total of 18 years if you count college ROTC, Active Duty (Navy), and Reserves (Navy & Army). As you can see, I have served in two branches.

So, consider this. When you have a unit of all men at work, the office, or a platoon, the unit will develop a unity and a bond. They will generally look out for eachother and become more interested in the goals of the team than the individual. Anyone who has ever played Foot Ball knows what I am talking about.

When you put one women in the picture, the entire chemistry changes. The men begin to compete and the unit loses focus and direction. They begin to become more interested in themselves then in the unit. I believe that a known homosexual creates this same type of situation.

We we make decisions about the military, we need to ensure that these decisions will improve our rediness....THAT IS THE #1 GOAL. If you believe that gays do this, then let them in. If not, then well, you know where I stand.
