Yup.
KOCHANSKI Well, thanks to Kill Crazy, that was the least enjoyable suicide mission I've ever been on.
KILL CRAZY I was standing there, right, and right in fron of me was this weird sort of mutant thing, with, like, two heads and all these tenticles. Yeah; it took one look at me and then ran off! Why d'you think it done that?
KRYTEN You don't know what it's like, being classified as a woman, sir. The humiliation.
LISTER I know, I know.
KRYTEN I mean, why should I - a Series 4000 mechanoid - have to endure the turgid monotony of showering with the girls? Three times a week! Tell me that!
LISTER It's not fair, I know! It's just that - You shower with the girls?
KRYTEN Oh! It's so hideously dull I can't describe it, as they stand around soaping themselves. Their bodies all wet and foamy. Can you imagine it? Oh my goodness, we've been frozen in time again! Hello? Extraordinary! It must be a warp in the time-space continuum! How curious it isn't affecting me...
RIMMER We're not frozen in time, Krytie - we were just thinking about what you were saying...
HOLLY It's time like this that make me thankful I'm just a head.
KILL CRAZY Oi, droid-boy, oi; next time you're in the showers, why don't you - y'know - smuggle in a camera and film 'em, eh? Yeah, that'd be brilliant! Oi, I haven't seeen a naked woman since... well, ever. Yeah, I'd pay you... wha'd'ya say?
RIMMER No, I forbid it!
LISTER Yeah, me - What?
RIMMER It's voyeuristic, exploitative, and immature.
HOLLY All right, who are you? And what have you done with *our* Rimmer?
RIMMER Gentlemen, allow me to clairify my position. Morally speaking, using a hidden camera in the women's showers, taking shots of them sudding themselves with mounds of foam, without their permission, morally speaking - I'm speaking morally, here - I'm all in favour! However, Listy has been invited to appeal and a scam like this could ruin it.
CAT Appeal?
LISTER Yeah, I'm appealing.
HOLLY That's a minority view.
RIMMER Look, if he's successful, we can all be successful. We've just got to be model prisoners.
KILL CRAZY Screw his appeal! I wanna see skin!
CAT Yeah! Wha'd'ya say, bird-tray head?
KRYTEN Are you asking me to betray the people I live with? To ignore their humanity and reduce them to mindless sex objects, merely there for your moronic titilation?
CAT Yes, please!
Why don’t they all take showers together and there won’t be any of these problems?
After all, they are all in the same boat.
One more time, American people: WHY ARE FEMALES ABOARD SUBMARINES!?!?
Females don’t belong aboard subs any more than they do in the Marine Corps infantry, armor, or artillery. They don’t belong in SWCCs or SEALs or Force Recon or NECCs, either.
There are some jobs that are, by virtue of their very nature, not suitable. That most men cannot complete the selection courses as they are now should tell people something about the difficulties.
On my first ship the lesbians in the deck division (aka dyke division) would have been the culprits.
I was in Army Field Artillery for 6 years, never saw a woman but wished I had..:-)
LOL, Thanks FRiend, TMI...:-)
Served on destroyers. No women aboard ship in those days. No homos either.
You would but believe the harassment I suffered from those “women.”
LOL, wasn’t that from “Porkys”?
Yes, and filmed at gator’s old high school ;)
Their casualties were similarly bad in WWII. We and the Brits got pretty good at anti-submarine warfare pretty fast.
UP! Periscope!
Actually the Damage Control training facility in Groton was a lot of fun. Running around getting soaked by freezing cold water trying to repair leaks even though terribly cold was fun.
Having read a lot of post here with negative feelings about us bubbleheads is kind of distressing.
I didn’t mean to imply submariners didn’t enjoy the training. I just doubt most women could meet the traditional standards.
Also, I’ve no problems with submariners or any other niche within our nations Armed Forces; thank you for your service my friend!
