Not at all...

You want women on subs? fine. Fill a sub with them. But co-ed and your asking for troubles.

Just say it was the gay sailors trying to tape males taking showers.

And they got females by mistake.

not to detract from the real point, but who believes any actual “videotape” was involved?

Yep, must be a big surprise they were only filmed. To put some girls on an underwater ship must be one of the most idiotic idea in a history of naval warfare.

"Incidents like this show we are not where we want to be. This is the stuff we need to flush out to make sure it doesn't happen again," the Navy official told Military.com.

Damn straight. We are going to put an end to this nonsense of men wanting to look at naked women. It's gone on for far too long and must be ended.

The problem wasn't the women. Since when is it OK to violate someone's rights because they are there?

The problem was the men who couldn't (or wouldn't) control themselves.

Being something of a psychic, even 40 years ago I could have predicted that naked young women in their teens and 20s, on a United States Navy submarine at sea, would result in some sort of problem for someone.

Just a big misunderstanding....it was done out of an abundance of precaution to make sure they were qualified to use the facilities properly...

This sounds suspiciously heterosexual. I thought we had transitioned to a proud all-homosexual navy.

OKAY, what is your solution? Are you suggesting to draft only homosexual boys for submarine service or what?

I think you got it right. What you have said is actually a primary reason why these minor incidents got such a publicity.
