Not to rip off the guy above me, but I really like the phrase "straw man fallacy."
You were asked if men and women should shower together and you answered no. When asked why you said it was a straw man.
Here's what a freeper in the Navy said:
Yeah nobody ever gives a s**t if something makes us straight guys uncomfortable, we have to just put with being called bigots. You work with gays people, big f-ing deal, after which you can go to your own home and associate with whom ever you wish. The fact that I work, eat, sleep, s**t, shower and shave 24/7 with no privacy when my ship is underway doesn't count for anything with you. Tell me why have to share a berthing compartment with someone who finds men sexual attractive? Don't bring out the old "nobody finds everybody attractive" arguement. Men and women don't find everyone of the opposite sex attractive and yet they berth seperately. Why? Because of the potential for sexual problems. SourceThe obvious answer is the potential for sexual attraction, and potention is being kind. There will be sexual attraction if men and women shower together. The same is true for homosexual men showing with heterosexual men. Do you see the issue here?
