However, there is still the issue of “good order and discipline” which you are studiously avoiding. Are you afraid to address that issue?

I've addressed it numerous times, but this time, I'll put it to you directly:

To maintain "good order and discipline," do you believe that heterosexual soldiers who admit to having engaged in oral or anal sex with a member of the opposite sex, including, if they are married, their own wives, should be brought up on charges stemming from an Article 125 violation?

If not, why not? How is a straight soldier engaging in a form of sexual contact that is clearly against regulations according to Article 125 any less a breach of good order and discipline?

I beg to differ with your assessment.

Yes, conditional on Article 32 protections being observed and that a solid case for the prosecution can be established. As an item of interest, I hold the same opinion for queers charged under this article.

If not, why not? How is a straight soldier engaging in a form of sexual contact that is clearly against regulations according to Article 125 any less a breach of good order and discipline?

It is no less a breach of good order and discipline and subject to the same sanctions if a solid case can be established.

Now, perhaps, you would care to explain how you deem your questions addressing the “good order and discipline” issue that I challenged you to expound upon.

The topic involves specifically homosexual sex and in general the leftist attempt to normalize it and "homosexualize" society MUCH as you attempt to do with your argumenet which would be better suited to DU.

If you wish to advocate for a homosexual military THEN do so on DU.
