Your tolerance for this kind of behavior is what led to the Tailhook episode, and the resulting destruction of many aviators' careers.

All it takes is one woman to cry foul, and it's no longer fun and games.

Do stupid stuff and it will eventually catch up with you.

Consensual fun versus non consensual groping isn't a good analogy. Nice try though.

Maybe it would be safer just to lock our troops inside confessionals when they're off duty, so if they think of something sinful they can confess right away?

Nope. It was the rabid hysteria and intolerance of civilians that led to the destruction of many good careers.
