Gunnery Sergeant Axel Foley, as played by Louis Gossett, Jr., in "Officer and a Gentlemen". The Gunny is in the process of berating Sid Worley (David Keith) for calling him "you":
"Where are you from...Oklahoma? Only two things come out of Oklahoma - steers and queers. Which one are you, boy? I don't see no horns on you, so you must be a queer!"

Emil Foley, sorry. Axel was Eddie Murphy and another movie at that.

I haven't watched that movie in a long time. With children and teenagers in the house, I don't like having sex scenes on, and I've torqued down on what I allow myself to watch, too.
I believe I first heard that "steers and queers" line in military school in Claremore circa 1964. Since then, I've heard it about a number of states.
