exactly my point if they can be open then they will make remarks, suggestions crude comments and even approach. How is a guy who is straight supposed to deal with another guy who is doing this openly and maybe the officer is even a open homosexual?

How is a guy that is straight supposed to deal with a gay that is in the closet?

You don't think closet gays make passes?

At least if you know which way they lean, you can give them a wide berth.

As to officers, it is the same as a male straight officer having straight females under his command. One sure way to have your military career come to a screeching halt is to try to fraternize with a subordinate under your command.

we all know this is a step for them to say they should be married and get kids. just another step around to further their agenda

My point is that they are ALREADY in the military and have been, legally, since the early 1990's.

My preference is to know so I can be at the other end of the shower room.

If you are in a common military shower full of naked guys, would your preference would be:

A. Know that the naked guy right next to you is gay so you can go to the other end of the room.

B. Not know if the naked guy right next to you is gay so you can wonder.

Unless there’s a rule that all gays must congregate at the east end of shower rooms, this is silly.

Oh, and who says they’re going to advertise their “availability” to the whole squad? You still might not know.

Gay “integration” will be implemented according to a Obama liberal Democrat model. Your relief in knowing who the gays are (so you can avoid them in the showers) will be more than offset by the special privileges and protections accorded to gays, the endless touchy feelly indoctrination sessions you’ll be forced to attend, and the abrupt curtailment of your promotion chances if you don’t enthusiastically get with the program.

one thing I learned in the military and that is you cannot give people a wide berth, their is no privacy what so ever unless you’re an officer or serve in the air force etc

I think some people are missing the point about all of this and not asking the right questions.

we’re talking about men who want to insert their penis into a mans ass a place where crap is to come out of for sexual pleasure
we’re talking about women who wear strap on and pretend their men.

This is not normal and nor should it be accepted in anyway of society. What they need is mental help

The sad part is and what others have pointed out is that we have some folks who have a friend etc who is queer and so they say well they’re alright but they have not really thought of what these people do to each other nor what they want to do with others and now we have some who think this should be open in the military.
why?
because they hear about this and see this on TV in magazines etc and think nothing of it.

as for me wanting to know, well no I do not and if I caught a guy looking at me coming out of the shower or getting to close when in the same sleeping bag then they would know not to do it again , that you can count on.
That is the same for all my friends who have stayed in since I left too, infact like I said earlier i have spoken to some of them about this in the last week or so and I could not even post what they said on here about it.

you think that men want to walk into a bar on base and want to relax only to see two men walk in holding hands and touching each other and then kissing each other in front of us all

hell no we don’t

Well, seems to me this is talk, not of repealing don't-ask-don’t-tell, which would take us back to gays not being allowed to serve, but rather overriding with a new policy. Personally, if you repeal back to gays not serving, I wouldn't have a problem with it. Can gays be patriotic and want to serve? You betcha. So can severe asthmatics, visually impaired, those with food allergies. Sorry. Serving is not a right. It's serious business.
