* 251 complaints of unacceptable behaviour * Rise in "irresponsible alcohol consumption" * Female trainees "sexually aggressive"

NAVAL commanders have been warned of a rising tide of alcohol-fuelled sex abuse and "sexually aggressive females" at training bases.

As the Navy reels from the HMAS Success allegations, the Herald Sun can reveal that 251 complaints of unacceptable behaviour were made to fleet commanders in the last financial year.

They included 36 sexual offence allegations, 21 claims of sexual harassment, and 23 complaints of "inappropriate workplace relationships", according to documents obtained under Freedom of Information laws.

When I was in the Navy, they set a bunch of us aside to ask us about females in the Navy in wider roles (they had Waves at the time). We told them this very thing will happen. They laughed and dismissed us. OK....

Congratulations Navy, you opened up a can of “stupid”, hope it tasted good!

oh man.

I know gay people that are wonderful folks. I have gay and lesbian family and friends. I love em.

But I have this fear that there is segment, a militant political wing of the homosexual community that would love to turn the military into a bf’ing bath house.

“They haven’t seen “sexually aggressive” yet. Wait until they throw out Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”

I hear the Gay advocates want to change the policy to “Don’t Even GO There, Mary”

The “sexual harrassment” lawsuits are definitely going to take a pretty big bite out of the Defense budget.

>>A problem of sexual aggressive females?<<

They’re immune from any blowback. They use PC to make guys the bad ones but do the same thing and then do the girlie “boo hoo hoo” act.

Our military is in the midst of suicide.

What if this is all just a lie being spread by Navy recruiters?

That’s right. And they ain’t seen “sexually aggressive” until the DemocRATS do away with Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

Words fail to properly convey the warm welcome we received from those Aussie girls. Made me glad our nations are allies.

"Where do I sign up? "

I think the list is kept by Rosie O'donnell, because she's the best looking one of the lot.

I hardly think these women are of "Playboy" vintage...more like "women in prison" vintage.

You go ahead and sign up, I'll pass.
