"No that would disrupt people", he said.
And homosexualists grabbing somebody
else's buttocks would not disrupt people,
is that correct, Barney ?

Barney Frank: Straight and Gay Soldiers Must Shower Together, But Not Men and Women Tuesday, December 21, 2010 By Nicholas Ballasy
(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Barney Frank (D.-Mass.) says he agrees with the recommendation of a Department of Defense (DOD) working group that straight and gay military personnel of the same gender should be required to shower together when the repeal of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” law goes into effect.
Frank, however, said Armed Forces personnel of opposite sexes should not shower together.
“What do you think happens in gyms all over America? What do you think happens in the House of Representatives? Of course people shower with homosexuals. What a silly issue. What do you think goes wrong with showering with homosexuals? Do you think the spray makes it catching? I mean people shower with homosexuals in college dormitories, in gyms where people play sports; in gyms elsewhere. It is a complete non-issue. ” Frank told CNSNews.com.
CNSNews.com then asked Frank why he thinks it is a non-issue.
“To accept the principle that homosexuals can’t shower with other people is a degree of discrimination that goes far beyond this. We don’t get ourselves dry cleaned. We tend to take showers when we go to the gym; when we play sports,” he responded.
Rep. Frank continued, “The notion that knowing that someone is gay or lesbian as opposed to knowing that they are gay or lesbian people that have to pretend who they are; that that somehow makes a difference is pretty silly,”
Frank was also asked if he thinks male and female military personnel should be able to shower together.
“No that would disrupt people,” he said.

===========================
Yeah, and he makes he a point to drop the soap a mimunim of three times.
Bet Bawney wants to join . He would put in for shower attendant and soap picker upper.
Just be careful not to drop the soap...
That is my thinking too.
When they shower at the gym, they then LEAVE the gym. They don’t go back to the barracks where they have to sleep in the next bunk over from the person. It IS different.
What is unclear to me is what follows the repeal of DADT. I assume that the gays are not thinking that we go back to the policy in place before DADT.
What is actually needed now is MAMT. Must Ask-Must Tell.
If gays want to serve openly - let’s make sure they do. Then folks can KNOW who they are showering alongside, and more importantly who they are fighting alongside.
Intense physical training remains a "job requirement" long after bootcamp. During my pre-retirement 20 years, I never saw a military gym shower that was anything other than open bay.
To be fair, I don't know about female facilities.
Nobody wants to shower with Barney which is why he is mad. I cannot believe that he still keeps winning elections after allowing his boyfriend to run a brothel out of his house in D.C. Says something about the voters in his district.
I just went home and showered.
what do you think happens in the bath houses in SFO?
One good thing. Barney would be totally uninterested in me.
Running a homosexual brothel is a democrat resume enhancement.
How long will it be before someone sues to that effect? It is discriminatory to have mens/womens/ facilities? And use the fact that homosexuals do not have separate facilities?
Do heterosexual soldiers have any rights at all?
I’m starting my own military themed soap on a rope company.
I think the murder rate will go up in the military.
Doesn’t surprise me... Back in college, boyfriends and girlfriends couldn’t live in the same dorm room. However, they had no problems with letting homosexual lovers live in the same rooms.
