Thanks IbJensen.
...not only repeals the military law on sodomy, it also repeals the military ban on sex with animals--or bestiality.
That's gotta be good news for sailors about to cross the Equator for the first time aboard a USN vessel.

Why are these galoshes oversized? How did that goat get aboard?

Excuse me for mangling an old joke.

Soldier Bahney Fwank is deployed in a remote region of Afghanistan, along with some friendly Afghan soldiers. Being bored, he asks the natives what they do for “recreation and fun”, “wink, wink”. The native guy Ahmed points to their horse and says all the guys use her. Next day, Bahney tells the Afghan “thanks, but your horse sure put up a fight when I had my way with her!”. Ahmed says in shock “But sir, the guys ride the horse to the next town where the women are!”.

Assuming that the Uniform Code of Military Justice still has a provision barring adultery (which the article implies), chances are that it only refers to “carnal knowledge” or “sexual intercourse” (as is the case in most adultery laws in jurisdictions that had separate sodomy statutes, since sodomy, whether adulterous or otherwise, was already proscribed), and thus a married soldier who has sexual intercourse with someone other than his or her spouse would violate the Code (and could be prosecuted) but one who has anal or oral sex with someone other than his or her spouse would not violate any provision in the Code.

Even more worrisome, rape laws in
jurisdictions with a separate sodomy statute were usually limited to forcible “sexual intercourse” or to “sexual intercourse” with someone below the age of consent, which excluded non-consensual sodomy from its reach, since all sodomy (consensual or not) was banned by the separate sodomy statute. Congress needs to make damn sure that repealing the prohibition on sodomy from the Uniform Code of Military Justice does not mean that a soldier would be violating the Code when he rapes a woman through vaginal penetration but not through anal penetration (sorry to be so graphic, but rape laws have traditionally banned only the former, since the latter was banned by sodomy statutes).

And removing the ban on bestiality? They couldn’t have given Rick Santorum a greater gift: Santorum was widely ridiculed by the media, and ended up losing his Senate seat, because he pointed out that the U.S. Supreme Court’s creation of a theretofore unknown “constitutional right” to homosexual sodomy would open the door to striking down laws banning bestiality. That the Senate struck down the military ban on bestiality when it rescinded the prohibition on sodomy is too rich.

People voting for this are doing what the American people want. Polls showed 75 percent favored homosexuality in the armed forces. It’s all in the name of “sexual freedom”, a major consideration to our little voters.

The Senate vote was 93-7. Democrats Harkin (IA), Merkley & Wyden (OR) joined Socialist Bernie Sanders (VT) in voting AGAINST this bill. What part of the story is being left out?
Access? Shouldn’t be hard with 97 from which to pick!
