Same-sex Navy couple faces backlash for re-creating iconic WWII kiss.....

A military couple reenacted the classic WW II kiss between a sailor and a nurse after a seven-month deployment.

On Dec. 21, sailor Bryan Woodington, 33, stepped off the USS The Sullivans at Naval Station Mayport in Jacksonville, Fla., eager to greet Kenneth, his husband of one year. According to News 4 Jax, Bryan was one of 300 sailors returning to their families after seven months in the Persian Gulf and Europe.

“When I saw Bryan, I lost all control and ran over to him,” Kenneth, 30, a special education teacher, tells Yahoo Lifestyle.

The couple won a lottery to perform the ceremonial first kiss, a naval tradition that allows one lucky sailor to disembark first and greet his or her loved one (in 2011, two female sailors were reportedly the first same-sex couple to win).

I’ve lost count of things I’ve read the past two decades that have made my skin crawl.

Only Humans were given the gift of a frontal lobe capable of reigning in the reward/feel good part of the brain when it got out of control.

It just seems no one wants to use it anymore.

And MAN oh MAN what some people consider “feels good” scared the heck out of me.

Barf! Why is there a “lottery” for a kiss? What US Navy ship has a special viewing of a couple kissing? Liberty call used to be for all members of ships company.

“Tolerance” rears its ugly face again. It was never about “tolerance.” It was about acceptance of their immoral lifestyle. How dare you tell us we are immoral!

Sociological test for promoting a society:

Place 50 homosexual couples of age 25 on a deserted island with infinite resources and come back in 100 years, and what do you find?

A Desert Island.

Of course these pigs would have sold out to Hitler and Tojo in a heartbeat.

But let's not quibble over details.

Rigged. Now we know why our Navy cannot navigate a shipping lane in a destroyer.

A real backlash would be if one dropped anchor in the other’s rear - in public.

Wasn’t tip - it was Patrick Daniel Moynihan, I believe. But, yet, it is deviancy no matter who said it.

It was also a time when my memory had 22 years stored and not 50 :(

I should know. He was a NY senator, I believe.

“Tolerance” is not about acceptance. Conservatives accept homosexuals and the sinful life they lead - inasmuch as the vast majority do not call for their extermination. The Bible tells us people will go to hell. “Tolerance,” as used by the militant homosexual lobby, really means “approval.” Which they will never get from me.

Wow, two same-sex partners in fake marriages won the lottery to perform the ceremonial first kiss in the space of eight years? What are the odds!
