Well, You have not served! It is not comfortable to serve in the when You have someone beside You who can develop feeling for You. The point of military is isolation - all the training and being with You team, it's more like friendship or brotherhood, but when one person no really into the brother thing, then it's a BIG distraction. It's like being in one room with a girl that really likes You and You don't like Her at all, is hard to both of You. Any distraction is a RISK and risk is very bad!!
Just a question, is that India dot on your forehead? lol, j/k
Also I just wanted to say that technically there IS one thing gay people can't do that straight people can do and that is straight people can have sex with the opposite sex and enjoy it. Which gay people cannot. Just a fact.
if one is aware that there are gays in ones squad that person would be uncomfortable and therefore his performance on the field would diminish and the treatment towards gays would be worse since everyone would know who is and who is not.
The only thing I can see straight guys in the military disliking it might be the awkwardness of a gay man flirting with a straight man. Just a thought. Also I'm not one of those people who shun gays.
Ok i'm just going to toss some beans out there for all the little cryin POGs and Boots to feed on. I'm enlisted, Active, and just got back from my second tour in the sandbox 4 months ago. Got a problem with people you serve with despite the fact they're getting the job done? Talk to your chaplans and CO's they can help transfer you someplace they don't have to put up with you. Dont like that option? Fist fight with some MPs and spend the rest of your enlistment in a cell you dont have to share.
Ok. I am in the Army. By all rights, Don't Ask Don't Tell does need to die. However, this can be a bit tricky, especially for the guys. There are plenty of women that openly serve, it's just that most people don't really care. Guys are different. I am a pretty metro-sexual dude and I get a lot of crap. Being openly gay can put you at risk, namely the threat of being beaten up by ignorant homophobic backwood boneheads. Deploying with communal showers and tents, you get the idea.
@helidelorean yes and when you take into account twice the barracks, tents, bathrooms, locker rooms, as well as a big ole can of worms when it comes to sexual harassment/discrimination... and like you said not to mention people just beating them up and stuff. it will cost lots and lots of money, portrays weakness to the enemies of our country, and undermines unit cohesion. i hope it goes smoothly and without all these things, but the truth is it wont.
no straight guy is going to want to shower with, or bunk with, or room with another dude that happens to be gay. and in situations where the hetero is just paranoid about the whole situation... it can be bad even if the gay dude does absolutely nothing wrong. just by being there. so i say fuckit, let don't ask don't tell stay forever.... there are gay people in the military now so getting rid of it doesn't improve ANYTHING.... just opens a huge can of worms. all negative... no positive....
@wlchambers Gay people aren't rapists, nor are they any more promiscuous than straight guys. If people were grown up about it, there's nothing wrong with gay people and straight people living together. And the face that now homosexuals don't have to hide who they are if they want, which keeping that kinda secret can and does screw with a lot of people, getting into this endless loop of thinking telling people would be really bad, they'd hate you and never being able to tell them for it.
@51mfeticFox I agree with you 100%. however most people wont grow up. most people will not act mature and actually put opinion aside and make a rational logical decision about it.....it just wont happen for the majority of us......there are ALREADY gays in the military....and im sure some are great soldiers and sailors..... however letting people display it will inevitably cause problems.....you can't avoid it. and it doesn't need to be implemented when we're all sticking out noses in (cont)
@51mfeticFox sticking out noses in every damn war that happens....everywhere.... you need to be strong.... and a tight nit small units....implementing this should really be done during time of peace (which doesn't seem to exist anymore) and its gonna cause some problems in terms of money and unit cohesiveness
@wlchambers ...I kinda agree, but it's not like we're being forced to tell (I am gay btw, I get a bit defensive, sorry if my comment seemed like a personal attack XD) as long as everyone is sensible, if it wouldn't work out well to tell, then don't tell, and if he does tell and you don't feel comfortable, put up and shut up, and all that good stuff, it would work fine. Then again, since when has anything ever worked out 100% fine *yay*
@51mfeticFox and just a little FYI..... I would rather be in a foxhole with a gay dude thats physically fit, clear minded, and a good soldier than a straight guy who is not.....i think almost everyone would agree with me on that.
@wlchambers However, if you had a good unit, that were accepting and stuff, I believe being able to tell, to share your secrets with the people you're fighting with day in, day out, that could help bring the group together. It's just a shame it's more likely to break the group apart in modern day society...
@wlchambers As the world grows up and accepts their reality, gay rights being addressed will be a more common thing, and atm, we need to balance the change and the acceptance from people, and it won't be for a looooong time untill it's perfectly incorporated into modern day society, but any steps towards that are... steps towards that. It's gonna be a long, bumpy ride. I mean, there's still racism, hell, even sexism in our society today. This isn't going to be perfect in our lifetime I think.
well, i dont think people should be gay, nor do i understand why they would want to be. however, i am not so stupid as to think that it can be stopped. i agree that they should have normal rights just as anyone else because they are in fact human and should b treated as such. i am a christian and do not think that gays should be gay but at the same time its my job as a christian to love them as a brother in Christ and show them the love of my Lord the best i can. :)
I was so happy wen dont ask dont tell got repealed, even though it dousnt effect me directly coz im nt american and i dont plan on joining the army,it was a step forward for the LGBT (LGBTQ/LGBTQI) community. And i loved obama's speach on it althought i dont think the we are 1 thing worked very well.
@usaf317 Dan calls this a community and i dont meen like people living together, just means a group of people with a simularity, like the black community. think u need to start working out words have more than one meaning
@usaf317 im not acting like am smarter than anybody else and dont genralise, you dont want it to become you. And i dont wanna assume you are calling gays and lesbians animals,but it seem like it, so are you?
The three hundred Spartans who defended democracy from the Persian advances were mostly gay, by many accounts from soldiers themselves and from spies, who watched them 'bathe' each other erotically. The report mentions many scented oils, etc. I say that if 300 gay men can (with help of 1,000 Thespians and 3,000 Athenians, who didn't actually do much fighting) fight off the largest army the ancient world has ever seen for three days and continue to fight to their last breath, they can serve now.
@xhado123 is that a real story lol? i thought it was a film but i dont think they were worried about being called gay in them days which is why they wudnt mind to bathe with other men, but sounds like fun to me xD
gays and lesbians are different and its proven by science Hypothalamus part of there brain is different i am a strong supporter of american military and heavily consider going into it when i become of age but having gays in our military is completely (in my eyes) unconstitutional and is a complete disgrace to our founding fathers. allowing gays to serve in the military was one of the many mistakes Rome made and as they say history repeats itself, i have read many books on this and we are making
Your pleading allegiance to the flag of the United States, not the Divided States. Don't ask, don't tell goes against the very word freedom. There's nothing free to be ashamed of who you are when you're risking your life for the country.
@crysanthemumcoalmine well first of the constitution is up to interpitation because of lack on its views on sexual orientation. but this country was made from men with wives not men with "significant others" now being the true patriot that i am i really dont care what you reply to this ut be assured that i would die for your right to think that way. you see thats a true patriot a man wearing a mans uniform not a womens
@NikkiBoom1 ...it wasn't really subliminal. If you'll notice, he was speaking of the fact that the rubik's cube is a one person game, aka, you play it alone. Ergo, the 'forever alone' face.
i dissagree with the everything gay and think that the idea just shouldnt exist.but becouse of the rights of people they should be able to do anything that straight people can. and while i am against it i am also against the color ornge it just shouldnt be taken away.becouse i think so.
I'm actually asking, "Do you really have that much cash to fling around that your too lazy to grab one of your 15 other Rubik's cubes in the box behind you?"
Of coarse you support the repeal of don't ask don't tell your not in the military and it docent affect you. you don't have to worry about being roomed with a queer. I love how people have such strong political views on topics that have no relevance on them selves. you probably supported the bail out of millionaires, while the lower and middle classes where losing there jobs and houses too didn't you?
@EpicAwesomeZombies It dose apply to me, we have to live under tighter rules and living conditions know. and we have to watch what we say so we don't "offend" :0 no one with our comments. why don't you grow some balls, get a life, join the military and move out of your Mom's house
@tacsling Oh no! rooming with a queer! what if they....touch u inappropriately! Gasp!
.....although i highly doubt that. If u don't want to room with a queer...don't join the military... actually if u don't want to interact with gay people at all u may as well stay home.
@fluffofnine i am in the military and i ignor gay people. ..they are dirty and i dont respect or trust them. i have been deployed several times and in that environment...well, those people are on there own.
Of coarse you support the repeal of don't ask don't tell your not in the military and it docent affect you. you don't have to worry about being roomed with a queer.

Countries that allow gays to serve openly in the military. If you think gays are gonna make us look back you should rethink your position. Albania Argentina Australia Austria Belgium Canada Republic of China Colombia Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Republic of Ireland Israel Italy Japan Lithuania Luxembourg Malta The Netherlands New Zealand Norway Peru Philippines Poland Romania Russia Serbia Slovenia South Africa Spain Sweden Switzerland Thailand United Kingdom
@alliteration1247 and notice half of those country's aren't in their prime any more because of caring that they are gona offend someone what happened to caring about our country before shipping thousands of dollars in food to ship to another country we need to fix our own problems before we fix other peoples
I look at it this way : GREAT, but still... In some states, and in some canadian provinces, being gay is still considered an illness by the government. What good is it that gays can tell us they're gay before they go get themselves blown up for people they don't know ? I can't be happy about that, because I hate that governments spend so much on war. If it is good for gay rights, it isn't necessarily good for human rights, because the military, whatever one might say, is still all about war...
@Jellyhag02 where in canada is homosexuality considered an illness by the government?! I live in canada, and I've been to all of our provinces, and walked in gay pride parades and been to gay bars. gays can serve openely, they can work anywhere, go to any school, and do anything that straights can, encluding marry, and no one can say shit! if you try and restrict the rights of a lgbtq individual, you'll get hit up with discrimination charges
@outfitmadeofawesome In everyday life, that's how it is, I grant you this. But In legislation, old decrees and old laws sometimes clearly state that being gay is an illness. But then again, the Canadian constitution opens with "Considering the Supremacy of God as the basis of Canadian society"... Which is also not so true anymore... And BTW, I'm canadian, too...
Well I totally agree on you. I wrote a 30 pages long text for school about homosexuality and I .. while I was doing research, I really had to laugh sometimes. I mean in what kind of society do we live?! It just can't be normal that we hate other people just because they are different from what we used to know. Come on, every man is allowed to kiss -theoretically spoken- over one million women, but he's not allowed to kiss one single man? You can't be serious.
I was running out of room in my previous post so I couldn't exactly explain. The bible says that being gay is an abomination, but it (or the one the guy is referring to) also says that a lot of other things are "abominations" these other things, while you're reading, will sound absolutely ridiculous. The point being, that like these, saying being gay is an abomination is ALSO very ridiculous.
I totally agree with you, Dan. There's nothing about being gay that should prevent someone from being in the military. My parents have many gay friends and they are totally normal people, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it and I was so happy to hear that the DADT is being repealed! Btw, for those who are religious and that's why you think being gay is bad, look up "Why Can't I Own a Canadian?" it's a sarcastic letter basically saying that not everything in the bible would make sense today.
@scaryreeper how would that make you look bad? What are people gonna say? "wow look at those stupid americans, supporting basic human rights and equality! wtf!?" seriously. I'm Canadian, i am SO happy that the Don't Ask Don't Tell act was repealed. :)
Why don't you stop flaunting your straightness if you wanna serve? Don't talk about, your wife, girlfriend, kids, etc. fuck your double standard. it's bullshit. x]
@Matt54956 Aw buttholes. That comment was definitely for someone else. Ewwww I looked like a bigotttttt. It was for someone who said that gays should stay in the closet. My response was meant to be something similar to yours. Sorry if I made you mad. I know that bigoted responses make me cringe.
your obese population, your rediculous debt, your strange and unnecessary overspending, your disgustingly conservative government, your discrimination towards your fellow human, your low IQs and your bloated and unhealthy ego.
the US is a joke, and the rest of the worlds just laughs while you ruin the environment, take advantage of the third world and throw your weight around like someones big retarded brother.
it doesnt mean you cant be gay. it was put implace because of incidents regarding troops arguing and discriminating gay troops in the military. Teamwork is so important in the military. so if a bunch of straight guys dont like the gay guy, than there is a teamwork barrier. it is much harder to get all of the straight troops to respect the gay troops, so this policy stated that your sexuality doesnt matter. if a soldier cannot train properly because of harassment, than combat efectivness lacks.
im tired of reading the comments of homophobia it realy sadens me. Its not the gay people that are in the wrong its how the rest of us react to people who are different from ourselves. Its not just homosexuality its every possable thing that can possably be a variable such as colour. When will people learn from past mistakes that everyone is different so stop bitching about it and get on with your own life. Im sure everybody has somthing ridiculeable about themselves. if you dont your in denial
Being gay is just wrong. A lot of the typical people that are social activists will disagree but it's true. It's wrong and is caused by the messed up society that we live in today. Not only should they not be allowed in war, but they should be sent to a mental institute to help them get back to their right state. There will always be people that disagree with gays. Why? Because it it morally, logically, and psychologically wrong. Hopefully our society will change and people will realize truth.
my mom supports gay rights, she accutually took yes on 8 banners off peoples lawns, and replaced them with no on 8 things, we were the only ones in the neiberhood with a no on 8 thing, she acctually still has a no on 8 sticker on her van, she even said she wanted to sware to this other person who had a yes on 8 sticker on his/her car
I'm not against gay people. But the fact is when we deploy, when we're in training, or anything like that, we live TOGETHER. Now we all know that war isn't always exciting, there is down time that you can spend in whatever living arrangement you have. Sometimes you only live you and one other person. Now I don't mean to be a gay party crasher, but I don't want to live with a gay person for the length of my deployment. I also don't want to share a shower with a gay person.
@SFCableUSAF just cause he/she is gay, doesnt mean they wanna like $&@5 you or have some affection for you, and even if they did im sure they realize that it wouldnt happen because they are gay and you are strait... o_o
@skatescirca That's not the point. They don't let me take shower's with women because it makes them uncomfortable. Why? Because I'm going to look at what I like. Gays will too. It's not like they're going to make "gay" facilities. It's too expensive. Have you never met a gay person? They love to make passes toward straight people. So don't say they won't because "they are gay and you are straight".
I'm all for gays serving! But I'm just wondering where they are going to put them when they need to sleep. Are they going to be with the men? Or the woman? Or is there gonna be like a "gay tent" I'm not sure! Because men and woman are not aloud to sleep together but homosexuals sleep with the same sex. Will there just be a bunch of gay love making? If so haha right on! There needs to be more love in this foolish thing we call war
...If they didn't allow gays in the military then why didn't the people who didn't wanna get drafted just say they were gay? lol. I wonder how many times that happens today. haha
ya know the millitary is one of those places where it shouldnt matter, making gays and lezzbians not aloud in the millitary is the same as what they did 50, 60 years ago when u had to be white or if u wernt u were always in the kitchen and what not
My brother is in the Navy and he says the policy is "Don't ask, tell if you want to"...Not trying to cause a fight with anyone just saying that's what my brother has been hearing in the Nazy....
@cheese0134 ouch! That IS some serious typographic error (NaZy). Guess they wouldn't like the comparison... XD. I'm curious as to the intention behind that letter "z". Did you put it there on purpose ? cause it's a nice jab at the way the government of the US is acting
Gay men/women already serve alongside straight men/women in the military and it does not seem to be messing with group dynamics too much. The only thing that would change is that more people will know/tell the truth. There going to be some issues figuring out who is sleeping/showering where, yes, but those people who say that these things cannot be overcome have very little faith in those who serve. They deal with much more complicated problems every day.
i don't think gay should openly serve in the military. i think that having openly gay men serving along side straight men would mess up the group dynamics of the unit. although the idea of having all people serving as one united, sounds great from a civil rights point of view, i think that the proficiency of our military would suffer.
My problem with homosexuals in the military is that:
#1: God's word says that a man is not to be with another man, and women with women.
#2: A homosexual could be a little "distracted" by all the men around them, and there can't be an "affair" with two men while they're out in the field, can there? I find that a little scary.
@WhoWatchesVideos God's word (or man's word passed to us in the Bible) says we should stone to death those who commit adultery or eat seafood. Jesus, reportedly says we should love each other and respect fellow man.
Distraction already takes place with both sexes serving - after DADT the stress of needing to hide ones orientation goes away - the fear and shame disappears - sounds like a win-win situation for everyone to me.
Welcome to the real world, goodbye one extreme social hypocrisy.
@WhoWatchesVideos i see your point here with number two but me myself i'm english and as you probely know the uk is in the war in iraq with the usa and as far as i can see is your point is gay soilders will be distraced and wont be able to protect them self and there squad members but in the uk we allow any lgbt person to serve openly and our millitary works perfectly fine and never had any problems with it so i dont see how it will be diffrent for the US.
@cazbert6 Absolutely agree cazbert6 - phobias are hard to overcome, we will slowly handle homophobia as well.
The US is different because it has too many influential fear-mongers who create widespread phobias where they didn't exist before. It is the reason the US is fighting in Iraq (the UK followed).
Once witches and bad spirits are overcome, there is a need to find something else to propagate a society with fear affinity which can be used by whatever political need comes along.
first the army then the rest of the world. gay rights will someday become accepted like womans rights and racial rights. people who don't accept gays now are living fifty years in the past.
gay, bi, and lesbian people, are people. period. their rights, should not be any different than any other person's. if they want to serve their country, then GOOD FOR THEM. i respect all races, all genders, and all sexual identities, because that is how it should be. however, i'll respect someone's opinion about anything if it differs from mine, unless they question me. in which case, they will get an ear full. :)
Look, I have no problem with DaDt being repealed. It's just I have this fear that if homosexual males or even females are allowed in the military then there is this huge risk of violence within our own military. I also fear that if one of these homosexual people get's a V.D. and get's deployed or get's injured while working with his/her fellow troops he risks getting them all infected with said V.D.. Please argue with me if you must, but please hear me out.
@MrBusyIzzy Like your comment; you bring up a couple of great discussion points.
However VD or any STD is not restricted to gays, it is also a heterosexual thing - HIV and AIDS is also generic - not restricted to gays. In other words, mess around and the same risk applies to us all!
As for violence - I really doubt it; our young generation are realizing that the phobia which is homophobia is as unfounded as left-handed phobia, black phobia, or big town phobia.
I'm fully for DADT being repealed and I'ma supporter of gay rights, but I'm not sure it will make the massive difference people may think it will. The army is run by and filled with mostly men, and that means there is a lot of testosterone in the air, so some gay men and women might actually choose not to tell about their sexuality, because of fear of being ridiculed and cast out. It doesn't matter what it says on the paper, it won't do much to change the mentality of the actual soldiers.
@winniemmkay Lubing a cube is putting some kind of oil or vaseline in between the cubes (you can put the cube apart) so you can move the parts as swifltly as possible. It is an actual thing that people with rubic cubes do.
do you think while solving the cube or do your fingers kind of just go like when you're driving home you're not really thinking about where you're going you kind of just go. . .
I completly agree with you Dan. I find it wrong for the government to take away human rights from someone who is attracted to the same sex as them. Being gay isn`t a bad thing at all. It`s just something that happens to people. But taking away human rights from someone who isn`t attracted to the opposite sex isn`t right.
Sadly, change comes slowly. But it's better than not at all. Don't Ask Don't Tell basically did nothing more than pointing out what had already been going on before. But it felt like a comprise and as such I guess it helped to get to the total acceptance they arrived at now. Like you said, good riddance.
@bobolob Those laws are in place because a person under 18 can't understand the gravity of such a commitment or understand sexuality. However a young teen girl in, say, India or the middle east would disagree. They understand it and their commitment lasts for the remainder of their lives. Its been the norm through history and its still the norm in parts of the world where children marry adults and live happily ever after. Now you tell me is pedophilia still wrong?
@MahlonWilliams Yes. Because pedophilia doesn't mean sex with teenagers. Pedophilia in general is having sexual actions or even thoughts about children. Children marrying adults in India is just as wrong and immoral as anywhere else. Unfortunately it some places it is still accepted. And you can't be serious if you believe a child marrying an adult could ever be happy. That alone sounds like brain washing and the child just accepting his/her fate because he/she doesn't know any other life.
Well, You have not served! It is not comfortable to serve in the when You have someone beside You who can develop feeling for You. The point of military is isolation - all the training and being with You team, it's more like friendship or brotherhood, but when one person no really into the brother thing, then it's a BIG distraction. It's like being in one room with a girl that really likes You and You don't like Her at all, is hard to both of You. Any distraction is a RISK and risk is very bad!!

@wlchambers As the world grows up and accepts their reality, gay rights being addressed will be a more common thing, and atm, we need to balance the change and the acceptance from people, and it won't be for a looooong time untill it's perfectly incorporated into modern day society, but any steps towards that are... steps towards that. It's gonna be a long, bumpy ride. I mean, there's still racism, hell, even sexism in our society today. This isn't going to be perfect in our lifetime I think.

well, i dont think people should be gay, nor do i understand why they would want to be. however, i am not so stupid as to think that it can be stopped. i agree that they should have normal rights just as anyone else because they are in fact human and should b treated as such. i am a christian and do not think that gays should be gay but at the same time its my job as a christian to love them as a brother in Christ and show them the love of my Lord the best i can. :)

The three hundred Spartans who defended democracy from the Persian advances were mostly gay, by many accounts from soldiers themselves and from spies, who watched them 'bathe' each other erotically. The report mentions many scented oils, etc. I say that if 300 gay men can (with help of 1,000 Thespians and 3,000 Athenians, who didn't actually do much fighting) fight off the largest army the ancient world has ever seen for three days and continue to fight to their last breath, they can serve now.

I look at it this way : GREAT, but still... In some states, and in some canadian provinces, being gay is still considered an illness by the government. What good is it that gays can tell us they're gay before they go get themselves blown up for people they don't know ? I can't be happy about that, because I hate that governments spend so much on war. If it is good for gay rights, it isn't necessarily good for human rights, because the military, whatever one might say, is still all about war...

@Jellyhag02 where in canada is homosexuality considered an illness by the government?! I live in canada, and I've been to all of our provinces, and walked in gay pride parades and been to gay bars. gays can serve openely, they can work anywhere, go to any school, and do anything that straights can, encluding marry, and no one can say shit! if you try and restrict the rights of a lgbtq individual, you'll get hit up with discrimination charges

@outfitmadeofawesome In everyday life, that's how it is, I grant you this. But In legislation, old decrees and old laws sometimes clearly state that being gay is an illness.

Come on, every man is allowed to kiss -theoretically spoken- over one million women, but he's not allowed to kiss one single man? You can't be serious.

I was running out of room in my previous post so I couldn't exactly explain. The bible says that being gay is an abomination, but it (or the one the guy is referring to) also says that a lot of other things are "abominations" these other things, while you're reading, will sound absolutely ridiculous. The point being, that like these, saying being gay is an abomination is ALSO very ridiculous.

I totally agree with you, Dan. There's nothing about being gay that should prevent someone from being in the military.

Btw, for those who are religious and that's why you think being gay is bad, look up "Why Can't I Own a Canadian?" it's a sarcastic letter basically saying that not everything in the bible would make sense today.

it doesnt mean you cant be gay. it was put implace because of incidents regarding troops arguing and discriminating gay troops in the military. Teamwork is so important in the military. so if a bunch of straight guys dont like the gay guy, than there is a teamwork barrier. it is much harder to get all of the straight troops to respect the gay troops, so this policy stated that your sexuality doesnt matter. if a soldier cannot train properly because of harassment, than combat efectivness lacks.

Gay men/women already serve alongside straight men/women in the military and it does not seem to be messing with group dynamics too much. The only thing that would change is that more people will know/tell the truth. There going to be some issues figuring out who is sleeping/showering where, yes, but those people who say that these things cannot be overcome have very little faith in those who serve. They deal with much more complicated problems every day.

My problem with homosexuals in the military is that:
#1: God's word says that a man is not to be with another man, and women with women.
#2: A homosexual could be a little "distracted" by all the men around them, and there can't be an "affair" with two men while they're out in the field, can there? I find that a little scary.

@WhoWatchesVideos God's word (or man's word passed to us in the Bible) says we should stone to death those who commit adultery or eat seafood. Jesus, reportedly says we should love each other and respect fellow man.
Distraction already takes place with both sexes serving - after DADT the stress of needing to hide ones orientation goes away - the fear and shame disappears - sounds like a win-win situation for everyone to me.
Welcome to the real world, goodbye one extreme social hypocrisy.

The US is different because it has too many influential fear-mongers who create widespread phobias where they didn't exist before. It is the reason the US is fighting in Iraq (the UK followed).
Once witches and bad spirits are overcome, there is a need to find something else to propagate a society with fear affinity which can be used by whatever political need comes along.

I also fear that if one of these homosexual people get's a V.D. and get's deployed or get's injured while working with his/her fellow troops he risks getting them all infected with said V.D.. Please argue with me if you must, but please hear me out.

@MrBusyIzzy Like your comment; you bring up a couple of great discussion points.
However VD or any STD is not restricted to gays, it is also a heterosexual thing - HIV and AIDS is also generic - not restricted to gays. In other words, mess around and the same risk applies to us all!
As for violence - I really doubt it; our young generation are realizing that the phobia which is homophobia is as unfounded as left-handed phobia, black phobia, or big town phobia.

I'm fully for DADT being repealed and I'ma supporter of gay rights, but I'm not sure it will make the massive difference people may think it will. The army is run by and filled with mostly men, and that means there is a lot of testosterone in the air, so some gay men and women might actually choose not to tell about their sexuality, because of fear of being ridiculed and cast out. It doesn't matter what it says on the paper, it won't do much to change the mentality of the actual soldiers.

Children marrying adults in India is just as wrong and immoral as anywhere else. Unfortunately it some places it is still accepted. And you can't be serious if you believe a child marrying an adult could ever be happy. That alone sounds like brain washing and the child just accepting his/her fate because he/she doesn't know any other life.
