I am a veteran. I'm not crazy about the idea of allowing openly gay people in the military, but don't care enough to get too worked up about it. I'm not a very naive person, so I am aware that they have always been there and will always be there.

Gay marriage is a whole different thing.





Does the idea of fags in the military make you paranoid to believe that you're unsafe during shower time or something?

And what about gay marriage? Please, tell us your feelings. Seriously, what's the big fucking deal, we allow conservative jerkoffs to put up anti-Abortion & "God is coming" signs on interstate billboards in Iowa & Kansas, but two homos getting hitched is somehow offensive to people?



Well since you asked, I will tell you. But are you sure you don't want to go ahead and continue to assume you already know the answers?

As I said in my post, it isn't really a very strong opposition. I don't much care for women in the military for the same reasons, but am just as dispassionate since it really boils down to a question of living in a fantasy world or living in the real world.

In the perfect world, I think that the military should be made up of heterosexual guys who could spend time together and bond closely, but not develop any sort of physical or romantic relationship. It really isn't about any personal dislike or fear or homophobia. In fact it really isn't about homosexuality at all since I feel just about the same way towards the idea of women in the military. I can't say I get too worked up about either though.

As far as gay marriage, like I said, I feel differently about that: I am all for it and do have strong feelings that it is the right thing for society to do. Uhh, but you already knew that, right?
