I don't care what gays do in private, and I haven't ever argued about it. I'm not really all that offended at seeing a gay couple. providing they are flaming and making a point of themselves. Because I don't like hetero's who carry on outside closed doors either. It isn't appropriate public conduct, IMO.
In examining allowing gays to openly enlist in the military, the first question is "Why?" While I know younger people do it to an extent anyway, it is STILL inapprorpriate professional behavior for heterosexuals to flaunt their sexuality in public in the military. If a guy comes in and starts yacking about what-all he did with Suzy Rottencrotch, the first thing I think of is he must not hold in very high regard to disrespect her in such a way.
As you pointed out, the gays that are in the military are already there. Those gays want to serve FIRST, and be gay second. The ones that want to be allowed to flaunt it want to be gay first, and serve second.
If you aren't a Marine first in my company, I have mess duty, guard and maintenance quotas to fill.
My view as well...exactly!
