I have been told that I am okay with this...
...I have also been told the only correct opinion is to completely support the policy.
...and since we have all been directed to support the new policy, it must be a good idea.
Its a good thing I sat through the new SHARP briefings this week. I wouldn't want to sexually harass anyone when I can legally 'get my gay on' 60 days after the ink is dry on the DADT repeal....
...just my two cents - I could be wrong.
PS:
I love you guys !

Gay Training
This isn't going to end well. Soldiers will end up policing themselves. We knew that certain people were homo when I was AD and we steered clear of them. The only good news is there seems to be far less homos in combat units as compared to medical companies. Maybe they'll separate themselves from the rest of us. But there are going to be dark, bleak days ahead before the suits finally realize they're compromising national security by demoralizing the troops and causing mass exodus when it gets so bad that steady men just can't take it anymore. This is embarrassing and disgraceful. If I see two homos kissing in public Ill react the same way I would now, marines or not. And if I have to explain their public perversions to my young daughters, I doubt I'll be able to restrain myself.

I tend to think it is a similar principle myself. I wonder how proponents of homesexual integration answer this.

They have answered it - The horny heterosexual male can not control his animalistic urges and must be kept away from females. The more refined homosexual male has calmed his inner urges and can shower with straight males without thinking along sexual lines.
See - it's your fault.

The shower issue
The shower issue is one of the main problems with this and nothing is going to be done about it.
Men and women cannot dorm together, use the same bathrooms, and at least in the Air Force they can't spot eachother for PT. With gays being allowed to serve the only way to solve this problem would be to segregate them the same way straight males and females are.
For those who support this I ask " How sould you feel if I showered with your wife? Or what if your wife had to dorm with a man?" That wouldn't fly with anyone, but they don't seem to make the connection that a gay showering with someone is the same difference.
I apologize if there are grammatical errors I'm typing on my phone.

Absolutely. I should have articulated my reply a little better. what I meant is that the policy change can only affect someone's behaviour, not his beliefs. IMO.
Example? If a service member doesn't condone homosexuality I don't see how the new policy might make him change his mind.
For the records, we received the DADT training on base too. One hour that I might have spent engaging myself in more productive activities. But if big navy says so, who am I to contradict her?

Nudists don't seem to have a problem with it, and neither do some other cultures.
