Well, if he DOES post it on that forum, you'll just call him a troll and you'll say he has no backbone because he can't say it to their faces, he has to hide behind a computer screen. And if he does say it to their faces, you'll call him unpatriotic and you'll say that they are over there fighting for his freedom.

There really is no winning with people who glorify military life/service.

He's a troll in this forum and I have no problem saying so AND frankly I think his comments in this particular thread are out of line and have nothing to do with the thread topic.

As to your last comment, NOT that it is related to the thread topic, but WHO is glorifying military life/service?

That MOST people in the Australia forum appreciate the efforts of their service people could hardly be construed as glorifying it and why would you care anyway?


As to this thread in general, storm in a teacup imo and another media beat up but I have to laugh at this sepo marine bitching about what Aussie women wear and insisting they cover up when he's busy fighting for Muslim women to have the freedom to dress just like the sheilas.

A lifestyle that affords you the freedom to write that; oh the irony.

Who's glorifying Military Service? This is a thread about one Marine's comments and whether people agree with him or not?

I agree, people always have to generalise and talk about the hot button topics.

Got back about a week ago from Perth and thereabouts....and my wife and I both thought that women DO dress a little....oddly there.

I made the comment after a few days that it appeared that quite a few women were in imminent danger of dropping a boob out of their tops.

Now while this in and of itself isn't terrible,some of the women simply should have used a mirror BEFORE dressing.

Another point, it seemed that women in general were a little more 'endowed' there than here,at least naturally.

I also understand it IS Summer and quite hot.

Most Marines I know would have liked women 'flaunting it'.

I went 'home' for a visit actually.

Here in the USA, women also have a problem 'flaunting it',sadly most of the time they shouldn't be....

It is never nice to have what appears to be three boobs,two in the regular position and one down around your stomach.

Surprising, most US Marines I knew were more than happy to see an attractive lass with little on.
This bloke must be gay, only explanation
