Now that's certainly an ad hominom argument.
The two are seperate and distinct subjects.

What a shame that they're dragging this out like this. The leaders (Congress, the Pentagon, the President, etc.) should just make up their minds and put the new rules in place.
What does skin color have to do with this subject, we can't go back in time. We have to deal with what's on the table today in 2010.

As a female I wouldn't want to be in a common shower room with lesbians.

If I was a male I wouldn't want to shower in a common room with homosexual men.

It's a valid question that needs to be asked of the troops. Why should they be worried about being eye perved in the shower.

Why not? Are you fearful of something?

I'm a straight male and I would have no hesitancy at all about showering with gays..

Talk about being a sick situation.

I sure would not want to be in a shower full of women and one goofball among us has a chemical problem in their brain and craves having sex with someone of the same sex.

Time to go puke now.

I think they need to release the poll because I am sure the majority of the men or women would fell very uncomfortable knowing a sick person could be standing there starring at you.
Such brilliance! How on earth did you become so sophisticated and enlightened about human sexuality? You must have an advanced degree in psychology!

No, the point is: Since when does the military take surveys of the soldiers' feelings about who serves and who does not? Did they also take a survey of white soldiers asking them how they felt about serving with Asian-Americans?

Why bother. You know it's not the same.
Bigotry and hatred abound in a vacuum.
