The stupid, it burns

"I can foresee rampant violence in the military if macho men must share shower facilities, bunk beds in a submarine, or fox holes with sex-crazed gay males." Andrea Lafferty, executive director of the Traditional Values Coalition

That's some statement she made huh. It shows her to be not only stupid but also hateful, bigoted, and ignorant of how the military works.

First of all gay men who want to serve in the military are macho as hell. You can't serve in the military and not be macho to a big degree. But in this sick woman's mind all gay males are limp wristed lisping pansy-boys who camp it up and scream at the drop of the hat like pre teen girls.

Secondly, gay males in general are as sex crazed as straight ones. But in Lafferty's tiny mind being gay means you want to stick your cock, tongue, finger, fist in any male hole you can find (or vice versa) and it's the only thing you ever have on your mind.

Thirdly, when you join the military the first thing they do is break you down so that you willingly become part of the team and you give up your individuality for the good of the group as a whole. But Andrea obviously thinks that gay males are above that kind of conditioning and that their love of dick and ass sets them apart from regular guys who become submerged into the military mind set. Swallowing jizz and having anal sex will do that to you I reckon, which is why they wouldn't let women serve for so long.

What this woman's quote really says is that she has no idea about how things in the military work and that she has no idea about what gay males who want to serve in the military are like. When this whole struggle of allowing gays to serve openly in the military first surfaced years ago a woman who used to be my boss said to me that she didn't want gays in the military because she thought that soldiers didn't want guys winking at them in a foxhole during a battle, they wanted guys who would fight along side them. I asked her if she knew that Alexander the Great was gay, she said she did not. I then asked her if she knew what her idol Barry Goldwater, she was , and probably still is, a hardcore conservative Republican, said about letting gays serve in the military and she said she didn't. So I told her what he said about it before he died. He said it didn't matter if soldiers were gay or straight, but it did matter if they shot their weapons straight. She said I was lying. That was the last conversation I ever had with her.

For hardcore social conservatives it's heresy for them to admit that gay people are equal to straight people in any way. They will never ever admit that being gay is the same as being straight and that people are born gay or straight. To them homosexuality is a character defect that is to be either fixed, mocked, or ignored. And allowing gays to serve openly in the military or to get married not only scares them silly, it undermines their argument that being gay is bad and sinful. They'll forever keep ignoring the fact that it's straight people who commit the most sex crimes, are the biggest majority of pedophiles, and are the ones who we need to protect gay people from, not the other way around. And there are two things that prove those points every day, the Roman Catholic church and self loathing closeted politicians like the one in CA who voted against every gay right measure he ever saw but who loved him some hot man on man action.

The louder you proclaim how much you hate gays and how they should have no rights or equality under the law, what you're really telling the world is that you are a self loathing closeted homosexual who needs to come out. So my advice to you Andrea is for you to find a nice butch gal who looks dashing in a flannel shirt and tight jeans and you ladies have a go at it. It'll do you both some good and maybe it'll help stop the hate.
