- I would think that you would agree with me that the heterosexual lifestyle
- is a perfectly acceptable one right ?
-
- In case you don't know it the Uniform code of military justice has
- regulations banning sex between heterosexual soldiers of opposite gender.
- Those regulations have nothing to do with the relative appropriateness
- of sex between opposite genders outside the miltary or the acceptability
- of their lifestyle choice.
-
- The proposed changes do nothing to change the UCMJ's stance of sex between
- soldiers, they are about the mere fact that some people have the sexual
- orientation of their same gender rather than the opposite gender.
- we are talking about behavior here, not the reality of what makes
- their pupils dilate.
-
- Besides BOZO, queers are a normal and natural part of the spectrum of
- human experience, and the relative acceptance of that fact by ill
- educated and naive individuals is rapidly vanishing as the millenium
- approaches.
- better hurry or you'll be late.
