“In fact, it appears that the majority of people prosecuted under Article 125 are straight,”

But I thought they claimed it discriminates and that "don't ask don't tell" needs to be repealed too.

So it discriminates against heterosexuals? Then why are the homosexuals in a tither?

...The title is taken from a quote, often attributed to Winston Churchill: "Don't talk to me about naval tradition. It's nothing but rum, sodomy, and the lash.".

A repeal of the sodomy law is long overdue, according to [the delightfuylly named]Walter T. Cox.

Adultry is a UCMJ offense too, rarely enforced.

Well, next then they will have to remove fraternization charges...
And while they are at it, they will need to have 4 different bathrooms/showers instead of 2.

Or, they can label the two different bathrooms as Heters and Homos.

“Public opinion about private, consensual sexual conduct has shifted dramatically since the military sodomy ban was written into law almost a hundred years ago,” according to Nathaniel Frank, a senior research fellow at the Palm Center, a University of California, Santa Barbara, research institute focusing on gays and the military.

They do enforce Adultry more than we think. I know a General who was basically forced to retire because of his cheating on his wife.

I suppose it is only a matter of time before the military is taken down officially. Maybe we can form our own Sacred Band (a pretty butch outfit from what I read).

I would agree with this. As a practical matter the Lawrence case renders this unconstitutional. I don’t think any states have a sodomy law left on the books. Plus, if a husband and wife are into that kind of thing, they shouldn’t be subject to arrest in their quarters.

Sodomy is defined in the Manual for Courts-Martial as “unnatural copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex.” Under the UCMJ, sodomy — which includes oral sex — is considered a criminal act, even among consenting adults and married couples.

Virtually EVERY service member has violated this at least once (and more often than that if they are lucky).

I was a victim of this kind of depraved criminal activity repeatedly at the Magic Fingers Massage Parlor just outside the main gate at Tan Son Knut AB, Saigon. Fortunately, they never caught the perpetrators...and I've been emotionally scarred for life.

Laws against sodomy are honored in the breech.

Not only was one of these “experts” named COX - the other was named FRANK.

Sorry, what I do with my wife is none of anyone's business - it's between us. The UCMJ has no business in anyone's bedroom.
