Israel and the UK have had homosexuals serving in the IDF for years now, with no loss of military readiness. I’m anti gay “marriage” but don’t understand Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

Why do I get the feeling this thread might quickly spiral out of control and get pulled?

“Israel and the UK have had homosexuals serving in the IDF for years now, with no loss of military readiness.”

I beg to differ. Not sure if you’ve ever served, but our military is far superior to those of Europe. We have by far the most well trained and highly skilled military units in the worlds. Why in the world would someone want to introduce open homosexuality into the barrack, showers, and sleeping quarters unless they were determined to undermine unit cohesion. Something no one has ever been able to answer is this: if open homosexuals should be allowed to shower with other nude males, then are we going to allow normal red-blooded male soldiers to shower with nude women? Why or why not?

gays can serve in the US military as long as they don’t practice or flaunt their homosexuality
