Pentagon Had Plans for 'Gay Bomb'
The Pentagon considered a proposal to create a hormone bomb that could turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.
U.S. military officials told KPIX-TV in San Francisco that a "gay bomb" was on the drawing board in 1994 but then subsequently rejected.
The discovery was made by Edward Hammond, of Berkeley's Sunshine Project. Using the Freedom of Information Act, he found a copy of the proposal from the Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.
The "gay bomb" was part of an effort to develop non-lethal weapons. The proposal for the weapon stated: "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

LMAO!!!
San Francisco: “Bomb us, you vicious brutes, bomb us, we dare you!”
The gay bomb wouldn’t have any effect on San Fransicko.
Or maybe it already did.
Jeez. And the Muslims were freakin’ out over naked human pyramids. Imagine if they got hit with this.
But, But, homosexuality is genetic! Something like this wouldn’t have worked! /sarcasm.
Obviously science knows that it’s a choice, and this proves it. It’s just not PC to admit it.
“Someone set us up the bomb”
“All your base are belong to us..... thilly!”
Is this satire? It has to be.
Oh my goodness—I think there are a few areas in the US that they used as test subjects first.
LOL
Sounds like the perfect weapon for Muslim extremists. That would be ironic.
Time for some close-order swanning about!
This is not the source from which I recall the story, lol.
It is still partly genetics! Hormones and gene transcription factors are coded for by genes, and of course you can chemically interfere in signal transduction pathways and into hormone receptors just as you can in treating depression. Read up on your science please.
Otherwise, I agree this would be a fun weapon to use against Al Qaida.
Buggering boys is a common form of Muslim entertainment.
Who says the military can’t think outside the box.
