Obama to call for 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' repeal, adviser says

I don't think Navy would know how to deal with having a "huge" erection and not being able to act on it.
you are bonkers, Navel would lie on his back, raise the sail and head for the closet islands, God bless you navel and all who sail in you.
 
You read the question I asked DD right? Under the circumstances I mentioned I believe no man could control himselves and I would not blame him.......

When I was a young man in the Navy before I was married DD and was out to sea for long periods of time when we hit port I was one of the first guys on the beach looking for recreation and a pretty girl to spend my time with..I believe its natural.......I use to feel sorry for the guys who were married.......A lot of thwm succumbed to the temptation.......
Thats strange, I have been in a lot of ports in a lot of countries, Cartegena in Spain has a big US Naval base, and a huge quantity of working girls/boys.
 
Then you seriously have a VERY VERY VERY big problem.

If you wouldn't be able to control yourself being around a beautiful woman and would immediately engage in sexual assault and/or rape because of your inability to control yourself....you need to see a psychologist.

Dude, he said 90 days on board with them. You and nothing but beautiful women, sharing quarters and duties. That was his scenario. Assuming they were willing you are really pushing a man's limits.
 
Some other information. Not all erections are caused by sexual stimulation, either thoughts/feelings or some sort of manual/textural stimulation. Sometimes erections occur for, seemingly, no particular reason. This is the body's way of checking to make sure everything is OK. Nighttime erections are a great example of this. Most healthy men have between 3-6 erections during the night during REM sleep. Now, this is not to say that they are having sexual dreams. This is, again, the body making sure everything is working well. This is one way doctors can tell if erectile dysfunction is cause by something physical or something psychological. If a man is getting nighttime erections, the ED is caused by something psychological. Even daytime erections will occur (though less frequently as one gets past puberty) for no apparent reason. Again, this is just the body doing a "check".

What exactly are you trying to say?
 
I'm just sayin'.......If people seriously cannot control themselves....there is help available.

You and I both know that's NOT what NP is presenting.

Mon Capitan, a tad anal?;)

Master T,I haven't got a clue, its the key to my success here, helped of course by the gullibility of the natives.

Don't closeted gays in the military already do this?
 
Just goes to show how people will sell out their country over the smallest issues.

Ah yes I forgot. Being supportive of gay rights is anti-American. Your stupidity and inability to use logic or reason never cease to amaze me.
 
Just providing some information so people can be appropriately educated. ;)
Mon Capitan, truly your largesse knows no domain, your position as a missionary to these heathens is beyond comparrison in the Annals of history, and I mean that from the heart of my bottom;)
 
Don't closeted gays in the military already do this?

Yes, they where doing it back when I was in the service, before DADT. We have at least one gay navy vet on this board in fact, IIRC, a nuke no less.
 
The mists of ignorance is clearing from my brain, I have cogitated and ruminated over the question as to why Popeye's right forearm was so muscular. NavelPride does the same apply to you?
 
I already did, little one. Try thinking about what the words mean as you move your finger across the screen...



But, see, this is not a discussion about sodomy. This is a discussion about the President's wish to get rid of an ignorant and bigoted military rule (DADT).

Your only/best argument in support of DADT ("the only thing you need to know") is that sodomy is a crime in the military.

BUT WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT SODOMY.

YOU ARE.

What we have here is a group of people discussing the idea of getting rid of arcane, discriminatory military rules, and you jump up and shout "ZOMG!! SODOMY!!#!"

There's the connection right there. See it? DADT. DADT. DADT. DADT. SODOMY!!

So, back to my earlier point: Once we have a baseline reading of incidents of straight sex on the job, we can then properly judge/prosecute all those icky, perverted gay soldiers.

Since this is your big argument ("SODOMY!@@! ARGGH!@!") please verify for us how often straight people hump like bunnies at every opportunity, even while on the job in the military, so we have a real basis for comparison.



Or, y'know, you could forget about sodomy being a strictly gay thing.

I'm not even gonna read the article.....
BUTT, if you are a male & have sex with another male, you are not 'straight'.....:2razz:

Navy isn't talking about "willing". He's talking about gay soldiers not being able to control themselves on a boat with straight men.
He said that he wouldn't be able to control his dick and would engage in sexual assault if he were placed in the same situation.

He then had the audacity to try to claim that all men are uncapable of controlling themselves and would do the same.

I'm sorry...but I think the vast majority of men have better control over their dicks than that.
 
Don't closeted gays in the military already do this?

According to Navy's premise. Gay men and women should be engaging in all kinds of sexual assault simply because they can't control themselves.

Thank God most men are not Navy Pride.
 
Well I think you're being evasive here. You already know the answer to that is because of anal sex.

Well of course it's because of anal sex, something they label on the heterosexual side as "risky behavior."

And this military decision must take this disease into account, Glinda claims just as much sodomy...or anal sex cause we don't want to be evasive...is happening between hetero couples. Now...if that is true, why the disproprtionate stats.

For...Glinda...we need to exclude IV drug use...which accounts for 25% of HIV cases as well...during this debate. Homosexual men dominate the statistics for HIV in this country..the United States. Why is that and would any decision by the military need to consider this admittedly "risky behavior?"

You are assuming quite a bit in that statement

#1 that all men are beautiful on a ship. Lol

#2 and most importantly you are assuming a genetic connection with homosexuality which has never been proven

Where did you get point number 2 from?
 
...was in response to a specific point made by another person, who said that we should just get rid of anyone that might be uncomfortable with a gay person serving in their unit;

You are so full of crap. I said no such thing. Didn't even imply it.

Here's the exchange, for those who need their memories refreshed...

Everyone makes sacrifices when they join the military - gays are no exception. Serving isn't about some Hollywood ideal of flags waving and people being proud of their individuality. It's about winning and protecting the country, period. If DADT helps to serve that end, and I think it does to some extent, then it's a sacrifice any gay patriotic American should be willing to make. I mean, I sure as hell wasn't "myself" when I was in the Marines. No, I was a damn pawn who did what he was told when he was told to do it, but that's what I signed up for, so who am I to bitch?

And ignoring everyone else's sexual preferences should be a sacrifice any straight patriotic American should be willing to make.

I agree, they should be willing to do that, but a lot of the infantry folks won't, so where does that leave us? Just kick out all the conservative Christians and headstrong alpha males? That's like 90% of the Marine Corps infantry!

YOU are the one suggesting that we "kick out all the conservative Christians and headstrong alpha males." I never even got close to that steaming pile of crap you're lobbing around.

You are a blatant and shameless liar, and

I'm not going to waste my time debating you if you're going to misrepresent what I say.

:censored
 
Glinda claims just as much sodomy... is happening between hetero couples.

Oh look. Another bull****ter doing his "I'm a Big Fat LIAR" dance.... :liar Are you really so stupid to think no one will notice or call you on the crap you spew?

Fact is, I neither said nor implied any such thing.

This is the specific exchange, which started with me quoting a WebMD article (in an attempt to educate someone else who seemed to believe that sodomy was a strictly gay activity), and ended with me quoting the CDC study that you provided.

Many Straight Men Have Gay Sex
Nearly 10% of Self-Proclaimed 'Straight' Men Only Have Sex With Men

Sept. 18, 2006 -- Nearly one in 10 men who say they're straight have sex only with other men, a New York City survey finds.

And 70% of those straight-identified men having sex with men are married.

In fact, 10% of all married men in this survey report same-sex behavior during the past year. --WebMD Health News

I guess you didn't like the WebMD statistics, so you tried to make this debate about HIV infection rates, which, like sodomy, also has NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS DISCUSSION.


From your link:
The largest population living with HIV (45%) comprised men who have sex with men (MSM), followed by persons infected through high-risk heterosexual contact (27%)...

More than half of those living with HIV did not contract it through homosexual activities.

How you can possibly imagine that *I* am responsible for these statistics is quite the mystery. You do understand that I am neither WebMD nor the CDC, don't you?

Your beef (as ignorant and off-topic as it is) is with them, and I'll thank you to stop putting words in my mouth.

:roll:
 
Only the Dem-controlled Congress can stop this.

Never mind that a Dem-controlled congress under a Dem President created it.
