That's your uninformed opinion.Everyone is a little bit gay. Only prudes who don't really like sex are 100% straight. Those are the missionary only people.

Reba said:Housing is assigned by rate/rank, size and composition of family, and availability.
At the time that Hubby and I were eligible for military housing, and a unit became available, we were both enlisted petty officers with one daughter. That made us eligible for a two-bedroom townhouse unit. That's the largest unit we would have ever been eligible for because we had only one child.
nyyankees154 said:4: Again, it don't matter if they agree with it, in the eye of the military, it still an affair. If someone is filing for divorce and not final and get caught sleeping with someone, they still get in trouble. Now, if it a gay/lesbian couple, it fall under the same thing. They are married and they only allowed to sleep with each other, only.
It only takes one. If morale changed for just one person......then something changed. You said nothing would change.
It depends on dependency status of the children. If the military member has full or majority custody, then they can claim the children for determining housing eligibility. If they are only a "weekend" parent, then probably not.Even in that case, does the military have any grounds to oppose a child from a previous relationship? Just pointing out that there are ways for same-sex couples to have kids, so the issue of housing a same-sex couple with kids would come up.
To answer the original question about whether gay couples (with no kids) would get the same housing as straight couples with 1 or 2 kids, my guess is they would get the same housing as a straight couple with no kids.
The Post and Courier - News, Weather, Classifieds, Sports - Charleston SC - postandcourier.comTake this example: When I was in the Navy, I knew a few of the guys that were gay on the ship. It was well know who was and who wasn't. So that didn't bother me as long as they did not cross my boundary.
After leaving the ship and getting station on shore, I was in the shower at the barracks. This is an open shower and they are about 15 shower heads. I had one in a corner since i was the only one in the shower at the time. Well a young man came in and took the shower head right next to me. That’s a no no. You give each other space, unless they are 15 people showering at the same time. This is what makes service personnel uncomfortable. This can cause people to get jumped on. I just turn my shower off and got out.
If you have not been in the military and don't realize the close quarters that we are in then they is no way you can truly understand.
You have to be very careful that you don't step into someone else comfort zone.
As far as war time goes, when that threat alarm goes off, everyone forget about who or why they hate someone. Yes, even the ones who claim to be KKK’s, Gansters and Rednecks pull together.
After these threats are over, we go back to disliking or hating our fellow crew member. Thats the life of a Service member.
Is this a waste of tax dollars, or is it a good thing to research?
Anyone that has showered in the military has probably showered with a gay person. They just didn't know for sure.
I've never heard that before. Where did you get that information?...For example, a female soldier who is very against both abortion and homosexuality is more likely to be okay with serving with someone who had a few abortions rather than a lesbian. Why?
That's your uninformed opinion.
You are so prude that you were offended by a lighthearted joke!
You might want to get a few more posts under your belt before you go being rude to one of out members. Reba is well liked here and known for her class.....not to mention her post count beats yours 1000 to 1.

I'm not sure what that means or what significance that holds, but it seems pretty wierd. Posts beats what? Anyone who has to post back against an "everyone's a little bit gay" post might have their knickers in a twist, if you ask me. Is my AD account threatened? People are wierd.....

In bold, are you serious or just joke?
I don't see this member break the AD rule.
Thank you but I'm OK. I've been called things worse than "prude."You might want to get a few more posts under your belt before you go being rude to one of out members. Reba is well liked here and known for her class.....not to mention her post count beats yours 1000 to 1.

Maybe.....
I think it is kind of ridiculous when some who isn't even qualified to PM yet starts insulting/mocking someone with over 20,000 posts. I would feel that way if they were insulting you,jillio or Jiro too..... That's just me.
You see value in a number where I don't think most people would. Good for you, friend.
Maybe, one day.... maybe. I will get to PM. Do you think?! And maybe, just maybe, you'll reach 20,000 posts too.
