'Don't ask, don't tell' policy ruled unconstitutional

Forget DADT!! Just ask Reba if this ain't true. A soldier can have sex (any kind) with another soldier. If it happens, both could be drumed out of service.

Totally unrelated to the topic. We are not discussing heterosexual issues or sexual activity. We are discussing the revealing of one's sexual orientation.

How is this different from a male soldier having a relationship with a female soldier?

The military isn't there yet in "thought policing" but it won't be long now. It has become too powerful.

Agreed. Is anyone else reminded of the great contributions made by black soldiers that were not recognized based on race? Lot of similarity there.

It depends on the circumstances, relationships, and the diligence of enforcement.

Depends on what you mean by "relationship." Also, whether or not they are married to others, whether or not they are in the same chain of command, their respective rates/ranks, where and when they have this "relationship," etc.

Since you answered my question with a question it was a response, yes, but it didn't answer anything.

OK, we'll just skip it then.

So it can be assumed that you don't understand the limitations placed on the individual through the policy of "don't ask, don't tell."
 
Rhetorical questions are still answers.

People don't like them; because they don't want to disgunish an actual question from an answer.

Please explain how they are policing thoughts.

Re-read, please. Beowulf said they aren't there yet. However, dismissing as a result of sexual orientation without any evidence of sexual activity is pretty darned close.
