The Pentagon commissioned a $4.5 million dollar survey of 400,000 service members and then was amazed news of the poll leaked out and was covered in the MSM.....The survey was all about attitudes about gays in the military...Questions like, would it bother you to shower with a gay soldier ? It's all part of the run-up to scrapping don't ask/don't tell.
Should a survey be kept secret ?...No, of course not...and do they need a survey ?...well, I would say no to that also.
Fact is some people want DADT repealed...some don't....
Since people are already showering with gays and shopping at the PX alongside gays, the question is not a question of 'have you ever met a gay person?'
The question is whether there are the votes for repeal....
I guess the I miss the point as at my age with gym class a distant memory, I can shower alone without pondering who is standing next to me.

If we were allowed to round up all the homophobes and put them on an island somewhere, costly surveys about their sensitivities and stupid legislation to protect them from feeling icky wouldn't be necessary.
Keep having blogs like this and youll end up with Mindy showering with you.. At your age that could be fatal.... I cant imagine you on the cover of vanity fair.
I would rather shower with 1,000 gays than to shower with the slime that we have in Albany & Washington that is trying to insinuate that the gays are (or might be) a lesser class than what is representing us (and I use that phase very loosely) in those two places right now.
That 12:25 guy hit it on the head. I mean, imagine, taking a shower with Shelly Silver. That'll put a crimp in your day.
Glad to see folks cling to that phobe word. Its like using the term racist. Always fun and reeeeal eeeefective. I loves it. It always makes people feel comfortable, with themselves.
Now the guy with OCD is obsessing about Sheldon Silver in the shower.
He's a Troll !! every board has a couple ignore him
Labeling someone a homophobe because they do not want to shower in the company of homosexuals, makes as much sense as it would to label a woman as a misandrist simply because she does not feel comfortable showering with random men.
No doubt, the intellectual elite liberals see the parallel between gays marrying and homosexuals marrying but will be blind to seeing the parallels in the example I stated above.
3:16PM,
If a service member "does not want to shower in the company of homosexuals", yet doesn't feel the same unease about showering with his or her straight counterparts, then that makes that service person, by definition, a homophobe.
No doubt, even dumb-as-rocks contemporary "conservatives" can see the parallel between a dictionary definition of a word and an evident example of that word.
Guess what? If you were comfortable around every other insect, but were uneasy around spiders. I'd call you an arachnophobe. Does that offend your delicate "conservative" sensibilities?
Moment of silence, please. I'm still thinking of my shower with Sheldon Silver. Goodness knows your kids have taken a bath, so to speak, with him.
Isn't it funny. That one guy is a troll. But every response since has been about what he said. That makes you guys reeealy smart.
Who's the troll? With the exception of the guy who randomly brings up Sheldon Silver in completely unrelated posts, I think everyone else has been on topic.
But everyone, including you, mentions ME. I should start my own TV show, or at least have a segment on the North Country's Finest.
Everybody mentions a turd in the punchbowl too. Doesn't mean people want to see more of it, or, for that matter think it's worth more than a shit.
Ooo, Ooo, them is harsh words. Whoever this guy is he must have great influence over you. Here you is, spending your weekend getting all hot about HIM. Trust me, he really is impressed. I'd tell him right now buy he's out spending your money. As long as you keep drinking out of that punchbowl, who's the fool, 6:11? Here, tell your kids to have a glass.
You have all showered with a homosexual (gay). Yourself. All humans have a spectrum of emotional attractions which sometimes involve homosexual feelings. It is part of being a normal balanced emotional being. Denial is abnormal.
How do we know that denial is abnormal?
It seems like the norm throughout history regardless of religious influence.
How do we know that everyone is a homosexual to some degree or another?
You might as well tell me that everyone likes dill pickles and horseradish.
Two flavors that I find repulsive. Not that I mind if anyone else eats them. But it does suck that they are so pervasive that I have to go out of my way to take my pickles off my McDonalds and a little of that vile flavor is left over no matter what.
I can appreciate the masculine form to the extent that I know whom I would not want to look like and whom I would prefer to look like and all things being equal I prefer the company of good-looking people. I am not sure what is meant by “emotional attraction” but I am sure I am “attracted” to the personality of both sexes if the personality is good. But I am in denial of feelings of wanting to put a penis in my mouth or anus or to explore the abdomen of David Beckham with butterfly kisses. If those feelings are there they are repressed effortlessly. And so, in the company of naked men there are no nuisances to deal with like unwanted overtures, sexual harassment, rape, ogling or STDs.

7:52 Sex in not love and love is not sex. When you figure that out, I thing you might be a happier being.
@5:26, I don't know what you are getting at. If your partner does not give you sex and does not have a damn good excuse not to give you sex then your partner does not love you. Period (ugh)
If you were attacked by a man in the shower, would you be able to beat him off?
Beat him off? Um... perhaps you meant fight him off?
Um…If I had said, "fight him off", it wouldn’t be funny, now wood it?
