Transcript:
Melissa: I'm just a little surprised, Roz. You always acted like you were into guys. Soldier: I know, and I'm not proud of it... but I really liked being in the service. I thought I needed the cover, I even went on dates. Melissa: You did? Soldier: Yup. Of course the guys were all gay? Melissa: That's a date? Soldier: Almost. It's just nice to chill with someone on the same page.

Perpetuation of a myth that one can instinctively know the sexual preference of another, which should be a non-issue.

“Know thyself.” —Traditionally attributed to Chilon of Sparta (ca. 550 BCE), among others, and older than Socrates/Plato, with whom the saying is closely associated. Said to have been inscribed on the forecourt wall of Apollo’s temple at Delphi, Greece. Reference: http://www2.binghamton.edu/cnes/docs/gnothi_sauton.pdf “… [T]he unexamined life is not worth living …”. —Socrates (469-399 BCE), Apology, 38a. Reference: http://philosophy.lander.edu/intro/apology1.shtml I respect and salute Roz for following, even if unwittingly, these two chunks of wisdom from antiquity. They will stand her in good stead, as Trudeau has drawn her as a person of integrity and truth.

What a surprise! I’m a white male with inner lesbian urgings too! What to go on a date?
Potrzebie about 13 years ago
I wonder what the latest coming out stories are really like? Any blanket parties? I guess that a lot of jerks I met in the service were really closeted and that was an act .

The guys weren’t gay until after they dated Roz.

ok. so who cares what a person does behind closed doors? It’s no one’s business but my own – and my VERY lucky husband.

I (red-blooded male that I am) used to go out with a lesbian friend. We’d ogle the same women, then laugh about it. It was good to have a friend who shares your interests.

At the risk of offending many service men, the military, regardless of the nation it serves, and whether land, sea, or air, is the home of many posturing jerks trying to appear tough, brave, and invincible.However, not all those posturing jerks are gay, and the military isn’t the only place to find them. It’s just that the behavior problems are different.

“Birds of a feather”? Plumage can be deceiving. Those most intent on looking like eagles leading the hunt, are often just the scavengers afraid to fight on their own, willing to follow and fight each other over the scraps.

Relating homosexuality to bestiality is no better than relating it to pedophilia. Which many ignorant people do on both accounts.

But @PP, how can you ever express those urges?
RinaFarina about 13 years ago
ok, @epmurray, you’ve answered that question.

DADT is dead and America is better off. Now lets move on to other problems and also other sources for comedy.
