It's called DADT (couldn't help myself, it was annoying me that you were writting it wrong), and there were actually studies conducted regarding this issue, which showed that there would be no negative effects to gays serving (not to mention the proof provided by countries where they are already able to serve). It's also quite irrelvant if the straight soldiers would feel 'uncomfortable'. If white racist soldiers are uncomfortable with balcks serving, should blacks be banned? If christian soldiers are uncomfortable with non-christian soldiers, should non-christians be banned from serving? It's the army, there isn't really room for such fits. |
In lot of countries, serving the army is actually mandatory for all men, regardless of sexuality, so your studies are irrelevant. Even here in serbia, lots of gays try to avoid serving the army. Not that anyone would bother to force them to serve tho.
And you misunderstood me, I dont want anyone to be banned from serving the army. Its a great honour in doing so, and everyone should have the right to it. I am just saying gays shouldn't be too open abou their sexuality, neither should heterosexuals, for their own well being and good of the army squad they are in
