Nope. You need to get a passport now.
On my passport, under sex, it says yes in big bold letters.

That may get you in to some countries, but beware if you travel to the middle east.
Not all fled. Some were crazy and some didn't care for the snow and cold of Canada.
<<<<< One of the crazy ones. (I have the certificate the Marine Corp. gave me to prove it on the wall over my desk.) Also the beaches were warm and surfing good during the typhoons. (Further proof of crazy)
Sorry, sorry! You totally have my permission to spam political threads, okay?
Sheesh.![]()
Oh come on, you can still wear it on RR.http://s3.amazonaws.com/rightnetwork-cms/1001642498/article/Don%20We%20Now.jpg?1292829630
Darn, and I had the green taffeta almost finished.![]()
Dark, I want you to know that image has seriously brightened my day!![]()

WTF are you talking about now? You threw out a couple of stats, but have spent the vast amount of your time telling me how bigoted I am. By your request, I've not asked you for a previous example of my bigotry. You did say that joining never appealed to you, and that was all the information I was looking for. Yet you keep pressing because you just know that there's some kind of trap. You and SR have convinced yourselves that you know more about me and my single question than I know.
It was an amazingly simple question: Did the policy keep you from joining?
The paranoid neurotic side of the board is off on a witch hunt because there MUST be something more.
Again, this is supposed to be a place full of open minded people, full of acceptance. Current events seem to dictate that it's just the opposite. If you're not a voted in part of the crowd, you're an evil person with subversive agendas. You've truly become everything you've always claimed to hate. Sorry if that doesn't sit well with you, but that's what it is now.
If you don't like that, maybe you should re-examine your approach to people that aren't your enemy asking a simple question.
Your argument that you reacted like that because other people have acted that way carries no weight at all. That makes you no different than the people that persecute all Muslims because of the actions of the terrorists.
I know! I used to have to listen to that shit in real time, spoken to my face.
And literotica is not a porn site, don't forget.Amicus' definitions of "most Americans" seem to suggest that "most Americans" are male, and are bigoted assholes who share many of the values of Afghanistan's Taleban.
I think Amicus is guilty of terminological inexactitude.

Most Americans know that aborition is an abomination, a sin, and one of the most insane laws ever passed in the US.
Most Americans are totall opposed to Gay marriage, note the 30 States where elections have turned it down.
Most Americans know that gay adoption of innocent children is a travesty.
Most Americans, by choice, do not associate with homosexuals and lesbians.
If the Tea Party and the new House majority doesn't turn back the Obama agenda and squelch the other social programs on the liberal/progressive agena, then you may indeed have a third party candidacy in 2012.
This social legislation is destructive to the moral fabric of a nation; it will not stand, there will be backlash, but I doubt if you ever hear of the numbers of gueers 'fragged' in combat zone, and there will be many.
I want to ask you, how many young, straight men and women would actually WANT to enlist, if DADT is officially off the books? Would you encourage them, or do you worry about being attacked by their fellow troops?
And most of the macho types who are doing all the pissing and moaning about the demise of DADT are doing so mostly because they are now scared shitless that some other man will start behaving toward them the way they have always behaved toward women.
And as far as attitudes, it doesn't really make a difference what "most" think. It makes a difference what the one bad-assed, ready to do something, knuckle-dragging guy thinks (and does).
Already been through that one: in 1999, at Ft Campbell, KY, PFC Barry Winchell was beaten to death by PVT Calvin Glover, another soldier in his company, in part because Glover believed Winchell was gay. Glover was convicted of murder by a general court-martial and is currently serving a life term at the USADB at Fort Levenworth. Another soldier who egged Glover on was convicted as an accessory, received a lesser sentence, and was released a few years ago.
As long as commanders enforce the policy, and as long as the subalterns and NCO corps make it clear that that sort of thing is unacceptable, the problems are going to to be minimal. While people keep comparing this to the integration of the military after Truman's 1948 order, in a number of respects it's more like the wider integration of female personnel that took place in the 1980's. We survived that one OK.
