Is this part of fundamentally changing the nation?

OT no doubt approves whole heartedly. This sort of stuff gives everyone the chance to be "different". :lol: :lol:

It is really sad that a football player is scared to come out to his team and fans as he thinks he will not be excepted and it will hunt the teams ability to work together but the Once Strong Proud US Military has Gay Soldiers running around on a stage entertaining they fellow soldiers. Do they not fear that their fellow soldiers might be like the football team members and not except them and weaken the team, a team that unlike a football team relies on the whole team to stay alive. :roll:

Actually it really doesn't bother me in anyway- as there is a long history/custom in the services of men dressing in drag, putting on shows as women to entertain the troops, and being dance partners...
Sometimes on their first crossing of the equator the "pollywogs" are/were forced to dress in drag..

Even in the old cowboy writings- they talk of dances where since they had no women- whoever got stuck wearing the apron had to act as the woman...
Mike- don't go looking too close at some of those Canadian "girls"- we wouldn't want any deep stifled feelings to be aroused... :wink:

Lot of difference between men dressing as women and those that will take one in the rear.......... :lol:

I can remember going to womanless wedding (theatre/play at school) when I was a kid, but the male actors who wore those womens clothes would never have been taken as faggots. There was no questions in the kids minds either. It was just raw comedy.


:roll:

Yea, it's fundamentally changing the nation. For the worse.

The kids are going to be so screwed up, they won't know who to marry or date.

As I see it there is a BIG difference from bringing in entertainers that dress as women to entertain the troops and the gay troop members dressing up and entertain their fellow troops.
But on Saturday, servicemembers here may have been the first to take to the stage and perform as drag queens on a military installation in support of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender troops.

"Homosexual conduct was illegal and men were charged for it; we don't know how many. There are 15,000 court marshal records. But because it would often be called something different, like 'conduct unbecoming,' it's complicated. No one has gone through to learn how many gay soldiers were charged. It would be a completely hit and miss process."


Cook gestures to a large photograph featuring a line-up of soldiers in drag.

"On top of that people didn't talk about sex then. Even between heterosexual couples, in letters there's seldom any reference to sex. So while being homosexual was illegal and never talked about, at the same time, it was normal and expected to have cross-dressing. There were these plays and cabarets and because there were no women to play the female parts, it was expected that men would. These cross-dressing acts were wildly popular."

You apparently didn't read about your Canadian troops crossdressing... They weren't entertainers brought in...

Big difference in the times was that everyone civilian and soldier were too busy making a living and staying alive than to have time to be the busy bodies sticking their noses in everyones business that there are today..

And instead of the current Republican party that thinks it needs to legislate morals, religion, and stick their nose into peoples private lives--- the old Republican party followed the more tolerant Libertarian beliefs of live and let live... If its done by consenting adults and hurts no one- keep your nose out of it...

Drag queens and drag kings, to be precise.

Six service members — gay, lesbian and straight — donned heavy makeup to dance and lip sync songs such as “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” for a raucous capacity crowd at the Rocker NCO Club at Kadena Air Base.

it isn't the first... there are several hazings that called for it.. but none of them were done to support LGBT causes..
