Do you want to sit on a toilet in a room without partitions next to heterosexual males, or take a shower in that same open room with them? Sexual orientation wise, it's the same situation.
You think men should be forced to share this open non-private space with men who are sexually attracted to men. Why shouldn't women share the same space with men who are sexually attracted to women?
I think you must be thinking of someone else in you liberal mag statement, because that wasn't me.

So the liberals at Science Daily have concluded that liberals are smarter than conservatives. Gee, who woulda thunk it?"
Does this jog your memory? Do you think all scientiests are liberal? I can tell you that from first hand experience as someone who has done research, that they are not. I could tell you the blood, sweat and tears that go into designing a research study, doing a very encompassing literature search, framing the null hypothesis, selecting and justifying your statistical model, choosing your level of probability, defending your statistical model, explaining why you are using a one or two tailed t test, defining the degrees of freedom of each variable, how you are defining your universe of subjects, how you then randomized that universe and it goes on and on. Implying a conclusion is due to falsifying data is a terrible thing to say unless you can prove it using the principles I stated above. I did my own research and mentored many many more studies.
Scientific research is hard. How many research projects have you done?
Back to the other issue: What makes you think every gay man is attracted to every straight man? My gay friends have great gaydar and they don't approach straight men. As I said, they are not stupid. If they happen to be having a bad gaydar day, they tell me they apologize to the guy and walk away. Gay men are not predators after every man's junk. Do you lust after every woman you see in an uncontrollable way? You have been sharing bathrooms with gay men your entire life.
As to the issue of intergrating the military not being the same as having gays serving openly, it is exactly the same thing. Prejudices had to be addressed and why drag this out? As I said 3 times before, do you think Eisenhower was a liberal social engineer? Calling everything you don't like liberal is kind of weak.
As to flaunting their lifestyle, once again, what makes you think they will do that? I agree that ANY PDAs (public displays of affection) while in uniform are out of bounds be it gay or straight. There are rules in place to deal with these issues and should be applied to gays just as they are to heterosexuals.
