Wait, why is the boyfriend more butch than the marine?

Why do Marines ride on Navy ships?

So sailors can dance with real men sometimes.

/Thought the pic was pretty cool.
//Especially since DADT hasn't been dead for very long.
///I bet a lot of Republicans are gagging right now too, which is fine by me.

DeltaPunch: Awesome. Depending where he lives, he may very well not have the same rights and equalities that you and I have, yet there he is putting his life on the line to serve our country.

He's defending my freedom, your freedom, and most importantly his freedom.

On a side note, hope the couple never goes to a live Republican Presidential debate. They'd probably get booed and hissed at by a bunch of cowards hiding in the crowd, in the dark.

/Thread jack over.

It's a good day. Soon this won't be a big deal anymore.

Chameleon: I truly don't understand the mindset that can see a picture like that and not think "Aww."


well, I look at that and I think "FAAAAAAP!!!"

Semper Fab!

I'm looking forward to the day when the caption for photos like this read simply "two people in love"...

NFA: Aside from the display of affection while in uniform...(generally frowned upon).

It is a bit over the top. Even if that were a hetero couple the wrapping legs around each other would get you dirty looks from the bosses.

Oh, it's the Free Republic, huh? Those pussies there only come out from under their rocks when it's safe, nobody might call them names or disagree with them.

A unit (no pun) made entirely of couples would be a VERY effective force. There was a king who used to do that, and they did fight very well.

Of course, with modern small scale conflicts with inferior guerrilla forces I'm not sure unit effectiveness is as important as it was back when you had to stand toe-to-toe over the bodies of the dead and hack at the other guys with a big knife.

Doesn't matter where he lives; he doesn't have the same rights and equalities. Even if he lives in a state that has same-sex marriage, the federal government still won't recognize the marriage and grant the same benefits they would to a straight married couple. And, if he were to marry his partner in a same-sex recognizing state and then they take a road trip and get into a serious accident in a state like, oh, Indiana, they wouldn't have the same visitation/decision making rights for the hospital that they would have in their state of marriage.

what_now: oh wow..there is a whole set of soldiers returning home to their doggies.

Don't ask, don't tell.

Public displays are frowned upon but they look the other way during homecomings... Hence my phrase "generally frowned upon"

They told us letting the gays get away with this shiat would lead to bestiality.

Just turtles.

That's kinda gay

Somehow, it's just not the same

/NTTAWWT

Well at least the gay (dude) welcome home from your yearlong deployment photo op will never result in that awkward moment when the service member notices that his spouse is 6-7 months pregnant.

So. There's that.

Do teh laydies want to fap over two guys having teh secks as much as guise do over two chicks?

Until it gets all "Temptation Island" in the unit. Then comes the fragging.

That's an interesting question. I am typically not a big fan of the gay porn. I'll throw some in the mix to spice it up every now and again, but it's not a go- to.

However, I know several women- both gay and straight- who find gay porn to be just the thing.

I think it depends on if you're the kinda girl that just wants to see hot people farking, or if you're the kind of girl who wants to imagine herself in the room.

I mean, two hot guys making out is hot, but it would be hotter if they were both making out with me, ya know? And actual gay porn doesn't really have a place for me to fit in.

Mrs Tigger's tastes in pornography would make Elton John blush.

They look like they're going to Marine "Core" each other right there on the spot.

Unfortunately, we've always had them:

I'm very fond of that quote and very afraid that the particular American brand of anti-intellectualism has spread north and seems to be growing.

/You may well have always had them but never before have they been allowed to control so much of the discussion.

Personally I think I'll pass on reading the comments on that site. I'd rather continue looking at a picture of two human beings that are obviously in love with each other.

Don't worry. On November 7th, after Obama wins either legitimately or by stealing the election, Obama will be enacting the Real American concentration camps. All Freepers will be rounded up and executed. The very day after he wins. Right after he outlaws all non-Muslim religions.

That's cute and all, and good for them. But gay sex just disgusts me. I don't understand why anybody would want to stick there penis in there. I don't even do it to my girlfriends.

I don't care about the kissing, and handjobs, and blowjobs even. But when the dude starts asking me to stick it in his bum I get really freaked out.

Tigger: Mrs Tigger's tastes in pornography would make Elton John blush.

Yeah I'm right there with her.

I love the picture. this was up on a friend's facebook page a few days ago. The story in LGBTQnation makes it sound like they are both in the service but just one was returning. I think it's cool either way. Two dudes with that kind of strength must make for some interesting, uh, experiences...

Don't get me wrong, I get the whole free speech thing, knock yourself out, but the full on pride of ignorance, the going out of your way to not learn something new, the falling all over each other to say something even stupider than the last guy....
How can you actually go through life that willfully resistant to picking up new things?

cryinoutloud: Once I was in the airport, and I saw a young woman come off the plane and launch herself into the arms of a guy just like this. I thought she was going to knock him over. And they just stood there like that for minutes. It was almost enough to make me wish I had a boyfriend.

/Her guy was cute too.

You have to clean up after them. And they smell.

People in times of societal change freak right the fark out. Right now, the conservatives are coming to grips with the fact that in as little as 12 years, they will be the minority racial group in the United States.

Yes, this worries them a great deal. Because they know payback is a biatch. And they are due so very, very much payback.
