That's totally not what I meant. I didnt know how else to describe that we knew who they were, even though it was "dont ask dont tell" everybody "knew" even if it was just speculation. I did not mean to imply that they were all showy about it.

I'm glad it was repealed, but I still worry about their safety. I worked with some real asshats while I was in the military, and I dont know if the military is ready to step up and take action against bigots if they act like a doofus. THAT is my biggest concern. I have friends who agree that gays should be able to serve but only under DADT, where as prior to DADT, they were asked, and if they said yes, then they werent allowed to serve at all. If the military is going to be hard core about other "rules" being broken, they'd better be ready to punish homophobes who resort to violence.

One of my friends was kicked out a few years ago because they found out he was gay. I wanted to text him today how happy I was but I know its a sore subject for him.

So glad this is OVER.

The repeal of DADT is irrelevant.

Most gays are in the closet by choice. They don't want to come out and the repeal of DADT is not going to make them come out.

Hollywood is the most liberal click in the world and half the actors are still in the closet. Hal Holbrook, LeVar Burton, Randy Jackson, James Franco, Kevin Spacey, and Richard Gere are all queer.

There is no DADT policy in sports. Do you seen many athletes coming out? Magic Johnson and Isiah Thomas are both gay. Didn't anyone other than me find it strange that they would kiss before their games?

Is there a male figure skater that is not gay?

Just look at the Rutgers student that jumped off the bridge. Gays do not want people to know they are gay.

I would venture to say that most "gays" shouldn't have to "come out" because their relationships should be as accepted as heterosexual ones. Heterosexuals aren't expected to "come out." Why's that?

^^ I agree. I just hope the military actually punishes those people who deserve to be punished.
