Gay men are rapacious predators, but straight ones can be rapists and still maintain unit cohesion.

Remember the "shower defense" for Don't Ask, Don't Tell? Well, it's different when you're straight:


CBS News has discovered that both the Army and the Marines have given "moral waivers" to men who have been convicted of rape and sexual assaultrelated feloniesdespite an initial denial from the principal undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, Michael Dominguez. In the clip below, Katie Couric talks to a former military medic named Wendy who was sexually assaulted twice while serving abroad. According to CBS:
Wendy’s experience is not unusual. Since 2002, the Miles Foundation, a private non-profit that tracks sexual assault within the armed forces, has received nearly 1,200 confidential reports of sexual assaults in the Central Command Area of Responsibility, which includes Iraq and Afghanistan. Those reports have increased as much as 30 percent a year.
