There is only one thing they need to change though...build separate quarters for gays, just as women have separate sleeping arrangements I assume as well. It doesn't make sense for gay men to sleep with straight men.

But on the battlefield, it shouldn't matter. You are all out there together to survive.

I'm not sure separate quarters are necessary, despite what folks may think, gays don't want to have sex with everyone they see. Just like you have a type of woman that you are attracted to, gay folks have their types too... Generally they're attracted to other gay people - it's easier to get laid that way.

The military should separate or discharge anyone that is a sexual predator, not just one classification of sexual orientation. Gays are not another sex or species, a persons orientation is only one component of the whole person that they are. A mature person knows not to sleep with a co-worker... And a military person knows to follow orders - don't look at or covet your bunkmates junk! Really simple concept for the military.
