The so called "gay bomb" has been the source of many a bad jokes lately. I'd like to share some of them with you (or at least some blogger commentary), but before I do, I may as well give a quick explanation in case you haven't heard about this. . . . I always get a kick out of people who think that we all just “magically turn gay” and can turn it on and off. But also because of the idea that 7.5 million, thats right, million dollars would be invested into such a project. And not for anything, but I love how the government would qualify turning enemy soldiers into fudge packers as a means of keeping our country safe.
I can only imagine that we will also be hearing reports in the near future about the Air Force's ill-fated attempt to develop "Gaydar."
My question about all this is, "what about the don't ask, don't tell policy?" A bomb of this nature would be devastating to our troops, who, when struck with 4 kilotons of fag, would immediately have to turn in their fatigues and march home, skipping, in retreat, having been "exposed.". . . I guess this would give a new meaning to men getting "dirty in the trenches."
So, it's just offensive that they think by turning people gay that the other military would be incapable of doing their job. And it's absurd because there's so much medical data that shows that sexual orientation is immutable and cannot be changed.
