I understand what you are saying, but the consequences that come with someone's sexuality being ousted are too harsh. One shouldn't be kicked out of the military just because of their sexuality.

I understand trying to protect them from ridicule, harrassment, and/or violence, but honestly, gays get that already. The military isn't going to provide any different of an environment than the real world with that sort of thing.

I don't remember parading around naked in front of ANYONE. We had stall type showers on the ship...and I didn't strip off any clothes until I got in. Then I put clothes back on.

Modesty, except when alone or with MY partner.
