I am not a sexist, I have no problems with equal rights for women, I have worked in factories with them, and I have served with them in the Navy, and I can honestly say that all I felt about 50% of them is that they were there to claim Sexual Harassment until they got to the highest paying position available.Of the other 50%, I'd honestly say that half of them were there to make money in a way other than their bi-monthly government paycheck. Of the remaining 25%, I knew a few decent women that did, in fact, want to work hard and get what they deserved by their own merit, but they have to deal with the attitudes generated by the other 75%.One story that always stuck with me was told to me by one of my LPO's in boot camp. He personally knew a woman on a carrier that had over a million in cash, yet had never cashed a military check. If you need me to explain farther, you're pretty naive.As far as gays go, I was on a submarine. We had actual gays aboard, to go along with the rest of us. Did I worry about it? No. If I woke up to a guy performing an "act" upon me, I guess I'd probably wind up in Leavenworth and his momma would get a flag or something.Edit: And I typed this up and posted while you were posting bulbboy, sorry . . .</blockquote>
