Do you have experience or have knowledge of this?
There are countries that have open gays in military and I am wondering how has that worked out?

Well as one who spent 11 years in the military (4 RA, 5 AR, 2 ANG) and during that time worked with guys who were gay..
I would prefer a gay guy over a female on the battle field!
Now before anyone goes off the deep end..
I am not saying there are NO WOMEN out there that can pull their weight, all I am saying is that MOST of the women in the armed forces are NOT pulling their weight!
The US gov has been toying with our military in more ways than one, every social experience one can think of has been tried there. And for the most part it has not been good!
So Ill end with this
There are some women out there that are a mans equal.. So let them join!
Now if the politicians belied that too
Than they would not force the military to have two physical test (PT) standards, one for male and one for female!
My only fear is if the politician ever did address that, they would not raise the standard for the women up to the mens standard, but lower the mens standard down to the womens standard.. Than we would be in a real world of hurt IMHO!
