why the hell would a woman get pregnant while on a submarine?
To be fair, he's making more sense than you are at the moment. The whole issue at hand is that homosexuals in the military is making a mountain out of a mole hill. I don't see why it would be needed for people to "feverishly" want to serve with homosexuals for this policy to be repealed. Do you apply those same standards towards all aspects of your life?!?
As for your question for sexual harassment, it should be no different than what is is for men harassing women (or vice versa).

Yeah usually the submarine is in her, not the other way around.
are you arguing that men shouldn't have equal responsibility? They help make the kid
I just enjoy taking apart badly-constructed arguments, and all the ones who seem in favour of repealing DADT appear to me to belong to this category. They may be right, for all I know, but the reasons I've been coming across don't strike me as convincing in the least.
Oh, I think it's absolutely inevitable. (History, as the expression goes, is on your side. At the moment, at least.) It's just that you're wrong, and I expect the (rather dire) consequences to manifest themselves over the next two to three decades, beginning, most probably, with this one.
If the responsibility is proportional to the help given in the "making", then the division of responsibilities should be proportional to the mass (an energy) of the contribution of each party. By that metric, the man should pay the equivalent of a single sperm and a few calories, and the woman for all the rest. (This is what, by the way, would be implied by the rationale behind this argument.)
But no, I am not arguing that. I am saying that the educating of the men is unnecessary; educating the women should be sufficient for the prevention of pregnancy (which is what, I hope, the military wants to aim at) (unless, as I said, rape is the preferred form of the sexes' relations to each other). Civilian laws already exist to punish extremely harshly any man foolish enough to trust a woman's claims regarding contraception and her fertility.
Heh. Submarine. I think you mean supercarrier.
Your junk has a flight deck?
I have yet to see a valid reason not to
I served in the US Army - there are already gays there, and generally everyone knows who they are - at least that was my experience.
There may well not be any good reason to keep DADT, it's just that I haven't seen any good ones in favour of repealing it. As said before, I don't know much about this, so I prefer to leave it to the experts (and don't like it when politics interferes with their decision-making), but I generally do know a bad argument when I see it. (There is no need to take this personally, by the way - it's possible for a good thing to be supported by horrible arguments, and vice versa.)
That may well be so. But it is not permissible to generalise like this, is it? I mean, if someone made a similar generalisation about blacks/Jews/women/Muslims with which you disagreed, shrill cries of "Racism! Anti-Semitism! Misogyny! Bigotry!" would rend the air.
I've flirted with girls at work before, happens all the time. Not sure what the hell you're talking about here. Clearly you've either never had a job before, never talked to a woman before, or both.If you are a man, and you "make a sexual advance towards" (which has now been diluted down to the point where a polite invitation to sound out whether a woman is available for a date qualifies as an equivalent to a groping) a woman co-worker, and she reports this, you are in a lot of trouble.
Yeah, if you grab their arse, you're gonna get into trouble. If you don't act like a giant douchebag, you won't get into trouble.....

Erm, no it's not. You're so far wide of the mark on this one I suggest you just stop right here, before you embarrass yourself any further.The problem is that it is possible for you to get into a lot of trouble for doing what you did.
