Wait, I am confused. Is it ok for marines to be openly gay in the military? I know it was tolerated with lesbians... (double standards 
)
But when my husband was in you could get discharged for being openly gay. Never even saw two dudes holding hands at events.

Which part?
The fact that lesbians could hold hands and kiss at events and the gay men couldn't?
Or the picture in general?
If that guy wasn't just discharged 5 sec earlier, that jump kiss was reckless imo.
I don't care what religion, gender, sexuality you are in the military. As long as you take your oath to the constitution and country seriously you are welcome to serve and protect.

DADT was repealed. Openly gay servicemen no longer get the boot. Thank you O'Bama.Wait, I am confused. Is it ok for marines to be openly gay in the military? I know it was tolerated with lesbians... (double standards

(The pic wasn't taken at an event. The serviceman was home on leave and his partner was there to greet him)

I could tell which marines were gay/bi with DADT in affect anyways. If the main purpose was to protect gay/lesbians from being physically/verbally attacked, i think it wasn't that effective.
People can tell what you are into without you saying. People who have a problem with it will not hang around you or avoid the subject, depending on how uncomfortable it makes them.
Always gonna be the crazy people who will attack them for their choice. But you can't avoid it forever.
I guess what I am saying, is that I don't think the policy needed to be in place.

Being gay is no more a choice than being straight. You are what you are. Period.

It's always been easier for openly gay women then men. Military or not. Probably because women are not beating up other women (typically) just for being gay. But there are a lot of men will beat the piss out of another man just for being gay.

I hope my children grow up in a world where people can be civil twards each other. Theres much bigger things going on in the world than who someone chooses to love. My thirty year old brother is dating a 49 year old woman, shes hot, who cares, she treats him like a king and theyre great together. Who cares

Yeah, but like I said, even with DADT guys can figure out who is who. It's kinda obvious after living with another dude for months that he doesn't go after chicks and doesn't seem interested in them at all.
It's only the crazy fucks who will beat someone just for being gay.

I was not aware how many crazy fucks there were until I visited the Midwest this past summer. When my date damn near got beaten just for being my date (He was Asian and I'm white) we were pulled aside by the gay DJ (who was NOT out) and he warned us not to come back to this town together because they would literally kill him. I, of course, thought this guy was exaggerating, just scared, etc etc. No. They really are that close minded in that town. And if I would've taken the time to look around before, I probably would have noticed that he actually was the ONLY guy, the only PERSON, I saw in that town the entire time I was there, that wasn't white. I'm dead serious. Which is interesting because just two towns over is a huge college town with so much diversity...but this particular little area still has active KKK members and everything. Here I thought that was just a small group of crazies in the boondies that was still so hateful they'd hurt someone just for being different, but it's sad that there are entire towns like that. And it wasn't even just the men in this town, either. I was personally surrounded by 3 girls at the same time he was being surrounded by guys.

He knows that. He was being sarcastic, or better yet, rhetorical.
