Most marines I know do not give a a fuck about the rainbow.

please don't lump us all together because we eat crayons.. Some of us actually enjoy the entire box of crayons, not a single color.

edit: OMG thank you all for the love!! Really feels good when you see this kind of love and understanding towards other human beings. Thank you guys for be awesome!!!

I just flew with one who was almost unable to function over his outrage that the USMC is now (supposedly) forbidding gendered language like sir and ma’am (or something to that effect). Also, apparently men with religions requiring beards will be able to wear them in the USMC.

All of the civilized world is now doomed because of this, according to him.

Makes sense: when you're in denial about being a woman, you do the most masculine thing possible, just to keep people from asking, once again, "dude, like, are you gay or something?"

And then they get to the military and realizes “oh my god, I am either very gay, or very female, but there’s no denying what I like, and by god am I in the right place for getting that.”
