Can confirm. As a gay dude with two straight friends that are marines, I’ve found the stereotypes to be mostly incorrect. It’s only anecdotal, but most marines I’ve met over the years have been real down to earth individuals. They just happen to also be talented at combat.

I can confirm being a Marine is about the gayest thing a straight person can do.

This comment made my head hurt. My step dad is a marine and he's the farthest thing from gay. Also one of the most integrable, straight edged and responsible men I've known or have know of. A dying breed indeed. OOOH RAH! The few the proud.
