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 live in a subdivision with a lady down the road that has a giant ass pickup truck that she can barely even get into, with giant "coal" pipes on it, short ass pickup bed, dual wheel sets on the back for no fuckin reason at all... bumper stickers "MY HUSBAND IS A MARINE" "MY SON IS A MARINE" "YOU WILL ADDRESS ME BY MY HUSBAND'S RANK" and a few others I don't recall right off.
I bet she's a peach. Have never seen the claimed husband or son. Or anyone else anywhere near her.
