Let's see some responses accompanied by evidence, not just pre-formed opinions not supported by evidence.
I have heard that Israel's defense forces do not care at all about the sexual orientation of their soldiers. Can anybody confirm or refute this claim?
In ancient Greece, the most formidable fighting force was the Spartans. Military training was not in groups but was one-on-one. A boy was committed to an experienced warrior, who spent years teaching him, training him to fight, fighting at his side. Adversaries knew that fighting a Spartan would be challenging because the two men always fought together. They understood each other's abilities and psychology thoroughly because they lived together for years, and slept together as lovers. They were bonded in every way, and could predict each other's reactions. Together 24 hours a day for years, they knew each other's strengths and weaknesses. In combat they fought as a single warrior unit. Being gay did not weaken them.
