The US Military still exists!

I'm confused by this. When I lived in the dorms last year, and I know it's still the same as I asked(Air Force), we could have anyone in our rooms from 0600-2359, and have sex all we wanted provided we were at work when required, the person was legally allowed on base and such. Seeing that you were receiving training, it's possible the Navy is like the AF, and has different rules for training squadrons. Also if you were on a ship, that could be a bit different also. I know for deployed members it was looked into, and according to what they found with GO-1 (the desert, and S. Korea during the little temper tanturm by the north) it never explicitly forbade sex, just having an opposite sex member in your quarters. This is where the issue came up. EDIT: I hope I understood your correctly as I just got off of a 12 hour shift.

I expected it to be a non-event. The gay jokes continue, people still get offended, said people are still told to shut up and color as the work is completed as normal. If you are in the military, then you should have a thick skin plain and simple. What I'm not happy about is how the rules are playing out. Under GO-1, it does not actually say that you can't have sex. It does make it against the rules to become pregnant, or have an opposite sex member in your quarters. However, if you are gay, you can openly have a same sex member in your quarters, and do your business. There is also no chance of pregnancy this way. That is an issue, and there is not good way to prevent gay sex from happening, as it can lead to a lot of he said, she said. This inherently is discriminatory towards hetero-sexual relationships in essence turning the tables on the problem. This is from a discussion I had with a couple friends who just returned from the desert.
