  • Even way back during the gold rush, folks in the Bay Area were flouting gender norms - crossdressing wasn’t uncommon and there’s documentation of "wedded bachelors" with an "artistic inclination" having a long-term relationship.

    And as we all know the Navy itself is also the gayest of all the military branches.

      Not quite the burn it used to be... But we also know it's more accurate than we used to know.

      ​@@john2g1I'll take things you wouldn't say to a Navy man's face for 200. It's funny it's the pro gay side using it as a burn though. If it's true it shouldn't be a burn lol.

      @@bartsanders1553 Of course it does. It's an interesting part of the culture and is just one part of the US's rich tapestry. A more important question may be, "why do people give a shit that there's gay people?" I do not understand people get so bent out of shape about another individuals consensual adult sexuality.
