I might
be stepping on some toes and starting a forest fire, but I guess, I'm just an
old-fashioned codger who seems out-of-step with the times as I fail to understand
the modern changes accepted as "progress.” There seems to be too much
social engineering, feel-good policies, massive loss of tradition, and a whole
different vocabulary on gender and race in the name of CRT or some sort of
equity. It’s hard to recognize the ol’ Canoe Club with every other shipmate
wearing pink panties and lipstick out on liberty.
I served
with gay shipmates back in my day and in general, I didn’t care one iota what a
shipmate's sexual orientation or preference was… none of my business. The
problem today is they want to make it everyone’s business and you better-gauddamned fall in line or else. Now we got a Transgender being selected into a
political position wearing an Admiral uniform heaving her arms out on the podium
like the haunches of a well-fed hippo and demanding we accept the social
engineering of fifty-three genders to the point you can’t get the VA to pay for
your back pain but if you want your twig and berries lopped off, its bought and
paid for by Uncle Sam at a moment’s notice… no questions asked!
The focus
shifted from helping the downtrodden to browbeating everyone else. Heterosexual white males in
positions of authority tremble in fear of charges of harassment while they’re protecting
careers and rears, and that seems more important than protecting the country. We
don't fight nations anymore. Instead, we find ourselves "at war" with
hard-to-pin-down religious concepts, oddball ideas, and unhinged zealots. We
can't fully define what victory looks like or explain to mothers what their
sons died for. Instead, we pull out of Afghanistan with the job unfinished while
the Taliban takes over and makes fools out of us.
This
whole new movement, in my opinion, isn’t even about equity, but instead seems to
be driven by revenge, power, domination and the humiliation of straight
white men. It’s highbrow water-boarding if I’d ever seen it. I know… I know…
some of you feel this is totally worthless garbage talk and I should be banned,
tarred, and feathered for voicing my views. After all, I’m a straight white male
who must be a chauvinist for leering at any woman’s tits!
When I
was in the ol’ Canoe Club, I got to experience the joy of seeing the first women on
combat ships. It really was alright in the beginning. If you asked a gal for a
blowjob she told you that was a silly name for oral sex…
“Anyone
who tells you he likes to get blown is just trying to feed you some hot air …
wise up, or he’ll make a sucker out of you.”
Female
sailors were fun to be around, and they had the vernacular to match any savvy
sailor. I remember a really cute gal checked onboard and one of the other
females telling me…
“She
claims to be a virgin but she’s dropped more drawers than a sloppy dressmaker!”
But in
today’s Navy, there seems to be a bandsaw edge to the disgruntled genders, as they watch for any
slight so that they can show that they aren´t going to take it while they huff
and puff and show their indignant feeling of dissent over the actions in which they
disapprove. These young sailors elect to have a good cry and the Chief will
murmur support into their ears instead of taking any corrective action.
It’s not
a wonder the military is in shambles. Morale is lousy, officers are bailing
out, and recruiting is down, all largely because of social engineering. Nobody will
do squat about it, because that would require bucking the progressives and
their fifty-three genders of whom they are terrified.
I have in
mind training bras for the boys and maybe penis-shaped flag poles. Just
imagine, a penis flag pole might double as a PRC antenna, and you could fly the
rainbow flag from it since the Ensign is considered sexist, racist, or whatever
the “ist” of the day may be.
From the berthing
compartments come prancing men in dresses and panties, the surgically altered
inverts, and sadomasochistic enthusiasts. It’s like the ol’ Wog Queen ceremony
but on a much grander scale. I wish I was kidding, but it ain’t the ol’ Canoe
Club we were accustomed to.
I have no
problems with what consenting adults choose to do or sleep with on their own
time. They can sleep with the sheep or any other farm animal for all I care but
I don’t need to know about it. It’s when they force their opinions and ideas
onto others and demand they bend the knee that bothers me. Like Forrest Gump…
“That’s
all I got to say about that…”
Well said and all true. Bravo Zulu from one old salt to another.
ReplyDeleteEye Eye...well said, what everyone Knows but fear to Say.
ReplyDeleteThat is so well put I can’t add anything to it. The sea spray from that old salt really has rocked the boat!
ReplyDeleteThe "WOKE" assholes, politicians and the Pentagon brass, are hell bent on destroying the United States military and the worthless commander-in-chief is the leader of the pack.
ReplyDeleteBravo Zulu. Perfectly said for a lot of us old salts!
ReplyDeleteIt has always been the goal
ReplyDeleteAs a white male, I totally enjoy learing at nice titties. Been that way for years. They show them, I'll look at them. Women are poetry in motion, each beautiful in their own way.
ReplyDeleteGreat article .It appears to me my old Navy is gone. So sad.
ReplyDeleteYou spoke for tens of thousands of Dungaree Navy! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDamn right.
ReplyDeleteHere's my comment... 54 years ago, there were gays in the service. But they were mocked and made fun of. But they found out that if they claimed claimed claimed they were really women in that wereclaimed claimed women in the wrong bodies claimed that they were
