Who Doesn’t Want to Shower With Barney Frank?Posted on Dec 23, 2010
The congressman tackles what appears to be a vexing implication of gays in the military for some conservatives. As Frank puts it, “We don’t get ourselves dry-cleaned. We tend to take showers. ...” And “Do you think that gyms should have separate showers for gay and straight people?” Advertisement Previous item: Obama Tallies Up Year-End Wins Next item: ‘Left, Right & Center’: What’s in a Political Label?

As a card carrying homo myself, I say emphatically that showers should be integrated. I personally like looking at straight men’s genitalia and buttocks while they aren’t noticing. “We” all do it, all the time. Be nervous, be very nervous!
And I would shower with Mr Frank.

IF he were as witty wet as he is dry, I would shower with Mr Frank. I am sure it would be entertaining.

If I needed a shower I would be indifferent as to the presence or absence of Mr. Frank, as long as he maintained proper social decorum.
As he himself points out, people have been showering with homosexuals as well as other kinds of people in the military, schools, locker rooms and so forth ever since they had showers, jokes about dropping the soap while in the Navy to the contrary notwithstanding. I think most of the tension comes from people who define themselves as heterosexual but have significant homosexual urges; for them, I suppose, being in the presence of naked members of the sex of repressed interest must be rather disturbing. I don’t see why it would bother anyone else.

To be truthful, Mr. Frank does not turn me on so the answer is no, I wouldn’t want to show with him.
George Clooney, yes!!

Anderson:
Really. Expect more of this idiocy as the new dispensation festers in the military Petrie dish.
Anarcissie:
Do YOU want to shower with Barney? NO? Knuckledragger!
Oh, I’m sorry. You DO want to shower with Barney.
This headline falls under the “Do you still beat your wife?” category.

The whole idea of this is crazy, people have been unknowingly showering with gays, since elementary school. Please stop being a trouble maker just to get some attention.
