The issue is sex.

Sex, sex, sex.

Sex in cockpits (interesting word, that), sex in foxholes (there's another one), sex in torpedo tubes...

Like men can't control themselves.

Like women can't kick the ones who don't in the groin.

Like they all won't have something else to do.

Strength will continue to be brought up. It's a smoke screen for sex.

The fragile blossom/vessel of pleasure dichotomy, um, rides again! If the brass could only see us as more than the sum of several of our parts... >sigh<
