Imho, making hedro males shower and live with homosexual males is the same as opening the female showers to the straight guys. Its a very uncomfortable situation and is only asking for trouble.
Well stated, and I very strongly agree.

This is my only objection to gays in the military. I think that if the military provided separate sleeping and bath facilities for gay and straight soldiers, there could be no further legitimate objection from anyone.
