First off, thanks for your service. I take it you had some personal experiences that make you say that about your daughter. I only spent 6 years in the Nav and I know there was sexual harassment going on. Hell, I even took part in it. Not realizing that commenting on your hard nipples in the cold air conditioning might somehow be offensive to you. I know now that is in fact sexual harassment and low class on top of that.

But females can now go on warships! They didn't use to do that in MY day! (gawd, I sound old)

Aarrgghh, it was a MAN's ship! With real MEN! Doing MANly things! With other MEN!
