Applesauce

This guy says the best soldiers are those trying to show the world that they’re not pansies

There are all kinds of homophobes and misogynists in this world, but the funniest of them are dudes like William Lind, who runs something called the Center for Cultural Conservatism.

Lind’s got a problem with homosexuals and women serving in the U.S. military, which he thinks should be the exclusive province of real men:

One of the most basic human factors is that men fight to prove they are real men. They join fighting organizations, whether the U.S. Army or U.S. Marine Corps or MS-13, because those organizations are made up of fighting men. Their membership is a badge of honor that says, “We’re not sissies or pansies. We are men who fight, serving alongside other men who fight.” That tells others and themselves they are real men.
