Video: Tonight I’m Fuckin’ You (Audio NSFW)

The heterosex isn't a turn-on for me, but the song certainly is. It puts the non-explicit version to shame — with the change of one word.

Gabriel Arana: Thoughts on DADT’s demise

Thoughts on DADT's demise

I have a piece at The American Prospect about the demise of "don't ask, don't tell":

…

As Judge Virginia Phillips noted in striking down the law this past September, for all the talk about "homosexual behavior" and the comfort of straight soldiers, DADT was always primarily a restriction on speech. In a sense, this is what made DADT such an abhorrent and fundamental assault on individual freedom: Like being forbidden to speak your own name, it denied gay people the simple right to identify themselves. As queer theorist Judith Butler pointed out in a well-known 1997 essay, the 1993 law was primarily concerned with giving others extensive guidelines for determining who counts as gay, "a homosexual is one whose definition is to be left to others, one who is denied the act of self-definition with respect to his or her sexuality, one whose self-denial is a prerequisite for military service." ...

When the president signs the repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" today, it will strip anti-gay prejudice of the state's imprimatur, allowing culture to happen where it usually does -- in the everyday interactions between people who are very different, sometimes radically so, but still call themselves Americans. Allowing service members to know their gay colleagues is so threatening to religious conservatives because, as studies have shown, actually knowing a gay person is the best predictor of how one views homosexuality. Once service members can utter the words "I am gay" without an official state sanction, the culture-war battle has largely been won.

I'd be curious to hear what AmericaBlog readers think of this analysis. I've always thought the most damaging thing about "don't ask, don't tell" was that it prevented straight soldiers from actually knowing one of the colleagues they knew and respected was gay -- in other words, facing the fact that their prejudices and stereotypes about gay people weren't true. As I've said before, DADT not only perpetuated anti-gay prejudice, it withheld the antidote.

Senator Harry Reid returns Lt. Dan Choi’s West Point ring after the DADT repeal signing ceremony. Lt. Choi tweeted, “The next time I get a ring from a man, I expect it to be for full, equal, American marriage.”
