!agree

Im so glad Im in the submarine community, dont have to deal with this.

Yeah not a single female at my command, but that is changing. Thank god i dont have anything to do with anybody Im a division of 1 that only answers to the CMC and CO

You straight up would be.

I just keep my mouth shut and move away from any convo like that in public

Nope protecting my job. I dont need a sexual harrasement claim

standard is different in the military

no they wouldnt. Standard is much lower. as long as youre more likely than not to have commited a crime you are guilty by the UCMJ

Pretty much. Even if the evidence is clearly the opposite way it can be ignored

Pretty much. This is why i keep my head down and mouth shut. Im an E-6 so im just waiting for my medical seperation to be processed and get out

Yeap Navy got this way after the Tailhook scandal

This was back in the 90s

HAHAHAHA youre wrong

SHARP exists for a reason

Its a shitshow. Ive always advised my junior sailor to avoid base bunnies and other navy personnel in relationships.

Its usually to get a supervisor back for poor performance reviews or to cover their own ass against bad conduct.

Alt-F4

One of the guys on my boat got sent to the brig for sexual assault. He was having a consensual affair that he had documented proof that it was consensual. He spent 3 years in the Brig.

She filed a sexual assault claim the day before her husband pulled in

Command Promptly threw him under the bus

Funny thing is the civilian PD took his side and corroborated his story

"Public Image"

The vast majority of sailors and soldiers do not trust their chain of command

At least since the late 80s

"Protect women and children"

Ive pushed away most people, got a very small friends group. And I'm moving from submarines to a very male dominated field in the civilian world.

Thats because men have always been held to a higher standard

I wouldnt say that, more-so given leniency due to being more emotional people

Kinda treated like toddlers not held accountable for outburst, because they couldnt help their nature

Luckily my divorce was easy. Me and the ex are still friends

Oh god code brown brb

im back. Lost about 2 lbs of poop

Ill just be over building guns.

I just blocked him

Barely coherent language.

Doof

Yes

Ignoring someone is usually the polite thing to do.

ANd be safe

Too bad

Yeap jilted women

thats why I avoid bars

If i do go to one, i find the security cameras and stay in clear view.

hahaha, i met my current gf through my old gunners mate buddy

HAHAHAHHAHA

Oakland?

How about they stay and fix their own country

We fought for ours, how about they fight for theirs?

Haha thats racist. I mean I like cali burritos

Like the food

Yeah spent some time in San Diego for some training

Hated the traffic

Now im stuck in CT, roads are bad and the people suck

Yeah i stayed on base most of the time studying.

Greyman is life

Its how i got through all my port calls with 0 issues

But still had a blast

I got a girl that works too hard to be caught up in the feminist things. Shes a keeper

its funny ive shown her some things and her opinion on most people is that theyre lazy or entitled

Nah got divorced in SC. No alimony and child support was fair

And is adjusted every year based on our salaries

thats why i say im lucky

She went shopping yesterday and bought me a bunch of stuff with her own money

it was fucking weird

ive never had a woman do that

Haha no me and the ex are still friends. she knows she fucked up in the relationship, but there was just too much time with me away.

there was a/s

for sarcasm

@mikeflarkin she feels guilty because she isnt allowed to drive due to siezures, so i help her out. Even though i love driving and dont mind she still goes out of her way to make it up. Her thought is relationships should be partnerships. Its very surprising,

Yeap, shes got absence siezures.

Not grand mal, absence. Ive got post TBI epilepsy, that causes balance issues.

Im allowed to drive she isnt

@Grenade123 most people are too selfish to be in a true partnership

Hell I'm still adjusting to it, because im not used to having a partner.

Thats why i got divorced 6-9 month deployments every year

Nuclear Machinist Mate on submarines

Funny enough no cheating

just wasnt happy

we didnt let it get that point. and she was too lazy to cheat

Haha well if she did i dont really care

both the kids are mine they were tested.

they got fucked with my blood type

O negative is a bitch for transfusions.

Haha, its funny i actually give my ex dating advise. There wasnt any ill will between us

Im far from the normal however

No most women are just not worth the headache

hahahaha

i tell her to avoid military guys

Shes actually changed for the better

Oh i agree.

Got a job, lost a bunch of weight and is a better mom. But that is not the norm

Haha

Talking with a bunch of guys my divorce was nowhere near the norm

Thats some fucked up shit

Thats a hard line to cross

Maybe it was the distance that helped. We got divorced while resideing in different states

Man i was really fucking lucky
