A few years ago the American Psychoanalytic Association found that DADT has psychological ill effects on gay and lesbian soldiers. Timothy Kincaid comments:
One has to wonder if the stress on that young straight conservative
serviceman being forced to coexist with a gay soldier even remotely
compares to the young gay (probably conservative) servicewoman being
forced to hide, deny, and lose access to her support network and even
her partner. Somehow it makes all the deference to the fragile
sensibilities of the sheltered homophobe seem a bit disingenuous.
