don’t ask, don’t tell—unless you’re talking to the iron eagle himself, louis gossett jr
remember when in ‘an officer and a gentlemen’ louis gossett jr won an oscar because he told his recruits that ‘they’re only steers and queers in texas, and i don’t see any horns on you’? well, i would’ve said back that i don’t see any horns on you. burn!
but then maybe he would’ve responded with ‘i guess by saying that you’re conceding that you’re a queer.’ to which i would’ve said, ‘no, that’s your saying that you believe in, not mine. you can’t hold me to that if i don’t believe in it. but i can hold you to it because you DO believe it. queer.’ then i would’ve got a boot to the face and that would’ve been that.
