What is the issue, exactly? Is it just the "ick" factor? Is it the idea of being observed by someone who might be attracted to you, even if that is never acknowledged?
Cause really, if that's all it is then sack up and get over yourself.
I'm not particularly well-versed in military day-to-day. Women are provided separate quarters, and for that second reason, right? If that's indeed the case, then it only seems fair to provide separate rooming for gay and lesbian service folk.
But if the logistics/fairness of providing separate rooms is the best case against including homosexuals in the marines, then I say "tough luck." It's a very small issue compared to the importance of allowing gays to openly serve.
