Lesbian kiss unnecessary

Fri., Dec. 30, 2011

I realize that don’t ask, don’t tell has been repealed and now homosexuals can serve openly in the military. Today’s liberal attitude has opened the door for homosexual rights, and I don’t have a problem with that. However, I found the photo of female sailors sharing the coveted first kiss repulsive and morally offensive, and I also resent the news media rubbing my nose in it. I have been a subscriber to The Spokesman-Review for nearly 40 years, and if the Review continues to post pictures of people of the same sex sharing sexual intimacy I will cancel my subscription.
