There is and always has been a wide "gender-Spetrum" in all species. Some Plains tribes recognized 5 categories of sexual orientation, perhaps because they had observed it in all creatures. It is a Nasty artificial construct to say Male & Female are "it"!!!!! And if your gawd Is all powerful, why did he/she/ it create "others"??? Could it be to test your loving-kindness as you were commanded to do? Gee, i dunno......

This article displays a woeful ignorance about submarines...they are in constant contact with the world, otherwise how would they know to launch their missiles? The Captain might keep info to himself, of course, IMO a kindness in this case. And No deployment is longer than 8 months, sometimes less, each sub has 2 crews to minimize port time and keep the crews mentally healthy. I live in Groton, CT, Submarine Capitol of the World, have many friends on subs, and built subs for 13 years, so I do know what I am talking about.
