Servicemembers Legal Defense Network is printing letters from gay and lesbian soldiers. From a military chaplain:
It is easy for those who do not live in fear of being outed’ to say: We must wait and examine this law further.’ But when you have to watch what you say, where you go, and who you talk to, this erodes the human person. When you live in fear that the wrong pronoun slips through your lips, or a co-worker see you in public with your life long partner and you respond this is just a friend’, this degrades your human self worth.
