Yeah, Asians tend to be the worst racists on Earth. Everybody hates everybody else, as far as countries go. Japanese folks especially hate Okinawans, and Okinawa is part of Japan.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about the girls: All those gay scoutmasters will show them how to paint their toenails and braid their hair...

Seriously though, some girls might just make the Boy Scouts a little less homoerotic. Honestly, Boy Scouts was my introduction to gay sex. Not personally, mind you, but by observation and stories. Lots of summer camps have been coed for decades.

I was never a Scout but summer camp was definitely where I figured out that there really was such a thing as gay people. Hard as it might be to believe, I don't think I ran across any openly gay counselors but it didn't matter because there were fellow campers who were gay.

If any of the counselors were, they were mighty good at hiding it.
The camp was run by the local military academy, wouldn't you just know it? ROTFMOL

Very funny, parents probably sent their gay son off to boys-only military school "to straighten them out". There they found lots of other gay boys whose parents had sent THEM, etc.

That's exactly my take on it, because for the most part the gay guys were fairly well balanced and did not exhibit any detestable personality flaws, they were just gay.
There were one or two overly aggressive types but I suspect their issue had less to do with their sexuality and more to do with what they were taught by their parents and peers.

Simply put, they were bullies. Gay bullies but bullies just the same.
The only sticky problem in all of this is the fact that it was circa 1969 or so, and pretty much none of them would actually admit to being gay, not in the open sense of the concept.
They weren't "out".

Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
