Thank goodness I'm no longer a serving officer in the Royal Air Force. Married Quarter for homosexuals is a step too far. Having served for many years in Transport/Air Support Command, which entailed spending a lot time down the route, the thought of a couple of queers living in the next door married quarter and the message it was sending to my two young sons would have been very worrying, even distressing. I'm sure a high percentage of the wives would have felt the same. It would have been bad for morale, bad for pride in the service and due to an unhappy missus, bad for my marriage.
