<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrbrklyn, post: 490508, member: 4381&quot;]This is irrelevant to the conversation.&nbsp; Everyone in the Military wears the SAME UNIFROM.&nbsp; They are trained from Basic training to all speak the same body english, to stand at attention, to salute superior officers, and to respond with correct verbal and physical cues.&nbsp; Nobody is discussing here the discrimination that exists because of race, or gender.&nbsp; It is disengenous to throw that into this discussion where it has no place.</p><p><br /></p><p>People don&#039;t have to learn to stop reading the communication of body language, and dress.&nbsp; And in fact they can&#039;t, at least and remain human.&nbsp; Furthermore, people can not be expected to stop communicating through their dress, nor can you do so in a healthy society.&nbsp; Of course in the &quot;Service&quot; they straight jacket that communication as much as possible in order to create universal conformity and to create identification with and to the Military.&nbsp; And that conformity of dress is essential to the working of military units.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coinnewbie01 has exercised his right to express himself by putting pictures on his body and to wear ripped tee shirts.&nbsp; That is his right, and he purposely communicating information to everyone else around him when he exercises that right.&nbsp; If people don&#039;t respond as he desires to what he is saying, he can either live with that, change what he speaking through his dress to others, or respond in an abusive fashion and show his displeasure.&nbsp; The choice is his.&nbsp; He is chosing a path to communicate with others and others are responding in kind.&nbsp; It&#039;s all normal, expected, and amoral behavior essential to human culture.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
