Damn you, plot bunnies. Damn you.

Browsing through Google Books, I stumbled across a pyschology book for the Armed Services from 1945 which contains a chapter on homosexuality. Fair warning: because of the time period this book was written, it does not have the most enlightened view on homosexuality or even sexuality in general.

I just need to keep repeating the following: I will not write Captain America fic inspired by this chapter. I will not write Captain America fic inspired by this chapter. I will not write Captain America fic inspired by this chapter.I will not...

Bonus: I love the fact that this book has a chapter titled "The Fighting Man's Sexual Problem." If I were to write a story about Captain America based on this book, which I am not I swear, I would totally title it that.

Ooooh. I am going to enjoy browsing through this.

At one of the museums in DC, I saw a bunch of Army posters talking about avoiding prostitutes in really kitschy graphics. It was hilarious and I imagine the movies are going to be just as good.

I am totally not encouraging you to write that. Not at all.

(Did that reverse psychology work on you?)

I admit, if life was a hectic mess, I would probably already have a couple pages of this written.

Just checked it out (page 404 for those curious). It's not as bad as I anticipated although you can tell there's favoring of heterosexuality.

The child in me though couldn't help but giggle a little at the word "gonads". I know it's the name for a human organ, but... well.. *flail*

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
