Jul. 5th, 2003 01:03 pmWhile researching background information on the law regarding homosexuality in England during the 1960's for Man from UNCLE I discovered this very entertaining news article on 'how gay panic gripped [the] 1960's Royal Navy'. So I'm posting it for the entertainment and edification of anyone who's not on mfuslash...
Apparently Commanders worried at the possibility of losing men had confided to the then head of naval law that "50% of the fleet have sinned homosexually at some time in their naval career".
Wow, who'd have thunk it? ;)
