"Comfort" was a reason for DADT implementation but is no longer a justification (And a weak argument for DADT)since the majority are comfortable with gays. It was a logical reason pre DADT-repeal, but now it isn't.
If you say "comfort" is A reason, then you are implying that there exist multiple reasons. Therefore, it does not make sense to end a process on just one reason unless that one reason is the main reason.

Ok, why was it then?
I did, in the very next sentence.

So, you want gays in the military but don't want DADT repealed? Why?
Being "comfortable" working with gays isn't the same thing as living and showering with gays. The acceptance of homosexuality did not change society's sexual conservativeness. You're purposely avoiding the difference.

Hey, this is a DADT thread. If you want your gender & racial examples to be equivalent then you have to be able to apply them to DADT. So, if you can poll the womans & get them to show that they don't want segregated showers, it's equivalent to the repeal of DADT.
Nice try. You said that the only two human traits that can not be logically discriminated against were skin color and sexuality. I got you to admit that we do accept racial discrimination. So, that means that you believe it's ok to discriminate against every human trait except for sexuality.
As for the women, that only goes to show that you really didn't read post 206.

If only you could clearly communicate what your argument WAS as opposed to going off on tangents about race & gender...
Further evidence that you did not read post 206. Life isn't just circles and squares and in black and white. Not everything can be explained in two sentences. Some issues and problems are just complex by nature. Post 206 touches on every aspect that is involved with the decision to support DADT. I'm sorry if you were expecting "gays are icky".

I'll get right on that right after you give me a reason why it's ok to discriminate against a guy in the military who likes to suck ****. Promise.
Post 206. Ok, now answer the question. By that little tactic, I think it's safe to say that you don't see a difference between the two. I don't need your admittance, your actions spoke it for you.
