I was in the military and my experience was wildly different. If you displayed anything other than hyper masculinity you were a little bitch that anyone could do anything to. Every single woman I served with was sexually assaulted and several of them raped. The rapists were never punished beyond a transfer to another duty station. People constantly stole from each other. Fuck the supposed comradery in the military.

That sounds shitty. I'm sorry your experience in the military was that way, but I wouldn't paint the whole with a big brush like that. There are good people and bad people both in and out of the military.
