Looking at these pictures, the one on the right i think speaks for itself, but I started wondering if the idea of making a soldier out of a child was some how indicative of straight masculinity.

Not only is the idea of sending a child off to fight a war pretty horrible but alot of people in the military were gay long before the dont ask don't tell BS came along. Infact one of the most militant cultures ever, Sparta was brimming with homosexuality. Often times when you see gatherings surrounding masculinity it's going to turn out to be a big gay fest.

Desmond the drag queen is definitely queer but when you see a large group of big buff guys all in good shape it's probably a group of homos where as if you see a group of guys who are mostly out of shape, and fat they are more likely straight.
