Under the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell, Don't Pursue, Don't Harass" Department of Defense policy, gay men and women are allowed to serve in the military, but they are not allowed to disclose their sexual orientation. This study was performed to determine the incidence of active duty military personnel seeking care at a Gay Men's Health Clinic. Nine percent of the clients, who had served between June and August 2002, were active duty U.S. Navy sailors. They all expressed fears of being discharged from the military when asked why they did not access military healthcare. The "DADTDPDH" policy breeds distrust between men who have sex with men (MSM) service-members and their healthcare provider and this ensures inadequate healthcare.
根据国防部“不问、不说、不追查、不骚扰”的政策,男女同性恋者可以在军队服役,但不允许透露自己的性取向。本研究旨在确定现役军人在男同性恋健康诊所寻求治疗的发生率。在2002年6月至8月期间服役的客户中,9%是现役美国海军水手。当被问及为何不使用军队医疗服务时,他们都表达了对被开除军籍的恐惧。“不问、不说、不追查、不骚扰”政策在男男性行为者(MSM)军人与其医疗服务提供者之间滋生了不信任,这确保了医疗服务不足。
