Can male soldiers wear lipstick, earrings and ripped clothes while off duty, but on post?

I always thought ripped clothing was ok as long as it wasn't excessive. Or maybe its like who cares?

When I served 1967-71, you acted with order and dignity at all times.

Watching the news lately, you would think they could do it while on duty, since you can choose your orientation now, maybe the loophole is sorry CSM, I am feeling female today.

If that BN CMD was out ranked by you then you should have relieved the BN CMD of duty and had the soldier stripped of his lipstick, earrings, jeweler and is pants before being sent to the brig for insubordination.

If a male wants to look like some kind of woman that he is not he had best do it on Halloween. Else he could get himself into a difficult situation of hazing the could be serious like being beat up. This is new ground that the Army has not had to deal with. Back in the 1980s we did deal with some men who acted like homos or gays but not like today. For a male to join the Army and then dress up like a woman off duty and then go out to the PX or other places is just plan sick to me.

wow...lol

Standards change all the time. I recall seeing cruisebooks from older sailers serving in the 70’s, long hair, full beards. Get over yourself, focus on the mission, and don’t concern yourselves with things above your pay grade.

Seriously.. why ask such a inane question,
Soldier? Read the regulations.. if they seem vague(matter of one’s personal opinion), talk to s’one that can protect your anonymity..

Why in the hell would any soldier want to do that? Is the individual en route to a Halloween Party or going to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"? If not, for the life of me I don't understand why a male soldier would wear lipstick and earrings. Guess I must (Thank God!) be really out of touch with current fashions.

"...wear lipstick, earrings and ripped clothes while off duty, but on post?"...only if he wants to keep getting jumped by those that disagree with him!
