Gay sweethearts
[edit]{{Unreferenced|date=November 2006|section}}
With the introduction of homosexuals into the armed forces actor John Barrowman has been on a number of occasions named as agay sweetheart, conservatives reject this and encourage Barrowman to be referred to as a "Sweetmeat" rather than a "Sweetheart" so as not to sully by association the name of previous female sweethearts with the idea of sodomy.
Lack of definition
[edit]Article contains historical examples, current examples, countries which uses (awards?) it, but there's nothing about this title - what does it mean (i.e. criteria, even if it's not formal), if it's official (e.g. recognized by army) or not, if the receiving the title is a formal thing (i.e. awarded by some body) or just something's up to opinion (like "the smiling president" which is title based on opinion, not something given formally). The article itself is foggy - there's something about other countries, but is it the same there (per questions above)? I guess it might be obvious for somebody from anglo-saxon culture, but for somebody who wants to know what's that, there's nothing to see here. There's a single clue - somebody was awarded, but if it's mainly through ENSA, it means there are other bodies and even I can give this title, so the first person should be "the first person who received title from X", because other bodies may disagree or some unknown organization might awarded it to man earlier and they have right to do that. Or they don't have right? Well, there's no way to know this basing on this article.Krzysiu (talk) 21:59, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
