the story from my brother-in-law of one soldier who left his SAW unattented for a long as time on a join Amry and Iraqi base, who wasn't supposed to even BE a squad gunner was one of those situations.
Okay, back to trans. What would you say about a person who goes all the way - surgery to have a vagina and very female vulva. A decade later is happily playing in a big city orchestra?
Or a lawyer? Or a doctor?
Is that mental illness?
useless POS tried to get the NCO fired for doing corrective training by making him low crawl to his weapon which the NCO had taken and put far way, saying the enemy stole the weapon and killed everyone, go get it back.
I know all three
Being trans is by the definition mentall illnes.
wasn't there a study that showed trans sign up to fight at a higher rate than the normal population?
What is it preventing a person from doing? What is the disability?
@Grenade123 , I've heard that, too.
I think you have missunderstood definition of mentall illness.
if you want to go by the DSM5, say goodbye to like 80% of the military
I'm board certified in psychiatry. I'm listening. 😃
Exactly, @Grenade123 .
Dont say you are pushing that mentall illness to kids.
Probably 1/4 of the enlisted military has ADD.
"oh, you survived basic training? well according to the DSM5 you now probably have some version of PTSD, and probably several other side effects.... technically these mental illnesses keep you alive but normal people call them weird so goodbye"
I'm a hospital administrator
is ADD even really a mental illness? Thats one of those where i feel like people who think they know better go "this is clearly abnormal" when its not, its just a trait that is useful.
in some instances.
Diabetes Mellitus is a trait that is useful
It's real enough to shove pills down the throats of kids for.
It's still a disease
Same with sickle cell anemia. Very useful trait to have...if you get malaria.
Diabetes is life enhancing if you have long fasts
huh
That's why Somoans have it so much
They selected for it so they could do long stretches without food as they went from island to island
Disease =/= bad
So people who get diabetes they should take long fasts to live longer with the disease or live longer than someone without the disease?
It depends on the circumstances
yeah, as advanced as medical science is, i still think we know jack shit
@Malt_Hitman , actually nowadays they should take insulin
This is the 21st century 😃
"this is a disease"
"why"
"because it is detrimental to your health when you shove 500lbs of food down your throat every day"
"How is that... what?"
That's just a variation on "current year" arguments.
Well we now are seeing male hemophiliacs have progeny for the first time in Earth history. Why? Because modern medicine!
Now *there* is an ethical dilemma for you.
