Were they injecting people with hormones back then?
And I'm pretty sure people who had their genitals removed didn't do it voluntarily most of the time.
no,but i am sure many would if that was an option. As long as people don't force it on someone when they are young people should let them live how they want
I think a lot of the hormone stuff is too new to accurately gauge the long term effects on the body.
Or mind for that matter.
I wouldn't care if trans people were in logistical units but I wouldn't trust them in combative roles.
cis hetero people also have elective procedures as well that's long term effects are not fully known. dont think any of that stuff should be banned either,live and let live
Live and let live is fine when other people's lives aren't on the line.
has there ever been a case of a trans soldier who was incompetent due to elective medical issues
It's not something I've studied.
But generally when people have mental health issues it's not good for them to be in combat.
considering how many soldiers have pti,people would be naive to think their arent cis het soldiers who dont have mental health issues
They shouldn't be in either.
Lots of people soldiers or not have mental health issues and still handle doing their day to day work effectively. People with 1 mental health issue or another compose a great swath of society
who know i am sure some of brave men who stormed the beached at normandy coudl have had undiagnosed bipolar disorder or a family history of depression
When you are desperate you take everyone.
Normally you want the best of the best.
what do you call the era we are living in now? An era of endless overseas mission which runs concurrent with public health crisis in obesity that lowers the pool of those eligable for combat. An era where you only take the best of the best or one you make exceptions for people.
I'd say if we are able to waste lives overseas for pointless wars then we aren't desperate.
Pretty soon the left is going to attack the military's disqualification of obese recruits as 'fat-shaming'. If it hasn't already.
I think the trans in the military issue is about economics to the left, all about getting Uncle Sam to pay for gender reassignment.
Yeah they do want the military to pay for that.
We all know that trannies aren't stupendously more patriotic than normal Americans. LGBTism doesn't tilt in that direction at all.
yes .......... its a vital economic issue to potentially get rid of the cost of a procedure that will be had like not even 1/10th of 1 percent of the military. It wouldn't even effect 1 percent of the militarys medical budget
Doesn't matter. It's something they have to pay for themselves.
In other words they're medically unfit to serve.
creative does it bother you that military officers viagra is payed for by the govt instead of out of their own pockets since its not a medical necessity
Yeah I don't get why people can't pay for that themselves.
They don't bring anything to the military that remotely justifies the military paying for their gender reassignment.
do people really want to go through a fine toothed comb through everyone medical care who sacrifices their lives for us
Things that everyone across the board needs should be covered.
Dev,why what do you mean they dont bring anything,if they are putting on the uniform and willing to sacrifice their life for the country
the Viagra thing is also been misrepresented cause yes it is a penis pill but it and its other brands also help with heart issues
They don't bring anything that a soldier without GD doesn't bring better.
dev https://www.military.com/daily-news/2018/04/21/goal-80000-recruits-year-wont-be-met-army-secretary-says.html Unless people cut back defense industry budgets and scale back overseas engagements thei'r aren't enough new recruitments to where its smart just to kick out people cause they are trans
The military doesn't need GD soldiers anymore than it needs obese soldiers.
its not that big of a deal having trans people in the military
I would rather the military cut back its intervention in shithole countries actually.
There's simply no reason to recruit or even accept people with GD.
and as far as obese soldiers go i wouldn't be surprised if the weight requirements were changed from what they were 20-30 years ago.Ie someone who might have been 10 pounds too fat in the 80's might meat the minimum requirements to enlist now
