.03 percent of the population so there can not be that many. I would say less 1000 in total across all branches and that still may be too high.

Served 8 years, went all over the US on different training ops, went to Iraq a few times and saw other units from other bases across the US. Not 1 tranny was seen, did see a small number of gays. No trannys

Imo,This 15,000 number ppl are throwing out is all for shock effect. Much like the 90 million ppl dying from guns daily ect.

I'm not quite sure where people are getting their numbers. In some threads posters are saying 4,000 based on the 0.3% of the population being trans. But that doesn't makes sense as there are 2.2-2.4 million soldiers on active and reserve duty, which puts the number of trans at 6k-8k. So, the 4K low balls the number of trans people if you do a general population to military comparison--which is really stoopid.


That would be assuming that the whole 0.3 percent is of military age which would be 18-36. Then you have very few trannies that would dare to join our military ranks in the first place. So that .03 percent is shrinked dramatically.

I've been in the Air Force for a decade and have never seen one.

Gays? Sure.

Trannies? No.

FWIW, I don't have a problem with gays being in the military.

I just stuck my head in the barracks and yelled down the squad bay to ask whether we had any trannies in our platoon. None of the forty in the squad bay answered affirmatively.

Numbers of transgenders in the Military? Let's just check the most recent, certified data-base and get that answer.

What? No such data-base exists?

OK then, let's just extrapolate from some meaningless statistical generalization about the entire human population and throw in, oh I dunno, about a frick-ton of stupid assumptions -like the Military exactly mirrors the general population anyway- and then publish that as gospel. (funny how no one can seem to agree on a number, though).

Or, we could just make shite up...

Does that seem right? Military folks can the number be that high?


Considering that military personnel had no idea how many people around them were gay for decades, how do you think they're going to know this?

If a person is willing to hide something like this for the honor of serving their country, do you think for 5 seconds the average soldier was going to be aware of it?

I think a mistake a lot of people are making here is assuming transgendered = man wanting to be female.

I've never been in the military but it wouldn't surprise me if the women wanting to be dudes were far more likely to join. A lot of the military women I've seen seem to have that vibe - butch haircut, drive a truck, etc. You see this with cops as well, and cops are very similar to the military.

To be honest, a trangendered female would probably make a much better soldier than some regular chick, because they're more masculine and you don't have to worry about officers getting busted for affairs, etc.

Nice. Silly seamen.

1.) What's the difference between a straight sailor and a gay one?

2.) What's the difference between a straight/gay sailor and a transgendered sailor?









1.) 6 or 7 beers, pow!

2.) Borderline personality disorder
