The Atlantic: Coming Out as Transgender Made Me a More Effective CIA Officer

today's CIA embraced my transition. Colleagues shared stories of LGBT loved ones, and other transgender officers started to come out. Director John Brennan began wearing a rainbow lanyard, and a CIA booth stands at D.C.’s annual Gay Pride Festival.

I relish the idea that I'm ISIS's nightmare: trans, gay, Jewish, CIA, and worst of all, female.

It turns out that starting over as a transwoman is not all sequins and makeup. I joked that there should be night classes to prepare for the realities of working while female: toiling harder for less recognition, being interrupted by men who think they’re giving a TED talk. I knew I'd “arrived” as a woman when someone made a sexist joke about my driving.
My life as a trans CIA officer has made me privy to state secrets: Women pay more for dry cleaning. Chocolate is amazing on estrogen. My email is filled with yogurt ads and warnings that my fertility window is closing.

I'm sure it's a nightmare for lots of people that deal with it.

Look I'm fine with people wanting to identify as whatever they want. Call yourself a trex mutant gemanic taser machine for all I care but at the end of the day their chromosome biological DNA should still be their gender of record and they shouldn't be able to use said DNA science deniers to abuse the system and compete in women's sports or use female facilities. Period

The transgendered gay thing always threw me off. So they are a transgendered female (born a male) who likes women, so they are really straight?

Oh look, more democrats denying science.

I feel bad for them but IMO these people need behaviorists and psychiatrists. They don't need makeup and surgery.

Perhaps the most disturbing thing to me is that John Brennan was walking around with a rainbow lanyard

There were a few parts that The Atlantic left out, but otherwise I think they got my story correct

Apparently they involve going through people's garbage and collecting dry cleaning receipts.

Could sleep with boys and girls as covert agent.

Do you think people read this shite and take it seriously or is Atlantic basically a satire publication?
Posted on 3/21/17 at 8:07 pm to LSUTigersVCURams
A nice piece of propaganda. It really is.

When you put your 'identity' ahead of the job, you compromise the mission.
