quote:

Military personnel who wish to dress as the opposite sex may now do so, according to an announcement from Defense Secretary Ashton B. Carter.


quote:

Carter said, however, that new recruits would have to crossdress for at least 18 months prior to joining the military, presumably to avoid last-minute transitions from one mode of dress to another. Still, if a member of the armed forces wishes to swap genders while serving on active duty, that person may be able to do so “if a military medical provider determines it is necessary,” according to reports.


quote:

If any soldier would like to take a further step and undergo gender reassignment surgery, the Pentagon would cover the medical costs, Carter added.

If those who serve can't celebrate their right to happiness and freedom then what's the point?

A bunch of young alpha males. Some poor. Some ignorant. All in barracks.

What could possibly go wrong?

After the 60 Minutes reporter was gang raped or the girl in India or Egypt was raped TO DEATH there was a quote on here.

"There is a way the world is, and a way you think it should be. When you confus the two, you are asking for trouble."

That's great but marginalized groups won't be marginalized until our numbers equal those of cishets.

Half the armed forces should be either homosexual, transgender, or genderqueer.

That really is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen posted on here. You really think they're going to make it mandatory to be gay to be in the US military? If you're that stupid then it's probably better you stay away from heavy weaponry anyway

Very sad if true. The US military is meant for inflicting pain and fear, no room for freak shows. Might as well start allowing violent convicted felons obtain the highest of security clearances. Not much difference. You have every right to live your life as a freak show, but not at the expense of the US department of defense.
