You could call Mass' General's transgender health program and they could explain it to you.

Transgender Health Program

With a focus on gender-affirming care, the Massachusetts General Hospital Transgender Health Program offers comprehensive primary care, endocrine/hormone management, case management and links to behavioral health and surgical services.

Logic and transgender politics never mx well.

Walk us through your logic there.

You present an argument for which you can provide no evidence because it's based on your personal bias.

On your thread about transgenders in sports, you harp on unfairness when there is no evidence that it is unfair and you ignore other, greater unfairness.

Its all just based on your personal bias.

Not everyone is fit to serve in the military. If those with mental health issues still want to serve their country, that's great, but find a way to do it in a capacity where people's lives aren't dependent on the judgement of someone who's taken a flight from reality.

So, that leaves out alcoholics. I think the SECDEF might have an issue with that. There are more mental health issues suffered by humans, but getting rid of the drunks will be a quick and easy good start.

How do you now it's not a well reasoned opinion? (Other than as assessed by your own personal bias against those who disagree with you politically.)

No, but equally confused.

Transgender people arent confused about their sex and gender incongruence. If they were confused then they would not have gender dysphoria. They would still be considered to be questioning instead of being dysphoric.

Yes, I think one can make a good argument that someone suffering from substance abuse issues isn't fit for duty.

Because it lacks well reasoning.
 
This will upset a few, but the military is not a place for this. There is a reason there is a backlash, and here it is, a decline in interest in seeing openly transgender troops.

The common thread is hate. Push, push push hate against anyone different. Transgenders are unfit. Immigrants are eating the pets. Massive immigrant crime wave. Tell the lies often enough to be believed. If you get caught, never admit you were wrong. Never apologize. Flood the zone with bullshit.

The Fascist Handbook in theory and practice.

Perhaps others "hate" trans people. I do not.
 
All fads run their course.

This one is a top-down affair, so did not originate as most do, but people are getting just as tired of it.

They claim any who do not glorify it are haters because that makes them feel better about themselves.

Theirs is but a vain attempt at superiority as they try to assuage their insecurity.

But was the red squirrel persona also transgender? :ROFLMAO:

It thought it was a gray rock infantry squirrel, but it lived in the trees. The geese thought it was crazy. The pigeons partied with it. The mallards said, "If it looks like a red squirrel, walks like a red squirrel..." The seagulls said, "I told you this is what happens inland."

Then they all lined up for chow.

Yes, Nat, one can make the argument that each and every one of us has a mental issue, the type and degree of which varies individually.

Beyond that overarching point, if faced with a choice in battle, I'll choose a sober gender dysphoric person over someone who has trouble keeping his BAC under 0.18%.

"openly transgender troops." Do they walk about with their unit buddies wearing badges or armbands telling the viewer that the person is transgender?
