LGB is not the same as T. We need to stop treating it all the same.

He's not a RINO. Just built his career on being independent-minded.

I also like that study because it uses correct terminology: transsexual, sex-reassigned.

Gender has had a non-grammatical meaning since the 1950s, and you know it.

Not bullshit. The rate decreases. It is still elevated relative to the general population.

Yes, but that just argues against transsexuals in the military either way

Yes, and I don't feel particularly strongly about the current fiasco for that reason.

Well, that's an argument for not putting them in roles where they can be captured, sure.

The argument is that transition corrects the dysfunction of gender dysphoria.
