I don't notice anyone defending the rights of fatties not to get yelled at by their instructors during basic training, or the rights of chemo patients to serve. Why does the military need to expend resources on people with special needs? That goes for supplying tampons and the rest of that crap to women on the front lines, BTW.

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

I really don't see the independence. Where is it?

So which is it, is he a RINO or a faithful Republican foot soldier?

Bullshit.

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.

Sloppy wording on my part. Transition is currently the most effective known cure.

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.
27/07/2017 05:53:02 PM

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