    that wasnt the case until the gop made them the new cultural boogeyman with their re ed bathroom bills.

    i guess libs could have thrown up their hands and gone "whatever" but sometimes we care too much about other people at the expense of political strategy.
    It was an issue 9 years ago. A friend of mine who teaches physics in NISD had a transition female----->male hormone therapy taking hold. One fellow student brought up to the teacher "she" was in the boys bathroom. They had a policy meeting because the kid filing the complaint went home to parents. It was on its way in public schools before "we" heard about it.

    As is often the case, the technology (of the change in this case) becomes much better with time, and you got an issue.

    How the Military Became the Country's Largest Employer of Transgender Americans


    In fact, the available evidence suggests that transgender Americans serve at rates well above the national average.

    Though the data is sparse, studies estimate that trans men and women are anywhere from two- to five-times more likely to join the military as their cisgender (nontrans) counterparts.

    For all its perceived conservatism and raging heteronormativity, the United States Armed Forces is almost certainly the largest employer of transgender people in this country.


    Trans service members and veterans offer a variety of explanations for this disparity. For some, the military uniform functions as gender camouflage—a way to forestall uncomfortable questions from friends, family, or spouses.

    For others, joining the armed forces offers financial security and community to a group that is disproportionately denied both.

    As both a hiding place and a safety net, the military has become an unlikely refuge for thousands of transgender Americans.

    Kind of annoying these people have taken over the liberal movement. I mean I got nothing against em but they're like .01% of the population and they really freak out middle America
    It's all just misdirection. Transgender rights, abortion, guns, religion...

    Just want to make sure that people don't focus on how they are getting ed by BigPharm, BigAg, BigFinance, etc.

    A White House Official Just Admitted The Real Reason For Trump’s Transgender Military Ban

    Axios reporter Jonathan Swan asked a Trump administration official what the real reason for the ban was, and the aide confessed that the president’s motives were purely political.

    “This forces Democrats in rust belt states like Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin to take complete ownership of the issue,” the official said.

    “How will the blue collar voters in these states respond when senators up for reelection in 2018, like Debbie Stabenow, are forced to make this a key plank in their campaigns.”

    This importance of this startling admission cannot be overstated.

    First, it reveals that the President of the United States is exploiting not only the LGBT community but the armed services to score political points.

    Trans and gay are an abomination before the Lord. I thought you went to Catholic school and knew all about the Bible Blake?

    most catholic schools have long since abandoned dispensationalist theology and/or literal hermeneutics.

    I think it's a stupid move by Trump, but are there really 15K+ transgenders in the military? That seems hard to believe.
    I doubt it. I think they are just making a rough guess using the approximate percentage ~.01% of trannies in the general population and applying it to the military.
