Pentagon decided years ago transgenders are excused from the Air Force fitness test if they’re in the middle of their “transition." So...how fit is the US military? Maybe they should sit this one out.

It's common sense you don't put a highly suicidal group of people in a stressful environment with loaded weapons.

Surely they represent a very tiny fraction of the military? I wouldn't worry about it that much lol.

Looks to me like if anyone wants to become a tranny they just join the Air Force and get trannied for free. On the tax payer's dime. That is insane and very expensive.

Yes, including surgery and the whole 9 yards. That's a large part of why it was a disqualifying condition, they cost several times more to support than the average soldier.

Cannon fodder is cannon fodder. As long as they aren't making me go I'm fine.
