I have never served in the military as I am female and went into nursing. However, my father and step-father were military retirees. I don't have a problem with someone who is simply gay serving. I do have a problem with t*********rs serving. Being t*********r means you're on hormones, which affect mood and performance, not compatible with military acute readiness. If you're wanting to t***sition and have the military, it takes hundreds of thousands of dollars to do this, which includes pre-operative hormonal therapy, a number of surgeries and post op hormonal therapy.

Also, there's a VERY HIGH suicide rate among t*********rs. The military budget is more appropriately spent defending us and not on this idiocy.

No, of course not.
