You can have SRS, I disagree with employers having to pay for it. These surgeries should be self-funded, it's their problem that they feel like a different gender. I can understand the fear and the self-hatred that can come with Gender Identity issues. You can always finance SRS operations, I would just hate the fact of having to pay more for the sake of others in this regards. Now, since I'm not a complete ass-hole I have a idea for employers to be able to cover a operation.
Company A offers various types of coverage's, the only way for a employee to able to get a SRS surgery is to have the highest level of coverage. It works to be perfectly fair so other employees aren't getting screwed on the cost of there coverage's. It may be considered unfair to make them pay for the highest grade of coverage to get the operation. At the end of the day serious and costly cosmetic surgeries should not have to be floated by others to pay for it.
Being part of a company's insurance offering often includes elective surgeries. If I tear my ACL for the fourth time, (I've torn my left ACL 3 times already) it would be a strictly elective surgery if I chose to have one. People can (and do) live just fine with no ACL. There is no residual pain without meniscal damage, and the doctor's recommendation would likely be quad strength and stabilizers (brace) if I do anything active, and no impact sports. Now, suppose I wanted to play basketball all the time as a result of my lifestyle. It's my primary form of exercise, and I choose to find a doctor that will recommend and perform the surgery.
If my insurance covers elective procedures, should I be denied because I could live without the surgery?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
