Quote:Well from my understanding, the disability argument people have been using isn't that trans folks wouldn't be able to perform well. It's that they would need to take a lot of time off for surgeries and therapies, and would not be deployable because the treatments they need aren't available overseas. And there's also the issue of costs to the military that could go towards safer equipment, newer planes, etc. That is their argument as far as "disabilities" goes.
Study already addressed that the recovery time is not much greater then standard injuries and in some cases less so. And the cost argument does not work because it's moderate at best compared to other shit the military wastes money on . like the 5 times cost on freaking Viagra were those people going on about that ? I think not.
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
