Want a free sex change? Join the military.

Want a free sex change? Join the military. By Hans Bader.

President Biden is directing the Pentagon to pay for sex-change surgery for transgender troops. …

The Washington Examiner reports that “taxpayers will now foot the bill for gender reassignment surgery for active military personnel and veterans, with some treatments costing upward of $200,000 under an executive order signed by President Biden.” …

If more transgender people join the military in hopes of obtaining the surgery, taxpayers could be on the hook for billions of dollars more in surgeries.

Sex change surgery is becoming a right:

The suicide rate of transgender people actually rises after they get sex changes, notes the Heritage Foundation. …

In 2018, the New York Times published an article titled, “My New Vagina Won’t Make Me Happy.” In it, a transgender person wrote about upcoming surgery:

“Next Thursday, I will get a vagina. The procedure will last around six hours, and I will be in recovery for at least three months.” Would this bring happiness? Probably not, because “my body will regard the vagina as a wound; as a result, it will require regular, painful attention to maintain.” Yet the transgender writer still wanted the surgery: “This is what I want, but there is no guarantee it will make me happier. In fact, I don’t expect it to. That shouldn’t disqualify me from getting it.” “No amount of pain …justifies its withholding.” “Surgery’s only prerequisite should be a simple demonstration of want.” …

A study in Sweden found that “ten to 15 years after surgical reassignment, the suicide rate of those who had undergone sex-reassignment surgery rose to 20 times that of comparable peers.”

Unnecessary:

The military’s purpose is to win wars, not promote “diversity.” As a result, it excludes most people from military service, for one reason or another. People are excluded for reasons as minor as having facial tattoos. Historically, transgender people were excluded, too, until late in the Obama administration.

Obviously a wining policy, President Biden. China approves.
