I thought we sent all the little poor kids with no future to the army to get shot.

ARMY STRONG!

It is surprisingly common for trans men to hide their gender issues by being jocks or army men.

Manning actually said she joined the military in an attempt to put her gender dysphoria out of sight and out of mind. All too often we trick ourselves into thinking we can run away from it, but that seems pretty typically to make it even more painful.

Either way wanting to be something other than what you are is fucked. To put it bluntly.

Fortunately for you you will be able to avoid a 35 year sentence because the screeners will be far more vigilant against people who think they should rule the world without being elected or triumphing in battle.  So sad.

Then damn near every single human is fucked.

Wanting to be manager, or CEO, or a parent, or not a junkie, or a house owner, or a better person or a rock star, or a ball player... etc. everybody wants to be something they haven't yet been.

Being born with a mental gender that disagrees with a physical sexual characteristics happens in the womb. It is rare, but it is not fucked. It is simply life. Just like being born left handed or gay or Republican...

I sort of agree with OP, I don't know why he had to announce it to the media, especially at such an awkward time.

But why do you say he is "fucked in the head" OP? The dude wants to be a chick, so what?



Sorry, I guess I haven't reached the stage of enlightenment when you look down at your dick and say damn I want to be a woman and call it normal...




I don't think anybody claimed it's "enlightened" to be transgender, nor is it normal. Honestly it's a curse, more like a neurological disorder;  most of its sufferers are mentally scarred by the ordeal (as Manning clearly was, torture by the military notwithstanding), and the difficulty and cost of obtaining treatment is a cruelty.



God I wish just one time I could log on and read the replies to my thread and not lose IQ points! All I ask is ONE FUCKING TIME.

Look at the mods in this thread :givemehead:

I dont mean it in a negative way. Its just a strange disconnect between what you really are and what you think you are.

Do we medicate prisoners?

I only ask, because everybody saying Manning expects the Govt. to pay for surgery is guilty of conjecture. That has not been said by Manning's legal team.

Manning's lawyer is asking for a $20 per month prescription.

So again, do we or do we not medicate our prisoners?

Whatever dude it's still a problem and it was brought up because of this case.

Some people don't want cancer. Some people want to blame lifes probelms on not mutilating their genitals. Crazy.

Genitals have not been brought into this case. Not legally. Only by armchair lawyers like yourself.

Manning's team is asking for a medical prescription.

Do we or do we not medicate our prisoners?

You mentioned cancer. Do we treat prisoners with cancer?

What kind of medication? If its hormone treatments they're completely unnecessary. I guess he'll just have to learn how to deal with the fact that he is in fact a man and not a woman.
