Most major surgeries, which I am sure gender reassignment would be considered, prevent people from meeting requirements for entry into the armed forces. As a retired Vietnam and Gulf War veteran I am ashamed of the current status of our military services. The left’s social experimentation has weakened our ability to muster a dedicated force who would be willing to pick up a weapon and charge into battle. No doubt much of those entering service today would yell, “I did not sign up for this” and run the other way.

Lot’s of conditions do - psoriasis, for example.

Or look at all the kids who are disqualified these days because of having taken ADHD drugs.
