I’m with the VA for healthcare.

The vast majority of recipients are male, because women were few in service during the years that have turned veterans old, and needing more treatments.

The new text doesn’t seem offensive to me. The surrounding language is blah blah agenda, but the specific text isn’t bothersome.

I tend to agree with your statement. At the local clinic I’ve seen only one woman out of probably hundreds of old men. The old men are the Vietnam vets, of which include a very limited number of females. Younger vets are there from the sandbox wars, but they are men.

What I’ve found bothersome is some of their forms ask for a person’s pronoun. Also they continue to mandate those stupid covid masks while in the building.

The VA medical system and Vet Centers are separate entities. They are the facilities that treat women’s PTSD. And I’ve only seen a couple at our center. They are primarily treated for in-service rape, which does occur.
