That said, if he wants to be recognized as a woman, that means he wants to be placed in prison with other women, which is clearly an issue. IMO the military has no choice but to place him in a male facility and call him whatever he wants to be called.

- ZanyProgrammer 13y agoYou are aware, aren't you, that the military already pays for all sorts of prescription drugs for service members? What difference is there between estradiol/spironolactone on the one hand, and every other prescription drug that is paid for off post with Tricare or filled at an on post hospital? Except your revulsion towards transsexuality of course.
- nhangen 13y agoYou're reading into it and you're overstepping. I have no such revulsion. I was in the military, so I'm quite aware of the programs they offer. My point, if you'll read it, is that Manning no longer qualifies for those benefits, and that said benefits should not be offered by the prison system.
