I was doing field rotation that had open showers and had a thought about Transgender personell and how the be treated by other personell. I talked to a female an she said she upset if transwomen in her shower if they still had there male genitals. I asked a male the same thing and he said he wouldn't care. He said "If they identify as a man I will treat them like a man". How would you personally feel about this.

ADMIN NOTE: Be respectful to other RP members who may be in the transgender community.

It depends if the transwoman gets hard when they see nude women in the shower.
If they do, i'd doubt the transwoman's claim.

For me asked and answered. There was never a taste for mixing genders, how do we leap to whatever is a gender. I read people's opinions frequently, and most are different in person. Bottom line is that people in transition are in limbo, accommodations must be made as the policy has changed.

Therefore it is asked and answered. The real question is which shower do each one use? That needs to be determined at the top, and respected. As always in the military we have only to follow there orders, and regulations that guide us. Soldier up!

People that are in transition should not even be considered as qualified for the military then there is no problem with gender.

I don't see many trans, or anyone today banging the doors down to serve in the military today. We have the smallest military since the beginning of World War II.

I think that we're looking at a Supreme Court case in the not too distant future.

Back in the day (1980s) my wife was stationed with an MI unit in Germany. Her battalion had male and female soldiers which required some creative arrangements when it came to the "facilities". The latrines became unisex with the urinals covered and everyone using the toilet stalls. The barracks had one shower room per floor so one floor was designated as female and the others as male.
I imagine units will do something similar or designate separate shower times for each group.

If you are a mature adult, and in full control of yourself and are fully secure in your own sexuality, then you would not let something like nudity get in the way of acting appropriately and minding your your own business in the shower. Nudity does not equal an invitation for sex. It never has. Put your mind in the proper context, as all of your team needs to shower, like siblings, if that helps. And get used to seeing other peoples genitals. And stop fussing about it. Act like a responsible and respectful adult, and allow each other their own space. That means don't stare are each other. Do what the military does best, adapt and move on.

"feelings"....smh EVERYTHING is "how I feel"! ...stfu about hurt feelings. How are you going to feel when your fire team is short because a trans soldier has to dilate their fake vagina, or can't function because of a lack of testosterone...There is NO medical necessity for transitioning! Actually there is no such thing as transitioning. If you were born a male you remain a male.PERIOD! I REFUSE to participate in their mental illness!

Best solution that I can think of if transgendered is allowed would be having three different facilities.
1. Men’s
2. Women’s
3. Others

i would NEVER be comfortable around them. This would make our detachment more of a security issue
nor would i TRUST them to watch my back
i don't care who you are or what your are. But do NOT expect me to succumb to any pronouns or your mental instability this is immoral and unnatural
there is only 2 GENDERS --- following the science !!!!!!!!!! and many more mental illness

I believe those who want to be or believe they are transgender *should not* serve in the United States military.
