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.

I am retired now, but in my youth, I always advocated to those who supported gay rights in military that new billets would have to be built that allow Straight male and female and Gay and lesbian. That is what I said as it had to do with the mindset of the 1980's and 90's. Well, those building never got built so it shows what I knew. This issue becomes even harder and gets down to some core & religious beliefs of people on both sides. I am not sure there is an easy answer, and I don't envy the commanders who develop these policies.

Very sorry you were assaulted by lowlife comrades.
I am old school, a Military Brat plus my own 24 year carreer Army and Air Force.
Since i was a youngster in DODS I have respected and admired WACs, WAVs, Donut Dollies...... your courage, dedication and love for our country. It was terrible before all this woke alphabet BS. Now I really fear for our military and the future of our country.

I would skip showering and just take a canteen bath or something. Even though the Army just about lost its mind, most soldiers are going to know better and try to avoid seeing what they shouldn't be there.

Just wash your butt, don't stare at the other person's junk no matter what form it takes, be respectful and exit. As Ling as the troop is next to you watching your 6, that's all you need to know

If still serving, though I might disagree with the policy, I would respect all. My Christian beliefs challenges me to be kind. I do sympathize with women who might have to shower with biological males. Already, in civilian schools, there has been rapes and we are talking in grades 12 and under. Women deserve respect, privacy, and safety. In my humble opinion.

Blindfolds! What you can't see can't offend you. In many areas around the world, they have unisex bathrooms. I have delt with trans-men and many, many times I had forgotten they were physically female. Also watch Starship Troopers a few times. the key is focus on who they are and not what they are. Sure, it may feel awkward to you, however if you are professional and mature it will not matter. Do you have a female Doctor? Do you every time she makes you turn you head cough, pop a woody, or checks your prostrate? I have a female doctor and my answer to my question is no. Why because we are professional, she is doing her job and I am checking on my health, just as if you're taken a shower you go in you shower dry off get dressed and go. What else are you going to do in an open shower? Be professional and mature

Oh my! Transconfusion
Males to the male shower and females to the female shower. Super simple
Give no attention to their delusion.

Just give the TRs their own shower room. problem solved. Women should not be in a position like this in the first place.

I think they should all be separated in bathrooms and held equally accountable during work/battle hours. We can all act like Klinger during times we are not working
