We said it, didn’t we? All of us knew what was going to happen after DADT was repealed, and sure enough, here we are. Now that the repeal is officially in effect, what do we have but the trannies and the cross-dressers trying to get into the military.

Let me just make one thing clear. Right away, for the people who are going to jump all over me. Oh, you’re a bigot! You’re a hate-filled homophobe! WAAAAAAHHHH! Its the same ridiculous arguments over and over again. So, in the words of our president, let me be clear. No one, and I mean no one, cares about gays serving in the military. It has nothing to do with their honorable service. What it has to do with is where repealing DADT will take us, and we’re already seeing that. If all that would happen is that gays could serve in the military (which, of course, they already could), then fine. Most people know who the gays in their units are anyways. And while I have said this over and over again, it still doesn’t seem to sink in to people’s thick heads. So let me say it again, loud and clear. Pay close attention. I do not care if gay people serve in the military. That is not the point and it never has been. This is about the politics, the agenda. That is what has so many people angry. Things like this, which so many of us knew would eventually come up.

The gay rights agenda-pushers surely weren’t going to be satisfied with just letting DADT be repealed, something which is being broadcasted far and wide now. Did anyone really believe they wouldn’t start pushing for things like this? If you did, then the joke’s on you.

With homosexuals now able to serve openly in the military, the gay rights movement’s next battleground is to persuade the Obama administration to end the armed forces’ ban on “transgenders,” a group that includes transsexuals and cross-dressers.

“Our position is that the military should re-examine the policy, the medical regulations, so as to allow open service for transgender people,” said Vincent Paolo Villano, spokesman for the 6,000-member Center for Transgender Equality.

The Servicemembers Legal Defense Network (SLDN), which pushed to end the military’s gay ban, is urging President Obama to sign an executive order prohibiting discrimination based on “gender identity.”

It had wanted the order to happen on Sept. 20, the official date “don’t ask, don’t tell,” as the gay ban was called, ended via repeal legislation signed by Mr. Obama.

SLDN’s goal is contained on a Web page with the headline, “Working toward transgender military service.” The page states that a decision to remove the ban must be made at the Pentagon. “Relationships between transgender organizations, medical associations, and military allies will be crucial for advancing this issue,” it says.

Give them an inch, they’ll take a mile. Clearly, the issue was never honorable military service.

Now, here’s the laughable thing: that anyone could possibly believe that there is a place for transgenders and cross-dressers in the military. Allow me to explain.

The military is not a social experiment, which may very well be the most infuriating thing about all of this. It also is not all-inclusive. Not everyone can just waltz in and join. There are standards that must be met, and people are turned down from joining every day. Likewise, there are people currently serving who want to reenlist and cannot. This is because the military is not some kind of social club that anyone can just come play in. The military is structured the way it is for a reason. We need the best and the brightest, the strongest fighters and the fiercest warriors. (And by fierce, I don’t mean Tyra Banks “that outfit is fierce!” fierce.) Conformity and discipline rule in the military. Individuality is not promoted or encouraged. And it is that way for a reason. In the Marine Corps, for example, it doesn’t matter who in your unit went to boot camp at MCRD Parris Island or MCRD San Diego. It doesn’t matter where they went to SOI or where they’ve served before. You’ll know that the Marine you’re fighting with has the same training, the same skills, and the same discipline you have (in theory, anyways). There is a reason that service members can only have certain haircuts, can’t have visible tattoos and earrings and have to wear uniforms.

Explain to me how that works with cross-dressers and trannies, hmm? How does that uniformity and conformity work out when you’ve got a cross-dresser standing in formation?

The military does not exist to validate someone’s lifestyle, and it isn’t there for everyone to join if they want to. Some people get turned down. Deal with it. What is important is that we have the strongest military in the world, not that people with an agenda to push get to feel included. People who join the service need to be doing so because they want to defend their country, not because they want to force an agenda and fundamentally transform the military. This attitude that the military is for everyone is ludicrous, and the line needs to be drawn somewhere. All right, fine, DADT was repealed. Whatever. How far is this going to go? Clearly, as I stated before, this is NOT about honorable service. It is all about the agenda.

And let me save some of you some time. You don’t need to go around calling me a bigot and a homophobe (I already know that’s coming, its the most tired argument in the book, and holds about as much weight as screaming RAAAAAAACIST! whenever you don’t get your way). This has nothing to do with having a problem with cross-dressers and transgenders. I really could care less about what someone does in their own time. You want to cross-dress, go for it. The issue at hand is military service. And I am sorry, but there is no place for transgenders and cross-dressers in the military. Period.
