I think Manning and other ex-military TIMs highlight a lot of the very apparent problems with transitioning. Lots of men unable to cope with the kind of masculinity or trauma that comes to them in military situations, attempting to escape into Anima led fantasy.

They worry me the most because they’re often people inclined to anger or violence, and now the trans identity and the trans cause is the only way it’s able to manifest.

It’s honestly disgusting that a profession as prone to PTSD as the military allow people to go through with transitioning. It’s endemic, it’s reactionary.

Do you reckon if you told half of these lads when they joined that they’d leave as a “woman” that they would see any sense in that? Highly doubt it.
