"Here are some interesting facts.
1) During most of the Obama administration, it wasn't legal for transvestites to join the military. Right before President Obama stepped out the door, he issued an executive order saying the military should permit transvestites but should start admitting them only after he had left office. Perhaps Obama was rightly worried about the disruption that would be caused by a whole platoon of Mary Poppinses or Corporal Klingers and didn't want to take the heat when his efforts at social engineering in the military went bad.
2) Before Obama issued this executive order, transvestites didn't have the right to join the military. And yet until that time, not a single court found the "right" for cross-dressers to join the military. This "right" was discovered only after Obama legalized it, and his ability to legalize it, without an act of Congress, was questionable at best.
3) This "right" is a lot more than just allowing cross-dressers to join the military. It is a way for them to get free surgery and hormones so they can "Dr. Frankenstein" themselves at taxpayer expense.
