I'm a trans guy in high school, haven't transitioned yet though. Senior year I'm thinking about graduating early and starting transition. After that year, I want to join the military (not sure which branch yet) but how can I do this?? Especially if I want to transition before that, and how long will I have to wait?

The army doesn't usually take mentall ill people, they usually make them

I can't speak to your specific situation but I can tell you that you have difficult times ahead OP. honestly you will probably not get many helpful answers here. you will have an easier time googling on your own, because you will want to read everything you possibly can about it. and look for a mentor in the transgender community.

ordinarily I'd recommend asking /lgbt/ but last time I was there, they were too busy being catty to each other to be of any help. but you could try there too.

good luck OP, I hope things work out for you.

>>17703713
Just volunteer for mine finding duty. You just have to walk ahead of all the soldiers and find ieds and land mines by stepping on them. Everyone wins in this scenario.

Don't do it. Coming from a military family, there's enough tensions in the military as of late, and having another mentally ill kid isn't going to help anyone. Everyone working with you will just have to bend over backwards to make special accommodations for you, and it's a serious risk to their career or life depending on what your doing.

This is the best advice.

>>17703953
I just want to serve the country, not be some sort of special snowflake that they need to make accommodations for. What type of accommodations would they even be? It's not like they don't have both male and females in the military already

hahahaha

with that squeaky trans voice you aint going far in the army mate. imagine hearing 'i dont know what ive been told' in that a chipmunk voice - the enemy will piss their pants with laughter.
sos for being brash but its the truth. your gonna be with a bunch of retarded bullys who were too stupid and aggressive for education or an apprenticeship so they joined the goddam army. They're gonna tear your ass to shreds love.

and dont forget sexual assault....your gonna have a /hard/ time

try something else babe

Go to >>>/lgbt/

You're not going to get any productive answers from these idiots.

>>17704181
Alright fine, yes I have. But this can easily be explained due to hating my body and feeling dysphoria. I know a lot of people that claim to be trans are usually p retarded and the type of people that major in gender studies and shit like that... I'm not like that, I just want to be a guy and fit in as a guy, not be a "transgender", but I see why I could be a problem for the army because of that I guess

Ok, because you insist on staying.

Nothing is going to be easy for you. Identifying as transgendered is going to be a divisive topic for everyone you meet. I will tell you that my whole family has military backgrounds and right now the U.S. military is doing a big overhaul on their acceptance of transgendered people.

It will difficult. People will make fun of you. People will call you a mentally ill freak of nature. The military is still very much a straight-laced boys club and even if you weren't transgendered if they sensed any femininity or weakness in you they'd make fun of you anyways, even if you were biologically a man.

Also, don't come here and get started trying to defend your decision to transition. Like I said, you're not going to get any productive answers here, just a bunch of armchair psychiatrists calling you a mentally ill faggot.

If you want to join the army, go for it. No one will stop you. It will be really hard though, and getting all those cornfed retards from middle America who were too dumb to go to college to accept you won't be easy.

>>17704223
Look, as soon as I pass as a man I'm not going to "identify as transgender" lol. Obviously if I don't have a dick yet, that makes it harder to cover up that fact. But yeah is there a certain branch more accepting of they DID know I'm trans? I'm not scared of being made fun of or anything, but just good to know

>>17704099
Your kind always leads to issues in the military. It's not always your fault, but keep in mind the average kid going into the military is probably from a rural area, not highly educated , conservative and fairly religious. Once one person finds out, you're going to have issues. The military itself is also not a place that deals well with diversity. It's set up to convince a whole bunch of straight, young men to follow orders, and any difference or diversity leads to the afformentioned issues. There could also be physical issues, but I don't know the specifics of how the transition affects the body in regards to physical strength

>I just want to be a guy and fit in as a guy
You will never fit in as a guy in the military. You won't fit in period. Don't kid yourself.
