This will be interesting. If the bathroom thing blew up everyone. This will certainly cause a nuclear meltdown.

The comments on the military.com website were not very nice. 

They did have one good point though.  The VA currently isn't even doing a very good job taking care of veterans with service connected disabilities.  They need to fix that.

Yeah they are not nice comments. Most are just based off of ignorance of the subject. I myself was ignorant of the subject till I realized I suffered from gender dysphoria. The ignorance will only be lifted with awareness. Some will never accept or tolerate but there can be a future with education and information. Take the civil rights movement for instance.
