Justmyview, transgender advocates argue that transgenders should receive tax-payer funded sex reassignment surgery because female soldiers receive free pre-natal, birth, and post-natal care.  They want to compare elective sex reassignment surgery with a natural human life process.  It is ridiculous.  Abortions and sex reassignment surgeries are elective procedures.  Female soldiers do not receive taxpayers funded abortions; it is not permitted in the military services except when medically necessary to save lives.  Why should transgenders be given an exception for an elective procedure? It makes no sense.
