This includes restrictions on hormone replacement therapy, gender-affirming surgeries, and mixed-sex\u2062 housing. The \u200cauthor argues that the order does not ban transgender individuals from military service, but\u200c rather places \u200blimitations on services provided at public expense.<\/p>\n<p>The rationale given\u200d in a White House \u200ddocument is that the lengthy recovery and ongoing medical needs associated\u200b with gender transition can \u2063hinder military readiness. Critics,including lawmakers and\u200c media personalities,express concern that this could be framed as a civil rights violation. \u200dThe article suggests that the ancient context reveals a partisan divide, with previous administrations supporting \u2062accommodations for transgender service members.<\/p>\n<p>the piece posits that while transgender individuals can \u2063still serve in\u2063 the military under the new order, they will\u200d not receive the same medical benefits as other service members, drawing a parallel to \u200bthe uniformity expected \u2062of \u2064all military personnel. The \u2063author, Eddie Scarry, emphasizes the potential implications of such policies on military\u2063 effectiveness and the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">ongoing debate surrounding gender identity<\/a> and \u200dmilitary\u2063 service.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-body body-md bdr-top-black pt-30\">\n<div class=\"row justify-content-center\">\n<div class=\"col-12\">\n<figure class=\"article-thumbnail mb-30 mb-sm-60\">\n<div class=\"article-thumbnail-caption d-flex align-items-center justify-content-md-end label-xs mt-15\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-camera me-10\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Image Credit<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.army.mil\/article\/267818\/living_authentically_saves_soldiers_life\" target=\"_blank\">Sarah Patterson\/U.S. Army<\/a>       <\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-share text-center article-share-simple\">\n<h5 class=\"label-sm mb-10\">Share<\/h5>\n<ul class=\"article-share-list list-unstyled m-0 p-0\">\n<li class=\"article-share-facebook m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/27\/no-one-is-being-banned-from-the-military-radical-transgender-accommodations-are\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Facebook<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-twitter m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=No%20One%20Is%20Being%20Banned%20From%20The%20Military.%20Radical%20Transgender%20Accommodations%20Are&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/27\/no-one-is-being-banned-from-the-military-radical-transgender-accommodations-are\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Twitter<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-truth-social m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/share?title=No%20One%20Is%20Being%20Banned%20From%20The%20Military.%20Radical%20Transgender%20Accommodations%20Are&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/27\/no-one-is-being-banned-from-the-military-radical-transgender-accommodations-are\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"currentColor\" style=\"width:36px;height:auto;\" viewbox=\"0 0 92 93\"><path d=\"M69.444 55.716H56.772v10.37h12.672zM64.487 37.795V27.32H38.666v38.664h13.18v-28.19zM21.05 27.321h12.653v10.471H21.051z\" https:><\/path><\/svg>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Truth Social<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-link m-0\">       <button data-clipboard-text=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/27\/no-one-is-being-banned-from-the-military-radical-transgender-accommodations-are\/\" data-tooltip-content=\"Copied!\" class=\"clip tooltip\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-link-variant\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Copy Article Link<\/span>       <\/button>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\">       <a href=\"mailto:?subject=No%20One%20Is%20Being%20Banned%20From%20The%20Military.%20Radical%20Transgender%20Accommodations%20Are&amp;body=%20https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/27\/no-one-is-being-banned-from-the-military-radical-transgender-accommodations-are\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-email\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article via Email<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\"><span class=\"printfriendly pf-button  pf-alignleft\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist.com\/#\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"window.print(); return false;\" title=\"Printer Friendly, PDF &amp; Email\"><span id=\"printfriendly-text2\" class=\"pf-button-text\"><i class=\"mdi mdi-printer\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<p>For any self-identified transgender people with hopes of serving in our military, there&rsquo;s good news! You still can! Just maybe don&rsquo;t show up to the recruiter announcing that you have a penis and expect to be sleeping in the women&rsquo;s barracks.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump is reportedly set to sign an executive order that will prohibit taxpayer-funded accommodations for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/walsh-in-secretly-recorded-footage-pro-trans-doctor-makes-truly-insane-argument-for-amputating-teen-girls-breasts\/\" title=\"WALSH: In Secretly Recorded Footage, Pro-Trans Doctor Makes Truly Insane Argument For Amputating Teen Girls\u2019 Breasts\">trans-identifying people<\/a> in the military. That includes hormone replacement drugs, cosmetic genital surgery, cosmetic breast removal, and mixed-sex housing. Just as when Trump did this in his first term, the media are attempting to frame the event as a cruel setback for civil rights. During an interview <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/_johnnymaga\/status\/1883916673998373138\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">segment<\/a> on Monday, a CNN screen graphic described the coming order as &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-comes-through-for-8000-service-members-who-were-kicked-out-of-the-military-for-refusing-covid-vaccine\/\" title=\"Trump Comes Through for 8,000 Service Members Who Were Kicked Out of the Military for Refusing COVID Vaccine\">banning transgender service members<\/a>.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2 d-flex justify-content-center\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; \" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-5304694\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1463670073398-0\" class=\"mb-30\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>According to the New York Post, a White House document <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2025\/01\/27\/us-news\/trump-to-ink-new-executive-orders-today-banning-trans-service-members-military-dei-programs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">previewing the order<\/a> offers the administration&rsquo;s reasoning for the directive. &ldquo;It can take a minimum of 12 months for an individual to complete treatments after transition surgery, which often involves the use of heavy narcotics,&rdquo; it says. &ldquo;During this period, they are not physically capable of meeting military readiness requirements and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/medicare-advantage-plans-are-a-bargaining-chip-in-negotiations-between-hospitals-and-insurers\/\" title=\"Medicare Advantage plans used as leverage in hospital-insurer talks\">require ongoing medical care<\/a>. This is not conducive for deployment or other readiness requirements.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>In the coming days, we&rsquo;re going to endlessly hear the usual &ldquo;there is no evidence&rdquo; lines from the media and Democrats who would swear on a Bible that unnecessarily screwing with a person&rsquo;s physical anatomy and hormonal chemistry is no more disruptive than a routine check-up.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>So what if he had his penis split down the middle and sewn to his inner thighs? He &mdash;&nbsp;I mean, she<\/em> <em>&mdash; will be back on duty tomorrow! No fuss, no muss!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That&rsquo;s nonsense, obviously. It takes weeks to recover from a routine tonsil removal. Patients who undergo transgender treatments never do fully recover. The men who have their penises mutilated spend the rest of their lives requiring the use of a &ldquo;dilator,&rdquo; the purpose of which you can look up yourself. The hormone drugs are needed forever and by definition cause a chemical imbalance with a CVS receipt-length list of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/tests-procedures\/feminizing-hormone-therapy\/about\/pac-20385096#:~:text=Blood%20clots%20in%20a%20deep,ensure%20conception%20without%20infertility%20treatment.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">adverse side effects<\/a>, including weight gain, blood clots, and a higher risk of stroke.<\/p>\n<p>Asked during that CNN segment about the order, the Democrat trans-identifying state lawmaker said, &ldquo;There is no evidence anywhere that has been presented that transgender service members are anything but qualified to be a part of our military service.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Hmm. Maybe, just maybe, we haven&rsquo;t seen evidence presented about this because Presidents Obama and Biden, both Democrats, were in favor of the military accommodating trans-identifying individuals while Trump, as president, banned them. Where would the evidence come from, other than it being, I don&rsquo;t know, self-evident that an individual who requires constant medical intervention &mdash;&nbsp;from drugs to surgeries to therapy &mdash; might be an undue burden on military readiness?<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s worth reiterating that the coming order doesn&rsquo;t ban anyone from serving in the military. A man can believe he&rsquo;s a woman and still enlist. True, he&rsquo;s not going to get free elective surgeries on his genitalia, and he&rsquo;s not going to be assigned to use the women&rsquo;s facilities, but he can still serve.<\/p>\n<p>You know who else won&rsquo;t get those things if they want to serve in the military? Literally every single other person. It&rsquo;s called a &ldquo;uniform&rdquo; for a reason.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">      Eddie Scarry is the D.C. columnist at The
