[quote=Anonymous]"The United States Military generally avoids recruiting people that require a daily medication for an illness (such as diabetes, thyroid conditions, and ADHD). It is best if you take a daily medication to discontinue use for a year before you apply to join the army."

Also, visible tattoos, prior criminal convictions, no high school diploma

Can otherkins enlist? Gender neutrals have their "they' respected?

Whole classes of people are kept out of the military for a variety of reasons.

How would you like to phase in the military restructure that would be required to treat everyone 'fairly'?

Right now the military has fairly competently worked out race and gayness, and is working on really difficult issues with integrating women in combat (Isn't it funny that this seems to be elective--what will happen when they start forcing women service members who are qualified but don't seek frontline combat to go?)

Trans previously could serve if they were not transitioning and did their trans thing at home. I think President Obama hugely disservice them by putting the cart before the horse on this one. To bring in the medical element as well as the fluid gender on active duty would seemingly open up all of the above. [/quote]
