Why Do Transgender People Join the Military in Such High Numbers?

This new article in Stars and Stripes explains why. It turns out that “nearly 150,000 transgender people have served in the military, or about 21% of all transgender adults in the U.S.” By comparison, “10% of the general population has served.” The numbers will certainly increase once the Pentagon officially lifts it ban on transgender service members. Most of the transgender service members are male to female. I guess joining the Army might not make a man out of you after all. It might be just the opposite. Does the military have to be 90% transgender before evangelical Christians finally say that perhaps it is not a good idea to encourage Christian young people to join the military?
