Let's do some quick math on how many trans troops there have been vs how many troops have erectile dysfunction. Let's stop everything to cater to a fractionally small minority.

No one was advocating for policies akin to "stopping everything" to support transgender military members

Just like the bathroom bill of NC, this has created a problem that wasn't wasn't really one to begin with

Ten times as much for all the erectile dysfunction drugs, with the high end estimate of care for transgender members of the military. It could be as much as 20x the cost for care.

Transgender members of the military became allowed to serve openly without discrimination last year. Prior to that they could serve, but had to remain quiet and hidden.

This is akin to reversing the repeal of don't ask don't tell and then kicking out all affected service members.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/pentagon-to-allow-transgender-members-to-serve-openly/2015/07/13/fe9b054a-298d-11e5-a5ea-cf74396e59ec_story.html

Even the military thinks that the ban is outdated. They said as much years ago before allowing members to serve openly.

“We must ensure that everyone who’s able and willing to serve has the full and equal opportunity to do so, and we must treat all our people with the dignity and respect they deserve,” Carter said in a statement. He called the military’s current regulations “outdated” and said they were “causing uncertainty that distracts commanders from our core missions.”

The point he's making is that the excuse Trump offered of the cost of care is fucking absurd.

What? Get out of here with that suicide talk.

22 veterans kill themselves every day, but people don't use that statistic unless it can directly benefit them. Now people are using trans peoples' high suicide rates as a reason not to support them? Fuck that.

Because shit happens in the military that results in you having a rough time getting your dick hard. The military does, for the most part in my opinion, a pretty good job of paying you for shit that happened when you were in (especially if it's just throwing pharmaceuticals at you)

Now having said that, the question shouldn't be "why are their boner pills being paid for", it should be "how many of those dudes actually need the boner pills they're prescribed and aren't faking".

Also, related to the title, on the bright side you can have ADHD while you're in.

It's part of the general health care provision for military members (health care in the US largely being something paid for by employers as a perk of employment, rather than having any sort of overarching system). It's not so much "our soldiers need boners" as "a number of military members have sought medical help for their erectile dysfunction, and its treatment is covered under the plan we provided."
