      Both of my sons are in the ADF. One Air Force, one Navy. I promise you, both would fall over laughing seeing this. We have wonderful young men and women in the ADF, and most are incredibly talented and willing to defend us all. Then….there’s this ridiculous notion in a dress. It’s very disheartening and can obliterate moral.

    Captain > This is xray ten four, I need immediate fire support danger close, Colonel we are nearly over-run (bang bang sounds of gunfire and people dying)
    FOB Colonel > Get those 105 in the air, get him the fire support he needs, good men are dying god damn it.
    FOB Private > Colonel sir, its not a him, and they are not men. I will lodge a complaint about this order and how it was given.
    After an argument about gender politics in the forward operating base and the delay to get 105 in the air and on target everyone dies. End of story.

    Defending and killing is a masculine quality, not a feminine otherwise most prisoners in for murder would be women not men. To decontextualise everything, means anything can be what ever you want it to be. That’s not reality, that’s delusional and dangerous.

    Sorry Mr D'Hage, get with the times. The ADF now has little concern for leaders earning the respect of their predominantly male subordinates nor the retention in the service of these same subordinates. I served for 20 years, it never concerned me in the least the sexual orientation of my superiors nor my subordinates (as long as they didn't bring it into the workplace). The slippery-slope was the instant the ADF approved sexual orientation as the primary vehicle of self-image in the workplace. I would also argue that should these trans-individuals ever be captured by an enemy and identified, I am certain their treatment would not be consistent with their male counterparts.
