Army vet gets modified
If you read the news out there, all veterans are either homeless, crazed killers or transgender wannabes – or a combination of the three. But, according to the Daily Mail there’s this fellow by the name of Mallon who coerced the Medicare system into rearranging his appearance so that he looks like a woman now;
[Unknown first name] Mallon, 75, of Albuquerque, New Mexico waged a long and difficult battle against the government insurance program, and claimed victory when a U.S. health and human services board ruled back in May that Medicare could no longer deny the service, which they deemed medically necessary for transgender individuals.
And now, Mallon says [he] finally ‘feels complete’ following the procedure.
Yeah, well, the National Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Disorders lists it as Gender Identity Disorder – it is a mental disorder and there’s no recommendation in the manual for cosmetic elective surgery. If the guy wants to pay for the surgery himself, that’s Jim Dandy – but not on the taxpayers’ dime.
I’m thinking that my idea of a “long and difficult battle” might differ somewhat from the Mail’s definition. Sorry, no pictures for this one – it’s just too disturbing to see a 75-year-old man who thinks he’s fooling everyone. You’ll have to go over to the link. But don’t say I didn’t warn you.

OH. Dear. God.
I’m sorry Jonn. I won’t ever look again. I promise. You warned me, but I couldn’t help myself. Please, please, please tell me how to get my vision back!!!
*eye bleach*….copious amounts, followed up with more *eye bleach* and then, even more *eye bleach*…
Try some mind bleach.
And a blessing from the local purveyor of your favorite spiritual being.
As well as a generous infusion (or two or three or. . . . ) of your favorite alcoholic beverage.
Mea Culpa, Mea Culpa, I should have listened to you folks. I am going to have to follow the advice of Streetsweeper and B Woodman. Bottle of Jamesons, rocks glass now in position, ah the hell with the rocks glass. I don’t need no stinking glass for that eye/mental damage.
I learned a looong time ago, that when JONN tells you not to look — you don’t.
What. The. Fuck.
And remember, folks – you and I paid for that.
“Your tax dollars at work.”
I’m sorry Jonn. I won’t ever look again. I promise. You warned me, but I couldn’t help myself. Please, please, please tell me how to get my vision back!!!
It bears a strong resemblance to many retirees in Yuma
I’m sorry Jonn. I won’t ever look again. I promise. You warned me, but I couldn’t help myself. Please, please, please tell me how to get my vision back!!! I’ll do 100 Hell you say birdbath’s.
Can I get some brain bleach, so I can forget what I just saw?
On behalf of my sex, I am so offended by this unutterable crap…. and I don’t give a crap who knows it.
woof
(apologies to dogs everywhere).
How in the heck does elective crap like this get approved on taxpayer money…
Time was 25 or 30 years ago, half the population of Trinidad CO looked just like that back in the days when “going to Trannydad” meant a six month stay in town. Just another reason for not eating your Fort Carson to Pinon Canyon convoy MRE until after you had cleared the city limits.
There’s ugly, then there’s Army UGLY!
That qualifies as General Fugly.
Yeesh!! I think the cat needs to bury that.
I REFUSE TO LOOK for myself, but it sounds like that thing is SO UGLY it looks like something the dog dragged in after the cat was through with it!!
Proud, I can only say that if someone is going to do the TG surgery, then plastic surgery should always be included on the menu… especially in this case.
It’s just frightening.
Judging from the descriptions already given – if I had a dog that ugly, I would SHOOT IT just to put the poor critter out of its misery!!
For some reason I thought of Bob Barker – “remember to spay and neuter your pets.”
Too bad it’s parents didn’t get that advice.
This guy/gal is one messed up unit. Even if he was a “woman trapped in a man’s body,” what’s even the point of doing this at such an older age? Is “she” going to go on net dating sites now, looking for some dude to do the wild thing with, at age 75?
Yeah, now she “feels complete”. I agree. As in “complete idiot.”
I betcha the ShOrTbUsWiNdOwLiCkEr would tap it if he/she/it had enough Lady Monkey Butt Lotion on hand for the both of them.
Can we hook “her” up with the recent winner of the Stolen Valor tourney? They now are made for each other.
What you guys don’t know….
I read some of the posts at the link so kindly and thoughtfully provided by SemperIdem.
There is a lot of bitchin’ going on in the he2she congro about the lack of lesbians making themselves available to the h2s’s, and how unwilling they are to do so.
Think about that for a minute.
I can only pray, at this point, that there truly IS a God — because it’s going to take a God to sort this mess out.
Very true.
I’m more disturbed by the fact that this elderly man went through hormone therapy in the first place.
There was a 10-year study done on horomone replacement therapy, meaning estrogens, that followed thousands of women. A large number of them were nurses. I was taking HRT at the time, the minimal dose, and had been taking it for 10+ years.
I read the results of that study, which were a sharply higher statistcal rise in breast cancer in those women taking HRT. It was not just intimidating, it was damned frightening. I discussed it with my doctor and told him that while I enjoyed the benefits of HRT, I did not want to be one of those statistics and intended to quit taking it.
Our bodies are made to do certain things at certain times. Our genes switch on and off like lights on a timer. I don’t mean to be cruel, but transgenders will pay on the other end of the line with the hormone therapy they elect to have. If their genetic makeup is truly that of the non-prefered gender, and they’re taking hormones to provoke the other response…it’s a time bomb, and cancers and autoimmune disorders are the main manifestation of long- term hormone therapy. I don’t truly care what someone else becomes to satisfy their “needs,” but the sad part is, neither does their body, and they WILL pay for it in the end.
Actually, PN – under Medicare, we’ll be the ones paying for it also.
Ticking timebomb is an understatement, PN.
And what happened to growing
old gracefully, anyway?
What the bloody blazes is that…THING…doing calling himself a woman?
You wanna’ hear what real women think about this abomination? Click here (I didn’t write this article, but I support what it says):

Mr Mallon, thank you for your service. Now get out of women-only spaces.
THIS!! So much this!!
No, you don’t want to know what REAL women think of that – that EEEWWWWW!
Oh. My. God.
Other veterans are waiting for LEGIT surgeries of ~medical necessity~ while this guy gets his pecker chopped off and some fake tits to ease his thinky pain?
This HAS to be Duffle Blog…
No, this is real life.
Sad but true.
…Kinda Hot…..
/channeling my inner Bernath
( TOTAL /SARC BTW )
There is no way in hell I’m clicking that link.
You and me both brother.
The individual is indeed butt ugly, but I’ve seen worse.
On the bright side, I guess maybe SoMeOnE wE aLl KnOw now has a chance to break a 40+ year drought . . . .
I’m with ya. If Jonn warns us, that’s good enough for me.
I looked, but then again I’m an amatuer costume/mask guy so it takes a lot to gross me out.
All he/she/it needs is a little touch up makeup,A blue/grey mix with a touch of brown, a couple of small latex prosthetics and a blood pack or two and
zombie movie extra.
Jesus H. Christ… 75 years old, you were WARNED, and y’all still clicked? If that ain’t the kind of morbid curiosity what causes people to slow down to stare at world-class goat-f*ck traffic wrecks, I don’t know what is.
Slow learners.
Your ears you keep, and I’ll tell you why: So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, “Dear God, what is that thing?
“To the pain”
It looks like Joni Mitchell.
Phildo’s mom.
It’s not the “National Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Disorders”. It’s the “American Psychiatric Association Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders”.
The DSM-5 which was released in 2013 actually calls it “Gender Dysphoria” and it DOES indicate that treatment can include “hormone therapy, related surgery, or psychotherapy or counseling to support their gender transition.” It is also noted that “gender nonconformity is not in itself a mental disorder.”

Struck a nerve, ByrdMan?
My best friend of more than 20 years is a female to male trans-gendered dude. Granted he paid for everything he’s had done out of his own pockets, but none the less.
If it’s going to be discussed we should be using the most current facts and medical opinions.
Using the most current facts and medical opinions is fine. Using public funds is not.
Bingo.
I don’t have a problem with some (IMO) confused dude getting (1) their pee-pee whacked and (2) a boob job. Their money, their body, their decision to “go for it”.
However, I do have a problem with using Federal tax money to pay for ANYTHING that is an elective procedure. And sex reassignment surgery is NOT something that is medically necessary. One can live a long and physically healthy life without it.
ByrdMan. I suppose we could offer one another links to hell freezes over. Here’s mine: http://cnsnews.com/news/article/michael-w-chapman/johns-hopkins-psychiatrist-transgender-mental-disorder-sex-change
I don’t have a dog in this fight but I will say this: The determinations as to whether one oddity or another is a mental disorder change over time, signaling to me that determinations are influenced less by science than they are by changes in social acceptance and perception of those oddities.
I’ll see your transgender “Army vet” and raise you a transgender Special Forces colonel, My former battalion commander. 😉

How dare somebody not want to hire a fucking nut job so far gone they are physically damaging their body because it’s so out of control.
This country I swear.
Since he/she used the VA for the sex change. He/she will get all the high dollar hormone treatments from the VA for free. Paid for by the tax players for the rest of it’s life. Unaceptable to me. Joe
He bullied Medicare into doing it, Joe, not the VA.
My only other comment on this individual’s choice and bullying Medicare into doing this instead of paying for it himself is the complete lack of dignity and self-respect he has shown.
Both of my grandmothers were decent, dignified women well into their 90s when they passed away. Neither of them had the benefit of estrogen replacement therapy because it was not available when they went through menopause. Even so, they aged with dignity and grace, and I have very fond memories of both of them.
At 75, almost all women have been through menopause, which can be hell on wheels or an easy passage, but no women I have known who have gone through it in the past 40 years have ever acted like damned fools.
A mutilated male still isn’t a female.
