“This is a great big fat ‘Oh, no,’” Anawalt said in reaction to Hegseth’s announcement. “We’re turning the clock back on rational healthcare. … I’m worried about the ethics. I’m worried about the health consequences. I’m worried about unnecessary evaluations, incorrect assessments, and incorrect diagnoses that lead to inappropriate prescriptions of testosterone.”

nothing will put fear in your enemies like declaring your army needs more testosterone...

[–] randompasta@lemmy.today 67 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It just means that Hegseth really likes hanging out with manlier men...For reasons.

[–] Blibly@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Clearly these men have convinced themselves that they aren't manly enough, whatever the fuck that means to these losers. Conservatives love inventing things to be scared about just throw it on the pile...

Have you seen kegsbreath exercise? It’s legendary! It’s absolutely the reason he wants more military men to get loaded up on the T, so they can be just like him.

[–] Blibly@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Nope. Can't stand looking at him. I'm immediately hit with the smell of cheap whiskey and drakkar noir. Eugh

Nothing like giving your soldiers an insecurity that they're not manly enough and that they have to take a prescription for it.

I'm sure that won't have any psychological consequences on the battlefield.

yea.

the fucking stupidity and incompetence of everyone he appoints is mind boggling

there will be more suicides, and no one will do anything about it

And it’d be the most tantalizing target in the supply line, like the Jem Hadar’s “Ketracel White” (from ST:DS9). But why bother? I’ve had numerous Endocrinologists say no to me because they were of the opinion, it’d make my ball shrink.

Obviously you should take large doses of estrogen to make them bigger!

Weren't they also eunochs?

Taking them out will be so easy. Just get darts for those massive balls, and play Bloons Tower Defense in real life.

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I am suddenly reminded of The Longest Yard movie where they gave the guards a bunch of estrogen.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

What would estrogen do to a cis male I wonder.

[–] frongt@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Same thing it does to a trans woman.
