/Spanish soldiers changing gender to female for added benefits, higher pay: ‘On the inside, I am a lesbian’
Spanish soldiers are changing their gender from male to female to earn certain benefits only available to females, including higher pay and better sleeping quarters, due to a self-identification law aimed at helping transgender people.
Forty-one men in Spain’s north-Africa autonomous city Ceuta have made the drastic decision to change their gender on official documents from male to female since the so-called “Ley-de-Trans” or “Trans Law”was implemented in March 2023.
Of the men in Ceuta who’ve changed their identity, only four have also legally changed their name.
A majority of the now-female soldiers have kept every other aspect of life, including male genitalia, sexuality, and even facial hair.
“On the outside, I feel like a heterosexual man, but on the inside, I am a lesbian,” Army Corporal Roberto Perdigones told Spanish newspaper El Español. “And it is the latter that counts. This is why I made the legal change to become a woman.”
Somehow I sense that these soldiers aren’t using the program in the good faith its woke authors intended, and expected. Too bad.
